Hoke, Smith, and the rest of the Defensive Staff suck donkey turds, but so does their talent. We need to do a clean sweep through our defensive coaching ranks and get rid of everyone on the defensive coaching staff and i mean EVERYONE. And while we are at it we need to kick Weaver, Greenwood, CCBrown, Harrison, and Travis Johnson to the freaking curb. We need new blood and those guys have all pretty much been failures beside CCBRown but the next time he covers someone will be the first time.
We need to bring in a DC who will have 100% control of the defensive scheme and of the defensive staff that he hires. It's the only way we will get a decent DC and its the only way said DC would have any chance at succeeding and sticking around. We should have hired either of Buddy Ryan's sons last year but we were more than happy to sit through another abortion of a season with Smith at the DC helm. Basically we need the DC to be the head coach of the defense so Gary can concentrate on keeping the offense progressing and finding a QB that can A.) stay healthy and B.) not turn the ball over constantly.
I am pretty much resigned to Kubiak being back in 0-9 due to his 3 game swath of destruction against the mightly Lions, Dolphins, and Bengals....y'know that is the stuff of legend around here, so I will just have to deal with another season with a bad head coach. don't get me wrong, Gary is a good coordinator but he is a horrible and pathetic Head Coach.
2009 here we come!!
