SOW Barry Cofield Interview Transcript

[The Goat]

Good read, though I'd like to hear more of his perspective on the difference we saw from 1st half of the season to the 2nd half. After Orakpo's injury the front 7, and d line especially, just didn't create any pressure, period. By the 2nd half we saw the scheme broaden out to more LB and corner blitzes to add pressure, and it mostly worked. I guess the question I'd like Barry to answer is whether the d line will ever be able to create pressure on its own? Is there a personnel package he believes will get the job done? Adding that dynamic would take the defense to the next level IMO.
