It was just so damn obvious what our Defense was good at and what it wasn't that is was unfair to the rest of the guys.
Overall we have a lot of great players on D but the Linebackers and namely their coach were just not up to the task at all. I also believe our LB's aren't nearly as bad as Haslett made them look, coaching is a big damn deal man. So happy we have a new LB coach, been harpin' on Haslett since he got here. 3 years later they finally make the right call lol
Coaching and the scheme, absolutely. Austin was a swing and a miss of a hire, and I am hoping for a more aggressive scheme with the new regime. 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.
