I'm taking a wait and see... I thought our defense would be one of the best in the league last preseason when we added Abrayo and Rogers...

Spagnoulo announcing we will be a press team automatically makes the defense better. No more playing ten yards off of receivers afraid of giving up the big play...

Unless of course you have bad CBs who can't cover, nobody to rush the passer so the opposing WRs are running free all over the field, and end up having the worst pass defense in the league. I like Greer but...

I also think Loomis is more deserving of the praise for signing Lofton, Hawthorne, Bunkley, etc. than Spags is.

we don't have bad cbs, Robinson and Greer held their own with the piss poor D-Line we had last year. Any improvement in the line will help the cbs. And I'm thinking that Spags had some say in bringing in the LBs, Loomis gets the credit for making the contracts work though

I remember the feeling the same way. I thought GW was all over it too. Not the first dumbassed thing I've ever done. I am going remain cautiously optimistic however now that Spags is here.

I can second that, but it seems that no matter how much I try to take the "wait and see" attitude, I just catch myself getting very excited about this defense - mostly because of Spags and what he brings to the table.

It's hard not to get excited, just look what Steve has done so far. Lofton, Chamberlain, Hawthorne, Bunkley and potentially Hicks...
