4 years as a Defensive Coordinator
3 of those defenses finished top 3 in yards
2 of them were top 5 in points allowed
They all finished no worse than 16th in take aways
One of those defenses made it to the Super Bowl (held the Patriots to 16 points and 320 yards in the AFC title game)
That's about as sparkling as a resume gets in only 4 years. Heck, his showings as a DC are what got him 2 different HC jobs.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
