Who Can You Compare Haslett Defensive Scheme To?

I'm tired of seeing 9-7, and hoping to make it into the play offs through a back door wild card position.

But, we bring in a DC who actually has not produced as a DC, and actually failed at being a HC. I mean he's only as good as the last position he's coached well at, which is what? LB's?

I just hope that he's not a DC who has an attitude and says it's either my way or the highway. I hope he's open to ideas. I also hope he for no other reason has a break out year as DC and has our defense really doing well.

Well didn't Gregg Williams fail as a HC as well? Also, he had a horrible stint in Jax after leaving the Redskins and is now doing a pretty decent job in N.O.Haslett had some good years in Pittsburgh and New Orleans. I think we all need to calm down and see what happens.

Very good point.

A factor in the failure of Rams defenses under Haslett was that he didn't have a lot of talent to work with. This does not exonerate him, it just means that Ruhskins is correct in his wait-and-see admonition.

Patience? That's MADNESS!

Seriously, I love coaches with something to prove which Shanny and Haslett both have.
