If Wilks Goes Elsewhere, Would You Want Del Rio?

[Proudiddy]

He was my favorite DC until McD and Wilks...  

Just wondering aloud, as I expect Wilks to get a HC job this offseason and Del Rio was well-liked here and is now unemployed.

[OriginalPantherDan]

Yes. Next question. 

[Snake]

Sure. 

[Fox007]

Sure

[Wolfcop]

Absolutely

[NeedSumD]

No defense did a good job today,  Not sure Wilks is going anywhere but if he does go Jack would be a good replacement 

[KillerKat]

Did he coach 4-3 when we switched?

[The NFL Shield At Midfield]

yeah he's a hell of a defensive mind

[Jangler]

yup.

[Mr. Scot]

Del Rio is a good option.

So is Chuck Pagano. Rivera used to work with his brother John in San Diego.

Vance Joseph would be a possibility as well.

Yup. We were 4-3 under Fox/Del Rio and he made Reggie Howard and Terry Cousins appear to be actual starting -caliber NFL CBs.  And this LB corps and interior line is a lot better than what he had.

New blood would be great, tired of hiring within our current staff...

[Mr. Scot]

The only time we ran a 3-4 base was under Dom Capers. We've never run it here since.

There was talk that Rivera might do that because that's what he was coaching in San Diego when we hired him, but it didn't pan out.
