Once again, just because you see something in public does not mean it is the same behind closed doors.
Furthermore, not everyone agrees with you that the defense is to blame. Not everyone agrees with you that this defense is not making improvements. That is YOUR point of view.
DV sees good things and bad things, and he and his coaches will address both of these aspects with their players at the appropriate time. If you ignore the good things the players do and simply berate them all the time you will lose their respect. Just as is the case with any employer. Vermeil's job is to COACH, and that is what he is doing. He has a proven track record of turning teams around, including our own, and I am willing to give him the benifit of the doubt and assume that he has at least as much an idea about the game and the job as you and I, if not more so.
And considering he is the HC and making the big bucks, and you and I are not, he probably does know the game and the job better than we do. Does that mean that as a fan I am not going to question some of his decisions? Of course not. But until the team definitivley starts showing a regressing trend, I am not going to question his over all ability to do his job.
