Shouldnt you expect these guys to be able to pick up an NFL defense without needing it to be so simplified? If Golden's defense is struggling after 6 or 7 weeks should he be blamed for not having a more simple defense too? or should the players be expected to learn what Golden wants them to do in his particular style defense?
Some of the best laid plans fail, simply because they are too overly complicated to be executed properly. Example? Bill Lazor was a mastermind offensive strategist, however his plays were so complicated with so many checks and options that a pretty decent Bengals offense could not run them effectively. Sometimes the best plan is the one that your players can execute to perfection. Let the scheme grow with the team, not the other way around.

Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
