The defense was turning the corner last year, but I don't think Coughlin and as a result Campbell comes here last off season if Gus is still the head coach today. I'm not sure if we would have still landed Bouye or Church, but this defense went from moving into the "good" category at the end of last year to the "great" category with the contributions by those three free agents. If Gus is here then Campbell and maybe Bouye and Church aren't on this roster. If that were the case, I think we'd probably be around 6-9 heading into this week 17 game and fans would be beside themselves with how upset at Bradley and the organization they'd have to be at this point with another losing season assured.
