I also believe a switch would effectively deem Geno mostly useless, but I’m no expert. Plus our LBers are horrible in space except VB. Maybe a 3-4 could mask some of that but I’d expect that it would be moot.Not to rain on your parade, but we have heard this all before, "We are a player or two away". This defense needs a good safety and 2 LBs to be good. I won't forget a whole new philosophy to boot.
They are trying to win now, which is part of the reason Marvin was brought back. The best course of action would be to build on the foundation that is here, with the talent that’s here.
In my opinion, this is a (potentially) championship caliber defense. With a little more help in coaching & a player or two, they can be deadly.
The offense isn’t really that far off either, if they can fix the blocking & get another receiving threat. Boyd has that potential. Kroft is a decent TE & Mixon & Gio could be the best duo in the league - that potential is there.
I think we just may surprise some people next year, including many fans.
