I am not sure you can learn the intangibles it takes. I would have thought he would have learned enough from Dungy not to need the occasional help.

In all fairness his defenses while not great against the run still ranked top 10 in Indy. I am sure Manning had something to do with it. But still he has been pretty good especialy with this offense or lack of it. How much of the help was needed versus Fox butting in and asserting himself.

Did someone really just say Meeks could be our Monte Kiffin ?

BFABABABBBAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA :lol:

Yeah I said it. Meeks employs the same system and has had good success here. I don't know if there are many guys who can coach the Tampa 2 as well as Kiffin but Meeks is our version. Maybe not as good but I wonder how good we would be if we actually had an offense which could score points and control the clock. Plus we have not have the DEs to run a Tampa 2 since Peppers left. And we have never had the safeties to run it effectively.

Tony Dungy has never had a below op 10 defensive team regardless of the coordinator. The problem is Meeks has never been the DC under an offensive minded HC.

Sorry but I don't think Meeks could do much more than he has done.

He is a decent coordinator, but not great.

Probably shouldn't be mentioned in the same breath as Kiffen.

You really think he could more with this collection of young inexpereinced players??

The Tampa 2 requires great experienced safties, a middle linebacker who can cover the pass and DEs or a combination of DTs and DEs who can pressure the quarterback.

We have young inexperienced safeties, a MLB who is taken out in passing situations and we get no pressure at all from the defensive line which has been gutted.

Exactly what more could he do??

    • Hope Koch recovers (he’s stated numerous times he doesn’t like to be called “koochie”) soon. But he does not instill confidence in the crease. I don’t have any confidence in any of our goalies, healthy or not. Andersen when available gives us the best chance to win but he’s never available.    Team has to explore trade options soon. 
    • Respectfully, I completely disagree. Last year we were:  32nd in Sacks. 32nd in Turnovers.  32nd in Rushing TDs allowed  29th in Scoring.  We were absolutely atrocious on defense last year and that was with a full stable of weapons in Derek Brown, Frankie Luvu and Brian Burns that played all 17 games.  Using yards per game as a metric to guage our success lacks the context that because our offense was so inept teams were not driving the length of the field, they were starting at their 40-50 yard line.  This year, our Defense ranks:  31st in Sacks. Tied for 19th in Turnovers  31st in Rushing TDs allowed 32nd in Scoring  His defense fails to get pressure, fails to turn the ball over and fails to stop the run. Three things you absolutely have to do to be successful in the NFL.  Denver meanwhile has not missed a beat without him.  If another team wants to hire him as a HC and the Panthers get two 3rds for it I'll wish him the best and pack his bags myself.
