Even though it won't happen, at least we can dream a little, right?
Seems like Jim Schwartz is out the door in Bills, would you guys take him over DP as DC?
I think part of the problem is that Pees was given a terrible secondary. Everyone wants a Rex Ryan/Todd Bowles, who blitz with reckless abandon, play lots of man coverage, and run a sort of organized chaos. Pees system gives you underneath stuff all day with the idea that the opposing QB will not be able to hit all of those receivers every time to sustain a drive (obviously a good QB can do this, though).
Pees system can work, you just need a lot of talent on defense to run it, especially in the secondary, where you need CBs who can play the ball and break fast toward the ball when thrown. A lot of the guys we've had don't play the ball; they watch and react to the receiver. This is what Melvin did yesterday, and what Chykie Brown, Dominique Franks, Cary Williams, and nearly every other scrub we have does. Lets face it: few DCs would have succeeded with this secondary. Given this, I think you can expect Pees to be back for at least one more year.
