[QUOTE="Augusta_Jacket, post: 327255, member: 1191"] I am not a defensive guru, but I think the answer is a bit more nuanced than just a "talent" issue. In 2009, we fired Wommack and hired Groh, thus changing defensive schemes. Thus, while we had talent on the team, it wasn't necessarily talent recruited for that specific scheme. Three years later we change DCs, and scheme, again. Once again, the first few seasons our defenses were playing 4-2-5 & 4-3 with guys recruited for the 3-4. I would have thought last year would have been more improved based on finally having a multitude of players recruited for the current scheme, but alas, last year started poorly on D, and while it got better, it wasn't nearly as good as it should have been. I think this year is probably a make or break year for CTR. Unless we see improvement, I think it's hard for CPJ to justify keeping him. Just to note, the scheme change mostly affects our front 7, not our secondary. It's the complete lack of pass rush that is most worrisome to me. We lose a few battles in the secondary, but generally, it's been the strength of our D. It would be nice to get them some help this season. [/QUOTE]
