Can you name any good DC's that
don't have good talent on the defensive side of the football - That are currently successful?
You have to have talent in this league to succeed (as for coaches). If you don't then you're just floating up shit creek w/o a paddle.
He probably wasn't the best DC, but he wasn't the worst either, regardless of what the numbers indicated while he was here as DC during his 2nd stint. We didn't have really any talent on the defensive side besides Jared Allen while he was here. DJ was inconsistent at best, we had 2 old CB's in Surtain and Law, slow safeties in Wesley, Pollard, Page. Which the latter 2 actually are decent safeties, they just shouldn't be starting.
He probably more so was a less than average talent evaluator. I mean the Siavii pick among others I'm sure, he was responsible for. That's probably where he was at his worst IMO. Letting Scott Fujita go....
