Posted this in another thread and think it applies here:

Why can't Payton just leave well enough alone when it comes to defense? One minute he's announcing we're switching to a 3-4 and hires an appropriate coordinator to run it. After one up and one down season he brings in Dennis Allen and we switch back to a 4-3 essentially making Rob Ryan a lame duck defensive coordinator.

Wanna know why we might suck on defense again this year? How about having a coordinator on his way out, a defensive assistant who is already affecting the scheme, and a head coach who is offensive-minded overriding both of them to call defensive plays. It's a mess folks.

I mean I'd give credence to this, but RR went from fielding the fourth ranked D to the 31rst....I think he ha salways been about middle of the road with his defense or back. I am happy to be corrected about that.

I was against the RR hiring, I thought he blew as a Dcoord, didn't understand the hiring, and I wanted Romeo... I ate Crow in 13, and I hope I am full of crow this season, but he's not off to a great start.

I am happy when we do well and if that means I am all kinds of wrong about RR, all the better. Hope I am.

Your team stinks
