A superbowl and many winning seasons. Its the offense that was the reason they didnt go further.. Im not asking Lovie to be a head coach, only control the defense.

Yes but the primary coverage they use is the tampa 2. They mix it up and cloud but typically in base front, they're playing tampa 2.

Bit of an over simplification. They use a bunch of coverages including man.

Yup. I'm being a lazy bastard today, for obvious reasons. :)

Nobody can blame you. Im pretty giddy too :D

If we land Heckert + Dorsey I'm going to lose my mind.

Right now, it sounds like either/or not BOTH.

The base defense is Tampa 2.

We don't have the personnel in the front 7 to field it. Forget about the corners.

Let me live in my fantasy for right now. LMAO

****, its like the dream team of coaching staff and front office guys.

wake up!!!!!!!

you are having a wet dream

I could see us being a hybrid/multiple front defense. 2 downed linemen/3/4 with different coverage packages

we can't cover with 4 LBs .. but cant rush with 3 DL ... we screwed .....

I don't know. But a lot of the success of the Reid hire will depend on who they hire for defensive coordinator, and I really hope the way he shitcanned Castillo isn't going to come back to haunt him.

My big concern with Reid right now is that he doesn't have a defensive identity. That's actually an understatement. He has been completely clueless on what kind of defense he wants.

I'm also very, very worried that Heckert will move the team to a 4-3. I don't want to again fall into the trap where we have a front office that only knows how to run one scheme. Keep in mind that Heckert took a 2-gap 3-4 under Mangini and turned it into a 4-3. For that matter... keep in mind that Heckert hired Jauron, who is now a "free agent."

I hope there isn't croneyism, because it's possible our top 2 guys could be Todd Bowles or Dick Jauron. And neither of those options are exciting at all.
