Rob Ryan sings Payton's praises

It's the personnel, he's a 3-4 guy trying to make it with broken 4-3 parts...

And when we should be taken quality players in the third round at linebacker, we're trading up for neat toys when we have enough talented players on offense at the skill positions and not enough touches to geaux around...

Shouldn't have hired him if we we're not going to give 'em the tools needed...

Needed 3-4 linebackers and Loomis had salary-cap grid-lock with guaranteed starting slots because of same...

I'd buy that; except for the fact that he made it work last year...

You had a few more guys to rotate (healthy) last season...

They were at there best in those weeks when a healthy Jenkins started at NT - though Bunkley spelling him worked very well...

Vaccaro paired with Jenkins seemed to really work well...

And don't discount Glenn Foster's absence - that's been huge...

We even had a healthy Jabari Greer for most of the season...

Paying Junior all that money has just seen him ride it out - Curse of the Big Mo...

I will say that my concerns are that Rob is trying to make his system as complicated as Payton's offense, and defenders who've got to read, assess, adjust just gave opposing offenses the split second they need to get by them...

	It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...
