Yes, I wonder about Haslett. Can anyone that knows about these things tell me -- was our defense SO BAD simply because of the wrong players for the 3-4 defense, or was Haslett also bad at calling our defense?

I understand we'd drop in rankings given the switch to 3-4 and the lack of a good NT, but really - the second worst defense in the league??

I personally blame it on the 3-4 defense. We just didn't have the personnel for it. Just don't understand why they couldn't wait a season to implement it. They could've ran a base 4-3 with occasional 3-4 looks. Sure they threw a couple of 4-3 formations, but they spent the whole offseason learning the 3-4.
