As I've stated before, I think the defensive improvement happened not because of Herm, but because of another year in Gunther's scheme and the addition of Hali, Page and Ty Law. I think that was inevitable.
I also hope that Solari performs better this year but it seemed to me that he called his best games when Huard was under center. Maybe it was the so-called "reduced playbook", maybe it was chemistry. But it was Solari's first year as an OC in the NFL and it went "okay". Hopefully, he'll improve. But I think it's unrealistic to expect him to produce AS and Martz types of numbers.
Some people have a gifts, others work harder than the next guy to compensate for their lack of gifts. I think Solari falls in the latter of the two categories.
