Does not excuse them for looking horrible on opening drives however. That is primarily due to teams throwing out of our base front (a 3-4, odd) and our failure to get a pass rush.

The talent is there.
Romeo does not know how to motivate and lead. He is good at the coordination stuff.
I really like the guy as a DC. He shouldn't have been hired as a head coach. He took the players out of the weight room and put them into the film room, and now they're soft. He skipped tackling drills and now our players forgot how to tackle. Our defense went from wanting to punch you in the throat to playing read-and-react. And we're making mental mistake after mental mistake. Our special teams, which are usually a testament to the discipline of your team, keeps making mental breakdowns.
While I agree with you, Romeo's still going to get the team to underperform.
