Doug Pedersen has never been an OC, so is a question mark, and Bob Sutton struggled in his previous stint as a DC, though he gets a pass because of who he worked for.
But at this point, he could be the next Gunther Cunningham, for all any of us know.

Pederson may be a fresh OC, but with guys like Reid, Ault and Childress in house to help his development and his long term relationship with Reid...I kinda expect him to do well in that role.
I agree with the Sutton comments...when Ryan got to NY, the defense started playing much better because of increased aggressiveness...hopefully he learned from that and will bring that level of aggressiveness with him to the defensive gameplans in KC, but our expectations should be tempered.
I actually think Rex may well replace Sutton next year...at least I hope he does, or that Sutton finds a way to get 40 sacks out of this defense.
