Mike McCarthy fired defensive coordinator Bob Sanders and all of his defensive assistants except LB coach/assistant head coach Winston Moss. Sanders' D coughed up late leads in many of the close games and was a key reason for the firing. Moss is a leading candidate to replace Sanders, but there are several experienced coaches available this offseason that might be a better option to obtain the highest quality coach. I hope whoever takes over the defense emphasizes playing to the players' strengths and is aggresive getting to the quaterback. Obviously we did not have enough quality on the line this year and no one besides Aaron Kampman got to the quartback. If we bring in more talent via free agency or the draft or both, and gain a starter next to Pickett at DT or a DE so we can move Cullen Jenkins inside the new coach will the right personelle to have a chance to succeed. Ted Thompson has to acquire talent on the D line no matter what!
QUICK HUDDLE- The new assistant coaches will be very important to the success of the defense, so watch what happens
- Greg Jennings say he's 99.9% positive he won't hold out for a new contract, hopefully Thomposon realizes how valuable he is and signs him quickly.
- ProFootballWeekly says Mark Tauscher likely will not return and his successor at RT would be last year's 4th round pick Breno Giacomini.
