Could be wrong but wasn't that because of Manusky?

Hiring another guy who's never done the job before.... Get ready for more terrible defense.

You mean from Seattle?

Manusky ran a 3-4... I don't remember the last time we ran a 4-3... 2005

Yup that quality control experience will come in handy coordinating an NFL defense.

They sucked ass against the run with a 3-4 anyway. NFL Historic worst run defense.
Bow is not a SLB in this defense. Matt Miller is tripping. Nobody wants to see Bowman being used to set the edge in base lol.
I hope we somehow get a real NT and back-up/back-ups and stay with the 3-4. I really do

Did anyone ask Shanny what D they were going to run at the presser?

Love the optimism as always.

Leaving thread in 3, 2, 1

FTFY
Also, does this mean there's a higher chance we draft Jonathan Allen? If so, going to have to lock up a QB before the draft... unless we want to trade back up into the first round somehow.

No, I believe it does not. Allen would just exacerbate our problem of finding spots for Armstead and Buckner.


Thomas, however, comes into play now.

Seems a bit off to me. Buckner as a nose tackle taking on double-teams is a waste imo, he should be in a position to be more disruptive in the backfield. I see him as 3-tech or strong side end.

Also don't like Bowman at SAM. He's much better suited for the MIKE or WILL. I want Bowman to be a chase and pursuit tackling machine.
Am I the only one who is happy with this? Good hire
