I've never been impressed with DA as Def Coordinator. Ever.

As for Marcus, what is this year 3 in this system? The most fundamental things concern me with him.... tackling.

Love his work ethic but you can't continue to dip and tuck your head in the open field. Those bad habits should have been gone by now.

He's come up short in key moments 2 of the last 3 seasons & consistently late over the top. While his game recognition improved, his inability to diagnose quickly & capitalize has become a problem.

I guess what I'm saying is that I don't trust him in key, crucial moments in games.
