He knows his business unlike other current DC.

I have to admit, I was concerned at the time he was hired. I knew only that he'd been the DC for NYG when they beat Brady and the Pats the first time, but really didn't know anything else about him.

Then I found that article in which they ranked him among the top-10 DCs in the league before he stepped away for that season and felt a little better about it. Actually, I think they ranked him 10th, lol.

But when I saw what he was able to do with Breeland and Chav, and how he challenged Tyrann to be the Swiss Army knife of the secondary, how he aggressively called press/man coverages when almost every DC had defaulted to some kind of covr-2/-3 zone or whatever passive BS scheme everyone is still running, and finally how he brought all those exotic blitz schemes, that's when my gut told me Spags was the answer to winning a SB in my lifetime.

I could ramble on almost endlessly about how great I think Spags is (I know I've already done it in the past, lol), how he's the best DC the Chiefs have ever had, blahblahblah, but I'll just say thank God for Andy having the vision and guts to hire Steven Spagnuolo.
