That was why when Lou finally bowed to reality and simplified the defense the play improved, and it also was his death knell. Golden's whole rep is around coaching players up and making the calls and alignments of his defense digestible by players so they concentrate on play on the field and not trying to understand the scheme.
Yep, too complicated of a scheme can really hamper young or new player's ability to adapt. Sure hope Golden can get his Defense up to
speed quickly. Also like the thought of adding Za'darius Smith if the Trey and Shemar crap keeps going on any longer.
