Redskins promote Greg Manusky to defensive coordinator

Write up from the WashingtonPost about Manusky . . .

Fans might not feel enthusiastic about promoting from within after the defense struggled over the past two seasons under Barry. But Manusky has a more aggressive mind-set and should be willing to blitz more than Barry did. Simply blitzing more won’t solve all of Washington’s problems; clearly the team needs an influx of talent on defense, but that aggressive intent should help get more pressure on opposing quarterbacks who, at times last year, had all day in the pocket to find an open receiver.

I do like the fact that he is more aggressive both with blitzes and with coverages . . . we have had aggressive coverages in a long time . . . hopefully that means no more 10 year cushions on 3rd and short!!
