Yea because having somebody in the front office who goes out of his way to over step his Coaches worked really well in the past huh? It's almost like we just seen what happened, when that happens... weird.

The word you're looking for is opinion, not facts.

It is my opinion that Caldwell endorses Wash and his defense, but it is logically based on the fact that it is the only defense Caldwell has worked with while he has been here.  If he didn't like the scheme, I am sure he would have told Khan it needed to be changed when he hired Morrone.  Unlike your opinions, mine are supported by logical premises. For facts, please see my signature.

Well, it's pretty clear now that the plan was to get rid of every single last malcontent and Coughlin miscue, and it actually has done a world of good for the offense and a fair amount of good for the defense. This team does look like it has a real bought in chemistry now.

They just forgot one thing.

Todd Wash's scheme can't work without a disproportionate amount of talent spread throughout and a front four that gets home without help.

We don't have the DE rotation the scheme needs, the interior push required to help those ends, that necessary CB that takes away half the field, or a free safety that would even be sniffed on the waiver wire - much less one worthy of the scheme's requirement.

OK. Please describe the defensive scheme that works for the current talent level of this team.
