[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 434497, member: 2299"] Fortunately the only two options aren't Paul Johnson and Chan Gailey. Gailey was fired and deservedly so. Gailey also had a better defense. Offense isn't the only thing that matters. Because we don't do things even close to what a lot of other teams do. The argument always comes back to the idea of practice squads. The problem is who do we recruit that can even pretend to be a pro style QB? Who do we recruit that comes close to replicating pass heavy offensive lines? Tight ends? And who is actually coaching them to play like up? We can barely coach our own OL and we expect a practice squad to get us ready to get through? It's been 10 years and 3 DCs. It's time to get the heads out of the sand. The offense, and having a HC who is his own OC hurts the defense. That would be fine if the offense was good enough to cover it, but as I showed. It's not. Sorry, but we're 10 years in. We've seen what we will have with Johnson's defenses. A new DC is just pushing food around the plate. And we could have done worse after Gailey. Didn't stop that decision. We also could have done worse after Hewitt. And we did do worse. Didn't stop that decision. If you aren't moving forward, you're moving backwards, and we've not been going forward under Johnson for a long time now. [/QUOTE]
