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.
I have been reading up and looking for all interview material and so forth I can find on Lou Anarumo and have to admit I am starting to feel pretty good about the guy. I like that they have brought in a young guy to coach our LBs. I think the role of the modern day LB was lost upon Haslett and I just have not seen any improvement in the position since he has been with the team. Rather even a decline in the play of some since he was the coach.
I think we have some kids in the LB room that actually have some athleticism and talent and look forward to seeing what they can do under a new coach.
