I certainly hope it won't return to the weak-ass zone off coverage that got nickel-and-dimed all day long underneath (See LBs again) as it was obvious to everyone that this team has the talent in the secondary to play man. By the end of the season, even with the beat up roster and pathetic LB play, the defense was solid.
The new coaches have a whole Offseason to go back and watch what went wrong last year and what the players were good and bad at. I doubt we go back to that soft zone that obviously didn't suit our players and made us the worst Defense in the league last year. You are right, once Marv took over the playcalling and we started to play more man we were solid again.
Pretty obvious to look at the night and day scenario that played out last season.
