Re: Black Monday
I don't like laying all this at Rob Ryan's feet - to do so is a mistake...
Problem is still in-house with the organization... We stated we were changing personnel, base front and after drafting: NT John Jenkins (Two picks to get him) OLB Ronald Powell (Drafted, since released) OLB Parys Halralson (Signed, Tried to convert him to DE, should have saved the trouble and just cut him) OLB Stephone Anthony (Drafted, Prototype 3-4 ILB, Outstanding Player, Got him running sideline-to-sideline as a 4-3 MLB) OLB Hau'oli Kikaha (Drafted, Outstanding Player, Looked Even Better in 3-4 front in preseason) LB Dannel Ellerbe (Signed, Best years were in a 3-4 front) So WTF did we switch back to a 4-3 this season?!? Rob Ryan was brought in to install a 3-4 and yet we have a NT lose 50+ pounds (Jenkins) to play a 3-tech?!? Why did we sign Williams, who, at his age should be standing off the edge as a 3-4 DE/DT and we're counting on him as a pass rusher?!? Defensive Decisions by committee are why we are where we are on defense and this team is sucking big time... Only reason why I want to see Ryan go is so we can see the problem will still be there and they'll be no hiding it... Entire Defensive Staff must go, though I'd give the secondary another shot because you can't expect them to cover with no, none, pass rush... Unless, of course, they recommended signing Browner, then they'd have to go with the other kids... |
It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

If anyone thinks this is all Rob Ryan for this historically terrible defense, I think it's the "can't see the forest for the trees" syndrome. Sometimes we get so focused on Ryan that we forget everything that led up to this point. |
