I agree. Its why many of us thought there wouldn't be a huge learning curve for this defense. We were already somewhat successful using it with GW, so with a few upgrades it was a no brainer that we'd improve dramatically.

Maybe the whole 3-4 base versus the 4-3 base made people doubtful?

agreed but if you paid (media) any attention to the saints you are just down right lying from between your teeth. some of us new this at the start and that one reason i have judged Roy Boy so hard. he has done well in some phases and in others he has not done so well, i hate when credit is given out when it is not do, thats all

I do think Ryan deserves some credit, but certainly not all of it. He was just a really good fit for what we wanted to do and we already had several players that fit the attacking man-press schemes he uses.

This type of defense is a perfect compliment to the offense we run.

I'll say this about him, he's done what was expected of him, and maybe just a tad more.

Several of us said this defense should finish in the mid teens, and maybe top 10. Right now we're several spots higher than expected. I'll give Rob credit for at least that much.
