Put a good defense next to them - and we could be in the Superbowl.
agreed! We are capable of scoring 17 points against great teams but when you give up 30 against even poor teams we stink! We lose. We need a plan/a scheme and the one currently deployed by GIBBS SUCKS doesn't work in High school, didn't work in College and isn't working in the pro's. Is there a reason why Gibbs left Dallas and suddenly the D got better???

Geez anyone would be an improvement over Gibbs he doesn't get it. Its not D he is playing its something else that just doesn't work.

Could it be the below average players in the system?

When your system is called "BEND DON'T BREAK" Its you. Good coaches work with what they have and try and make something out of nothing... bend don't break???

What about when a coach doesn't have much to "work with"... Seems like "bend don't break" was more optimism than realism. I'd like to see what happens when the coaches have the talent in place (and don't tell me there's talent there now)
