Ken Flajole our new secondary coach

The little man in my head tells me to worry about bringing in more Rams coaches; because after all, they really weren't that good.

But the kid in me, feels like I'M STANDING ON A MOUNTAIN TOP IN HOLAND! (That means happy; in case you haven't seen a York Peppermint Patty commercial)

+1

I am hoping the reason they weren't very good is because they had a severe lack of talent and that we just had bad schemes that included our DBs being left on islands for way too long...

But we hired their HC to be our DC.
We hired their DC to be our DB coach.

Thats not apples to apples.

If I remember correctly, the Rams' secondary did actually pretty well last season considering they had a lot of injuries to the projected starters - it was the run defense that was much worse than the pass defense.

The Rams' D was #8 in receiving yards allowed with 222.6 yards/game - that is over 50 yards less than what the Saints' secondary had.

The Rams' D was #23 in interceptions with 12 for the season - only 3 better than the #28 Saints.

The Rams' D was #7 in total passing yards allowed with 3,301 yards, while the Saints' D was #30 with 4,157 yards - although teams threw more against the Saints' D (for obvious reasons) with an average of 39 throws/game as opposed to the 30 throws/game for the Rams.

So, going by stats alone it seems that Spags D schemes with Flajole's coaching was better than the level at which the Saints' secondary played - especially considering they had those injuries to deal with.
