Because late season MLF mentioned that he needed to become more involved in the defensive side of things. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Campbell has lost at least a step. McDuffie is a late 6th round pick. I think they need more talent there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, when he realized his input didn't help and gave Barry back the reigns. Just as likely as the possibility you're suggesting. That's the point. Neither of us have any clue. It's totally unknowable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quay is not very good .. lack of instincts was the knock coming in and it still holds true. I like his athletic skills, but the brain ain't there. McDuffie a good football player, but physically limited. Add a guy like Cooper and this is a strong unit.

You're talking in circles with no real insight. Sometimes I can’t tell if you’re being blatantly obtuse or you’re just dumb. With the current roster, better defensive coordinators could take our defense from okay, occasionally surprising to elite, good enough to win a Super Bowl. Joe Barry might have gotten good performances out of this roster. A better defensive coordinator would have turned this roster into a top 5 defense. How are you incapable of understanding that concept? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most draft capital, third most money in the NFL and average results. You’re so busy defending Joe Barry you can’t take literally a second to come to the natural conclusion that our defensive coordinator could do a lot better.

You'd think think that having to get involved at all would be enough for LaFleur to want to hire a seriously proven commodity. LaFleur seems to really want this style of defense, but maybe he'll look around a bit and see that a lot of other DC's are doing better things. This style of defense has kind of fell out of favor around the league. Hopefully he's paying attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. He doesn't like firing people. He tried to find a spot in the organization for former ST coaching disaster Drayton. After his choice, Drayton wanted to go and find something else. It wouldn't surprise me one bit if he kept Barry or did something like that with him. Edited January 21 by NFLGURU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So long as the organization's resources aren't constrained that they cant attract (read: pay) a top notch replacement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
