CAPJ Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Figured it would be easier to post in a new thread for any additional coaching rumours/signings. HC - Mike McCarthy DC - Mike Nolan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rtnldave Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Dude, all I want from a DC is a defense with frickin TEETH! Show me a defense that attacks, tackles, gets the qb on the ground, gets turnovers!!!! I'm so sick of rookies, 2nd year and, has-beens, etc getting 3rd and 19 or 2nd and 22 or whatever against our Swiss cheese defenses! Give me a defense that HITS HARD!!!

I think a lot of teams are looking for that. Defense in general is neutered in the NFL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inherent flaw with that is his defense tends to give up more big plays. I cant find if he 1 gaps or 2 gaps with his DL, but I am assuming 2 gaps. He likes to have a big fat NT.

How do our current corners fit into his scheme? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do our current corners fit into his scheme? Multiple defense. He switches a lot from man/zone. Puts a huge emphasis on versatility. Does like fast LBs, so we should be fine there. At least, this is the information I can find on him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WizardHawk Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Frank Cignetti, who was a QB coach under MM in GB and also was a regular in The McCarthy Project was hired for the OC spot at Boston College That probably helps keep Moore and Kitna in house. The other mentioned as part of his regular meetings are Jim Haslett and Scott McCurley. Haslett has already been mentioned as a possible LB coach. McCurley was a defensive asst in GB. Also if Colombo isn't retained, I'd keep an eye out for Joe Philbin. He's been a long time asst for MM and zone blocking is his forte.

First you want JG to get an extension now you want one of the few bright spots of our past season to run off and leave us. You are such a masochist.

textaz03 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 I’d wouldn’t mind seeing Moore working with a decent playbook instead of Garrett’s. But I understand if he wants to go to a place where he is more comfortable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
