For defense it's not as simple as man and zone, but rather there are calls that go along with plays based on offensive alignments and pre snap looks that change people's responsibilities. Often when you see a guy running free and two guys looking at each other confused it's not that they didn't know the play, they may have read the sight adjustment differently then another person causing a blown coverage. All we heard last year after Marvin took over was the defense under Austin was too confusing and convoluted It sounds like Anarmo has once stuck with the simplicity approach probably asking guys to read and think less.
We have a lot of talent on the defense, outside LB maybe, so I don't think the issue there was ever truly talent. I think the defense only needs to be middle fo the back for this team to have success.
Yep
How many times last season under Austin did you see the DB's and Lbers all staring at each other with the WTF look after a play ? I strongly feel that was one of the main problems with his D, just to complicated on assignments in coverage. To easy to misread what you were supposed to do.
Hopefully Anarmo's D is more KISS method and the DB's can be more free to do what they do.
