We've tried underqualified at every rung on the organizational ladder over the last 20 years. Overqualified doesn't sound so bad at this point.

Good point. Why have a DB coach at all? I nominate DHall for DB Player/Coach...

"Ok DBs gather round!! Here's today's agenda:

First I'm gonna teach you the 15-yd cushion off the LOS. I especially like to use this tactic when the opponent is faced with 3rd and 5.

Next I'll show you how to lay the wood on a guy when he's already 5 yds out of bounds. You will likely get a 15-yd penalty but your teammates will be pumped.

Finally I will teach you how to trash talk a receiver after he spins you around 3 times and beats you for a 30-yd reception. It takes a special skill to do that and I will teach you that skill."

Not sure what one has to do with the other.

False.

Could the Vikes offer the DC position to Morris?

AdamSchefter Adam Schefter
Jaguars defensive coordinator Mel Tucker turned down an offer from the Minnesota Vikings to remain in Jacksonville as the DC.

True, but only later in the year......early on they were vulnerable - despite the strong, defensive start.

Once they got it together, the secondary was very good. There is more to coaching than technique, however.....this team kind of quit when they were eliminated from playoff contention.
