New DC not fixing this

[RealSNR]

That's not a ****ing reason to not get a new ****ing defensive coordinator.

****ing reeruned butt****ing moron.

There were excuses after 2013. Excuses after 2015. 2016. 2017.

This thread probably isn't trying to defend Bob, but to pretend that we all think a new defensive coordinator is the magical "fix-all" is WAY more dishonest.

Do we need a better defensive coaching staff?

The answer is ****ing yes. We also need better players. But we also need better coaches.

So go do the one ****ing thing we haven't done since this defense slowly degraded into the abortion that it is after 6 years. Get a new defensive coordinator. We've tried to acquire new and better players. Draft, free agency, and trade. We will continue to try to find things that work. Until we do, though, please just get ****ing rid of Bob. His shitty ****ing resume speaks for itself.

It's not ****ing hard.

100% right just hope they fire everyone on that side of the ball. Let the new DC pick his coaches

For my part, I don't disagree, Mr. RealSNR.

The problem as I see it is that we can hire on a new DC who may or may not have a system that may or may not fit a majority of our existing marginal-to-bad players. Then what? We have to start rebuilding the defense (such as it is) from ground up? I'm okay with that in theory, but we should be prepared for the fact that a rebuild of that nature takes years.

This isn't an easy fix, my friend. [Insert another 12 paragraphs of FAX bitching like a stiffed desert whore about Dorsey.] We are in a pickle when it comes to defense. Cap-wise. Talent-wise. Coaching-wise. Every whichaway you can think of, really.

Even a changeover to something like a 4-3 isn't going to take that long. And the way I see it, there will be players out of position a lot if we make a switch next year.

So? There were players out of position THIS YEAR when we had the old scheme in place!

It's not like it can't get any worse, right?

That's where we shall be forced to disagree, I'm afraid.

The difference between the 30th and the 31st ranked defense can be a few yards over the course of a year. Or, it can be a heck of a lot more.

I'm not saying I have the answer. I don't. But it can, in fact, be worse. And given the quality of players and the cap issues we're living with, it can be much, much worse. I'm all for breaking eggs, but I'd like to know what we're planning to cook.

While I'd like to say you're right, and perhaps you are, do you remember the collective (I'm not saying EVERYONE agreed but a shit ton of people did) rally cry all off-season? "It's not like it could get much worse," and, to my amazement, it in fact did get worse. Substantially. **** man, even with last year's D we may have won the Superbowl...

Statistically this was on of the worst defenses of all time, so there is not much downside anyway

That's so true. That's exactly why now is the time for change - even if means changing most everything on defense.
