    Best #1 pick for 3-4 Defense

    His brother who has basically the same body type had ZERO problem as an edge rushing, 34 LB in his first year with San Diego playing for John Pagano... 10.5 sacks in 12 games, playing out of position...similar production moving to a 43 SDE he had 12 sacks in 16 games.

    Current Cards DC candidates per Gambo

    We should also look into Joe Woods, who got the ax with Vance Joseph in Denver. The defense has always done well, it was the offense and a lack of a real QB that killed them this year.

    Current Cards DC candidates per Gambo

    Capers is 68 and Wade Phillips 71.
  4. The Kraken

    Current Cards DC candidates per Gambo

    Mike Nolan has more experience then Pagano, but his overall performance and the fact he is usually run out of town in 2 years (SEVEN DC jobs) should tell you all you need to know...that is why he is an LB coach now and was in his last job.

    Current Cards DC candidates per Gambo

    Never a DC, was a ST coordinator.
  7. The Kraken

    Current Cards DC candidates per Gambo

    He had a terrible GM (Ryan Grigson) who made some horrible draft picks, which affected his teams. Trying to replace Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis with someone like Bjoern Werner depleted that roster quickly.

    Current Cards DC candidates per Gambo

    Chuck's younger brother John ran a very successful, very aggressive 34 scheme in San Diego as well and should be considered as well

    Headcoach Kliff Kingsbury and his assistant coaches

    And was promoted from position coach to HC too quickly and it ended in disaster.

    Official Kliff Kingsbury press conference 01/09/19

    Mike Nolan Hard Pass...dude is the anthesis of "aggressive", his teams (HC and as a DC) were bend don't break, keep them in front of you, perpetual "prevent" defenses...that is why he has made the circuit through the league.

    Greg Williams DC is available - GO GET HIM NOW

    Potential defensive coordinators - my suggestions

    I knew it was too good to be true!

    Potential defensive coordinators - my suggestions

    Excellent! We can swoop in and grab Bettcher back!

    This article makes me even more hyped (KK and Rosen)

    McCoy didn't do that in San Diego despite having a bona fide franchise QB, or during his second go around with the Broncos, so what CKK has done, does exactly that. The question is, will it work and for how long (or can he adjust to outpace DCs?)

    Potential defensive coordinators - my suggestions

    Chuck might have been a very vanilla HC, but his defense in Baltimore was lights out! So was his brother's in San Diego... They both coached attacking D's... He would be an excellent complement to young HC!

    Cards get compensation for Bucs signing BA

    The TE is an H back in the system he ran...I am sure he will adapt his offense to accommodate an inline blocker. I would imagine we will see a lot of 11 pers groups

    Jace Amaro would beg to differ

    Kingsbury Finalizing a Deal To Become TheArizona Cardinal's Head Coach

    You realize that true Air Raid OL play is set up to retreat and occupy for three big steps, giving the QB the time to sling the ball... that is why despite having OL that translate to the NFL, teams like WASH St and TT are able to put up so many points despite player size and talent difference...

    Potential defensive coordinators - my suggestions

    Ok, I will give you your point on the 7s...and while I am old school and in a "under front" (my preference) I want a larger SDE for power running, I agree with you...it can be done. I think Peters and the bunch mentioned are better 1 gap 5 techs...
  22. The Kraken

    Potential defensive coordinators - my suggestions

    Gandhi...you still have to be gap sound, if you are in a base four front, and you are playing "over" your SDE is in a 9 tech, has the D gap, your 3 tech has the strongside B gap, your SAM fills the strongside C gap while the MIKE has the Strongside A, your NT lines up in a 1 tech or 1 I has...
  23. The Kraken

    Potential defensive coordinators - my suggestions

    When your assignment is to be a one gap penetrator in the B gap you have to get low enough to fire into the back field...That is why great 3 techs are shorter than 5 techs, who used (not so much today) had two gap responsibility...Again, I am talking about Base defense...
  24. The Kraken

    Potential defensive coordinators - my suggestions

    Point blank: We do not have a 3 or a 7 and are in need of a 43 WILL LB for base downs (aka predominantly running/play action). RN is a solid starter when healthy, the problem is he is a 5 tech and not a prototypical 3 (Warren Sapp is a 3, compare the body styles)...
