Quote:I like Mike Smith, but he's not the type of coach we need. He runs a very conservative 4-3 defense... we need someone creative and aggressive. Whether that is some one like Jim Schwartz or the DC from Arizona. Jim Schwartz would kill with the talent we have on defense... I would just worry about the type of offensive staff he would put together.

 

Unless Jim Schwartz learns from his stay with the Lions,  I don't think he would be a good fit for Blake Bortles.  Schwartz's Offensive Coordinator for his 5 seasons in Detroit was Scott Linehan,  who frequently worked with the QBs.   Though from a strategy/ play calling standpoint I thought Linehan was creative and did a good overall job,  the attention to detail with Matthew Stafford's mechanics caused many problems.  Even beyond the necessity at times to throw in awkward positions.
