Looking for fresh perspective on Manuel

[INbengalfan 696]

If you didn't know, the Bengals have widened their search for defensive Coordinator.  One of the new names being tossed around is former Bengal's player and Falcon's DC Marquand Manuel.

 

I know injuries took a huge toll on your defense last year.  In fact, by our week 4 game, both teams were missing key contributors when our offense faced your defense.

My question is this:  How do you think he did in his first year as DC when he had a much healthier roster to employ?  I'm just trying to get a feel of how capable he is as a DC.

 

Thanks in advance.

Manuel isn't a bad coordinator. He just wasn't the right guy for this defense.

Thanks.  You are still playing 4-3 under, correct?

YEah, that Seattle-style defense. Y'all need faster linebackers to run it.

We need better LBs period.  Thanks.  I'm hoping for Devin White and Germaine Pratt in this draft
