I wouldn't fire Spags during this season, but if the defense finishes anywhere near the bottom and it costs us another big playoff collapse. You bring in someone new for 2020.

I would have preferred staying in a 3-4 and bringing in a LB, S and CB.
Now that they switched and gutted the roster for players that would fit in the new system you have to stick with it at least two years. Switching DCs and systems and letting them bring in "their " players just kills overall development and leaves you with players who don't fit, dead cap space, more learning curves and the inability to use resources on offense.

What the **** are you talking about Veach for? We’re talking about Spags and DC’s. I never once said that this defense was even close to complete. Just because I expected improvement doesn’t mean I thought we had the talent for a top 10 defense. I said top 15-20 was the best we could hope for in year 1 of a complete rebuild. Stop ****ing putting words in my mouth bundle of sticks. I don’t deal in terms of suck or great with nothing in between like your reeruned ass.

It's all a bunch of nonsense anyway. Just what kind of DC is going to be available at week 6 of the regular season? Just how many DCs better than Spags are out there looking for a job? You realize that prior to the season, Spags was considered one of the top ten DCs in the league, right? And that there are typically less than 7 really exceptional DCs in the league at any time? The rest are JAGs or worse.
Unless Greg Manusky is waiting at home for a call, I think any move right now is 100% going to be a downward move. We're better off seeing what this defense is capable of by the end of the next season, when hopefully most of the players are healthy and on the field. Even then we might want to stand pat, unless Wade Phillips or someone on that level becomes available. Last edited by Megatron96; 10-22-2019 at 07:20 PM.. |

My hope is that Rivera becomes available when we have a need and he takes over for Spags. |

Do you think Andy and Veach would even consider firing Spags after 6 games? After their star player has dealt with multiple injuries When their other star DL hurt Another DT went on IR His MLB is hurt One of his corners just came off suspension This big of a defensive overhaul is going to take time. No way would they even consider firing Spag until he’s been given a legit shot at doing the job they hired him for. |
