"Bettcher spent five seasons in Arizona (2013-17), including the final three as defensive coordinator. During his tenure as defensive coordinator, the Cardinals ranked in the top six in the NFL in total defense each year, while ranking fourth in total takeaways (82) and defensive TDs (11). Bettcher also guided six players to Pro Bowl selections and four to All-Pro honors. In 2017, Arizona ranked third in rushing yards allowed per play and sixth in third-down defense. The Cardinals posted a league-leading 48 sacks in 2016, led by DE Markus Golden (12.5) and OLB Chandler Jones (11). Bettcher joined the Cardinals as outside linebackers coach in 2013, helping Arizona lead the NFL in rushing yards allowed per game (84.4). In 2014, the team's 18.7 points allowed per game was the fifth-best average in the NFL."
Yeah, Bettcher has a good resume' man. Better than Lou had before coming here.

While someone who knows his system could copy it, it is the in-game adjustments Lou makes that makes him such a dangerous DC. He's pretty good for a guy no one wanted and only got hired because no one else would work for Zac. Remember?
I remember that lol
I also remember me wanting to get rid of Lou after the one terrible season. Thank God I was completely wrong.
Takes a bit to get the trenches solidified and get the players you need for your scheme. Lou's in game adjustments are the best in
NFL in my opinion, this is what makes him special. Like Romo was saying, our Defense under Lou doesn't get worn out, they learn as
the game goes on and take away the Offenses strengths.
