Perhaps, but can we name 1 single DL or LB that actually got better when they left Vitt/Johnson and went elsewhere? No, no one can.

I don't think the problem is Vitt/Johnson. I think its that we drafted crappy players on defense.

And Vitt doesn't coach LB's anymore, he's the assistant HC.

But I wouldn't mind changing Bill Johnson out. Obviously what we have isn't working.

Rob Ninkovich; With the team not once but twice and they failed to utilize his talent properly

Tom Johnson.

He's been really good for the Vikes.

Both of those players were the same player here. Ninkovich kept getting injured. The didn't get better, they stayed healthy
