Tomorrow is usually a day they start doing install. Better to do it today so marienelli can design his own gameplan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaidersAreOne Posted December 14, 2020 Author Share Posted December 14, 2020 I have no idea what to expect with Rod M. Can any fan of a team he's been DC shed some light on what he does? For being a D-line guru our line has taken a step back tbh. I am not expecting much but after 3 years of brutal D's we needed to make a change regardless. Our D has let the playoffs slip away and that's unacceptable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a Tony Dungy/Monte Kiffin disciple and runs that basic Tampa 2 scheme... He was pretty good in Dallas after he took over Monte Kiffins spot which was his last stop. I don't remember how "good" they were but he had Jaylon Smith and LVE humming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's 71 years old so won't be the long-term DC by any means. But would be cool to see the D resemble something competent and show our front office who should be back or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didnt run Tampa 2 here after Kiffen left. He was pretty vanilla. His strength was teaching the concepts so that you didnt need exotic blitzes. We were fundamentally sound and had people in the right spot. I thought he did pretty well considering we didnt have a ton of talent on D.

INbengalfan Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 As sad as this sounds, Mike brown should be calling him to be our interim replacing Lou Anarumo. The dude can't coach and has pi$$ed off every single veteran on the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might also help settle the locker room I doubt it. If anything it will unsettle things further to end the year, in my opinion. I don’t think Anarumo’s coaching has been that bad. Though he probably needs replacing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Single. One his schemes have been up and down, but he is too old school in his approach with players. It's his way or the highway. Frankly the highway sounds like a good place for him to go play.
