The new NFL is built on fast offenses. Ryan's front 3 is built on space eaters instead of DTs that collapse the pocket. He doesn't use his edge rushers well. Quick DT and edge rush pressure is crucial in today's league. He uses tons of exotic blitzes which might not be realistic in a quick offense (and has it ever worked without Revis)? He's dime-heavy which as we saw through Sutton really struggled with the new emphasis on PI & def holding. And 3-4 defenses are adding a ton of speed to their ILBs to account for the spread which isn't a signature of his defense either. And arguably defenses these days need to attack vs. the complicated read and react Ryan's been criticized for these days. Can he adapt his scheme to the new NFL? Didn't seem that way in Buffalo. But yeah, he's a good enough coach and mind that if he can, I'm all for it. But those things worry the hell out of me. |

Rex Ryan and his outdated scheme is not built for the new NFL and has not shown any signs that he is.

Big ego guys don't usually change much.

We're literally in a moment in which we need to either pay a ton of money to keep guys we have, or free up enough money to go get guys we need. This is literally the best time to make a switch, if they want to make it. pros and cons either way. But you cut Houston and Berry June 1 and you can afford to get guys to fit your schematic changes, whatever they may be if you want to. If not, and you keep them and pay Ford, you're running out of money quick to upgrade. |

I don’t give a shit if it’s Rex Tillerson or Nolan Ryan. It won’t be Bob Sutton and that’s good enough for me

Gregg Williams would be nice. Maybe the players will stop playing so soft

The Defense Sutton originally installed was not all that different. We blitzed heavily the first few years. The new NFL is built around pushing the pocket into the QB as fast as possible. Speed off the edges. Speed at LB to cover the distance of a spread offense. An attack mentality vs. read and react. Arguably, the Chiefs are further along than Ryan's Defense. They got rid of a few of those things. If Ryan comes back, he has to do something really different than what's he done in the past. He can't rely on 2-gap. Can't do that read and react shit. Has to cut down Dime. Has to prioritize speed over size.
