I checked it out. The Bears were 31st in yards per play allowed.
Yeah it wasn't pretty. I think that's what Slater was saying. Eagles and Jets were near the top.

He had a bunch of top 10ish units with the Colts, I'm not overly concerned with his track record as a HC.
I know he's a solid enough coach, I just personally have never been impressed with him for whatever reason. I assume he'll run more the Marinelli style also, which is my least favorite defense even if it can work.He had a bunch of top 10ish units with the Colts, I'm not overly concerned with his track record as a HC.
Yes. I didnt want him to leave when he did so Im not going to let the hire of Shot sour him on me.Assuming it actually happens I like Eberflus.
Ace, I hear your point, I was mainly trying to maybe clarify what someone else might have meant. I get that this is a hiring based on familiarity, continuity, and generally being a puppet.Fuck that.
Ravi, you're a smart guy who knows his Cowboys history so you know like I do that they are absolutely comparable in the sense that you have two guys who NOBODY was trying to make their head coach and are going to be the lowest paid HC in football.
Campo and Schottenheimer are getting the gig for the exact same reasons.
And for as much as we all make fun of Campo, he was the the DC for the 95 Cowboys was he not?
And the 95 Dallas Cowboys defense was the #1 defense in all of football -- a SB winning defense at that.
So if anything, you could say Campo was more qualified to get a gig before Schottenheimer, but that's grasping at straws.
They're both total shit candidates who have no business being given that responsibility.
Probably when Dowdle started his HoF path.Listened (because it was paywalled) to Nick Harris FWST article and he said Dak was "standing on the table" for BS. Also, they gave credit to BS for the changes they made several games into the season in 2023 when the offense took off.
Umm, that’s a very shallow analysis. Schottenheimer over-emphasized the run, if anything, until “let Russ cook” became the mantra in 2020.
I guess if you go by points against they were 13th. That's the stat that matters most. Not that 13th was impressive. But ultimately the game is about scoring points. Not gaining yards.Yeah it wasn't pretty. I think that's what Slater was saying. Eagles and Jets were near the top.
That's really a perfect comparison. Dude whose coaching career peaked a long time ago. But picking him because you know him and everyone in the locker room likes him as opposed to even looking at the best options.
