we need an awesome DC and ST coordinator if we want a chance to compete this year. ST was a disaster this year and the defense was mentally weak, collapsed in the biggest moments, unfortunately.
also, we need a huge upgrade at center. Our center was embarrassing all year - which has a huge impact on our entire o line.
so much to improve upon. I hope we make some awesome moves this off season cause this year made me sick.
Schneider had to go but it's not like he wasn't a well respected ST guy. Dudes been coaching special teams since 1997 and was Seattle'a ST guy for a decade.
Sorensen seems like a smart football guy, he clearly wasn't ready to be a DC. I hope they bring in a guy that's been a successful DC at one point.
we've needed an upgrade at center for a while, Brendel stunk last yr all the same. I hope they bring in a vet there.
they got earlier picks, some decent cash and more time to get healthy. Toss in the easiest schedule in football next yr.
Sorensen strikes me as one of those guys who's smart and hard working but lacks management qualities. They're good at what they do but leading others isn't where they are at their best.
Saleh is interesting. Would he really want to go from one crap organization with a crap GM to another? Would you stake your future on Baalke? Your future was tied to a crap QB NY and in Jacksonville you'll have an overrated, overpaid QB who's success will
determine your future. Baalke and Lawrence? No thanks.
The SF job is actually interesting because if things go south next year Kyle might be done. If that happens people are going to want "a culture guy". That's Saleh. Also, you know the organization and it's not Jax
