He may not be worth a damn, but it appears there'll be less confusion on assignments, and if it's right, it's right, if it's wrong, it's wrong. After watching the defense wonder around aimlessly on the field last year with players looking at each other shrugging, this is at least a step in the right direction. I know, I know, it's WAY TOO EARLY, but if he allows them to play fast and simplify things, that can't be anything but an improvement.....even if it's marginal.
Didn't like the guy's resume, and for now that's pretty much all we have to go on. Then again, no one liked Jay Gruden's resume either. We'll see. I certainly wish the guy great success. It'd be difficult not to improve on Teryl Austin. That may have been the worst Bengals defense I've ever seen. No exaggeration.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
