I feel like it would be viewed universally as a great move, but what if our D flopped again? Would that move be considered terrible in retrospect? If our d finished say 20 last year, and we kept Austin on, would we have been okay with it?
It would be hard to knock them for trying with Del Rio. He's been a DC for 4 years and his defenses were great every time.
Even if that somehow failed, you'd look at the resume and still understand why they made the move.
And no, I wouldn't have been okay with 20th or worse. I don't know why anyone would.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
