So far he's acquired CMIII and who? No impact from Perry so far & being on IR gives him an incomplete grade so that's an unknown. Walden is flashy but terribly inconsistent. Jones, no. Zombo is an enigma. In back-up roles periodically he shines but an every-down player he is not. Francois is ST all the way. Every other LB left is an inside player, not a pass rusher. They're either under-sized or lack the technique to out-hustle huge offensive tackles. We've had four draft classes to stockpile these supposedly plentiful players & yet here we are with CMII being double-teamed & almost 600 yards yielded in a playoff game. I don't think Capers takes the fall for this since players must play. Coaching only gets you so far. Dom is a proven commodity with significant credentials to show for his efforts over the years. I think it's just a re-group situation, get our injured players healthy & get this thing rolling again.</blockquote>
