David Merritt will be our DB's coach. Great, since he's worked with spags and been great with DB's. Unclear what will happen with Harris. Since he's an assistant, I'd imagine the Chiefs are fine keeping him.

I want to go rub it in but I've been banned on Catspause for about 8 years now.

**** those hillbillies.

Marty is Da Man!

@Jacobs71: If you need anymore confirmation, Matt House’s bio is officially gone from the University of Kentucky website.

Must admit, I had my doubts on Spags ability to really improve our position coaches. Glad to be proven wrong.

As a person whose ancestry resides in those "hills" from Scotland - I take great pride in that term.

YES, IF I STILL HAD ME A BOAR HOG I'D JERK THE HELL OUTTA THAT SUMBITCH!

Seems like everything I've read about the hire, it seems like a good one. Really don't care who the coaches are, as long as the can freaking coach, make adjustments and have a proper defensive game plan and utilize the players to their ability and scheme them in the right system.

So basically the opposite of Suttons defense...

Yep, under Jim Schwartz.

With the way House utilizes his linebackers to slow down the spread, I expect DOD to flourish under his coaching and develop into one of the better coverage linebackers around.

Hopefully, he can get Hitchens to realize the potential he was starting to show in Dallas, too.

Very exciting that we got this move done.

I hope this dude is worth all the trouble (and the expense).

After all this, he'd better have a method of infusing linebacker skeletons with adamantium and they'd better be breathing fire, playing downhill, and sending RB bitches to the bench on a regular basis.

First 8 games: man, **** these new defensive coaches. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

Last 11 games: I’m not sure what happened at the midpoint of the year, but this defense came slings and I killing it!!!

(It’s gonna take time for the players to adjust to the new scheme)

Perhaps they are this aggressive going for this particular coach because they think it means they won't have to go out into FA overpaying for a starter. They might think a lot of the players just need to be developed and coached up. I can't say one way or the other, but I bet the new coaching staff gets more out of the roster than Sutton did.

I love how seriously they are taking these hires.

Again, this reads to me like a HC in Andy Reid who knows they are close to winning it all and potentially building a dynasty.

Ive never been excited about a position coach hire, but im ****ing pumped.
