When was the last time Payton has bent over backwards for any DC under his tender to go this far as drafting this many players for the D (top picks) and getting in FA that could fit the bill? He's bending over backwards for Allen. Allens D's better produce good this season, if he don't he should endure the same fate as multiple DC's have faced. Without a D we're 7-9 to 9-7 if lucky, with a good D we're contenders. Now we get to sit back and watch?

In Ryan's first year he ran a simplistic version of his full defensive scheme. In his second year he fully implemented it. The players were always a step behind because they had to read before reacting. The exact same thing happened when he was in Dallas. His first season the defense was very solid in his simplified defense. The following year he ran with the full scheme and it was a disaster and he was fired.

You can definitely put the failures in 2014 and 20156 on the DC, Ryan. After Ryan was fired the defense under Dennis Allen showed improvement down the stretch because he trashed Ryan's scheme. In 2016 injuries decimated the secondary and the LB corps was terrible. I put that on Vitt more than Allen.

And, yes, I can't wait to sit back and watch.
