It's Talent, Not Coaching.

What on earth are you watching that leads you to believe these guys can play effectively now after what we've seen all year? What were you doing this Sunday at 1pm? Did you actually watch the game?



And which players from last year would be giving us All-Pro performances if only they had stayed in a 4-3? Golston and Haynesworth? Andre Carter, Rocky McIntosh, -- oh yeah, we'd be a "top ten defense" at this very moment if Shanny hadn't come along and screwed everything up, right?

It's also a fact that they are still using the 4-3. Which is why it's a fact that if Haslett had never been hired, and if the same scheme had been carried over from last year, we'd be in exactly the same horrific situation.

Yeah, because Football Outsider's stats are just as bad as regular ones.

They're still using a 4-3? They may be using fronts with 4 men with the nickel package, but they never ever have use 4 down linemen. And you think someone else is going to be exactly the same as Blache scheme-wise?

It's common knowledge that the 3-4 needs a NT to work. The NT has a very specific role that 4-3 DTs do not perform. Our NTs sucking makes EVERYONE ELSE look worse because the 3-4 is that dependent on having NT. You seem to suffer from perceiving everyone is sucking worse than they actually are precisely because of this.
