Morris gets credit for having his group playing tough this season. Both Hall and Wilson are tackling and hitting better overall this season. But I think the scheme is been wrong early and often. At what point do you begin to question Morris too (Haslett's lousiness is already established)?

Honestly, if its a play calling only issue, I dont see how that can be placed on anyone except the play caller. I dont see how we can rail against Raheem if a cover 0 all out blitz is called against a max protect deep ball. Thats a DC getting beat by an OC.

Agree. So how do you evaluate Morris? I mean part of me says anythig will be better than JHaz, but you still want to know what your getting...

Thats actually a pretty good question. I hate to say it, but for fans, we may have to go back to his bucs days. He did take a pretty bad team and get them to a winning record. People blame him for his last year there but the bucs had something like a 60 mil payroll. They got rid of most of the good players to save money in the uncapped year to go after big names this year. Lets face it, Joe Gibbs wasnt going to win last year in Tampa as the HC.

I also find it difficult to judge based on the talent level in our secondary. Its easy to look out coached when other teams just have that much more talent. Across the board, I dont believe that can be said for a fair amount of the team. But comparing other teams WR's to our secondary, I believe the talent level is not very close. Throw in that we havent generated a consistent pass rush. That makes it near impossible to actually grade the DB's coach unless you are at every practice and on the sidelines during games.
