Clearly slanted toward the amateurish writer's on biases. Catering to Al Davis? Pleading? What a hack. What an awful article. Clearly slanted toward the amateurish writer’s on biases.

Warren but there more 3 techniques and we got Kelly I'm all for a possible stone wall NT hopefully that we do that in FA or the draft or else our run the will suffer and a improved offense will help drastically When your the head coach you got to worry about the entire team but we have swamped so many coaches who were all offensive minded I want a defensive coach maybe Winston Moss the assistant Head Coach of the Packers Marshall is the first Defensive coordinator since Ryan held it from 2004-2009 so I’d like to see what Marshall can do but we haven’t brought in an anchor for our D line we get a lot of DE’s but barely any DT sure Desmond Bryant and G.

It's not like they were stone-walling teams with Ted. As for the 'right personnel', he pretty much had the same team they currently with the exception of the players being a tad older. Nnamdi A. was on the squad, so was T.Kelly, and the familiar faces at LB. So that's a wash in your argument too. As for using Burgess right, he gets no credit for that. Burgess was healthy, young, rejuvenated after being signed away with Philly and he wanted to show he was one of the better speed rushers on the edges in the league. All he did was put his head down and rush the passer every game, leading him to back-to-back pro bowls before fizzling out due to injuries and ineffectiveness. His schemes you can't change. And you can't defend. Many of his prevent zones and bad choices at the end of games were costly. The team wanted to blitz more, and he rarely instituted it. Granted, when you work with Al Davis, 'things happen' when you game-plan and then you get into games. But Marshall this year injected more life into this D at times, than what Ryan ever did with his attacking schemes, and using M.Mitchell late in the season in that capacity. YES, Ryan had faulty safety play. Yes, he had a sieve in the front-7, but he also had more than enough time to show his worth. And he went on to CLEV to bomb over there too. As for your Mt. Cody comment - yeah, they need an upgrade on the DL. But that is all assumptions on your part that that one piece, and Ryan working with Marshall could gel and be a perfect combo. Plus, why would Marshall bend over backward to pave the way for Ryan when he handled the D this season. Oh, and I'm not saying by any stretch that this D was good. As many know, I have bashed this front-seven vs. the run and think this secondary coverage wise can be overrated.
