McDermott would be awesome if he would install a 4-3 that works like Jim Johnson's does. Johnson has been one of my favorite coaches and just thinking we could have an aggressive defense like that gives me a woodie!!!!!

If we stay with the 4-3, this guy would be my choice also. Nothing left of Kiffins staff, who would be the only other 4-3 guy to produce proper clones.

If we go with the 3-4, you have to look at the Ravens, who just lost Ryan, and Lebeau's staff which is still in place.

I guess which ever system Fox feels more comfortable with.

I'm all for McDermott. Interesting thing is some in Philly feel they didn't blitz enough against the cards. The numbers certainly back that up.

Best as I can tell, the Eagles blitzed Cardinals quarterback Kurt Warner 13 out of 30 pass plays. It was a ton of blitzing. Thirty percent blitzes is a bunch. The Eagles were just north of 43 percent. It was a lot, and I might even have missed a couple for all I know -- and this doesn't even include when they blitzed on running plays. But it still wasn't enough.

The Eagles' dilemma going into the game was clear. Warner is great against the blitz so they needed to get four-man pass rush pressure. It was the game's most significant imperative. But they couldn't do it, not consistently enough, especially in the first half

Here are the numbers for Warner:

Blitzing: 8-for-13 for 108 yards.

Not blitzing: 13-for-15 for 171 yards and four touchdowns.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      As I've said numerous times the last few days, having Thielen on the field has literally 0% to do with my views on this (I've even said I think Renfrow is going to take a ton of snaps from Thielen anyways).  He has more value to this team without playing a single snap than a 2026 5th round draft pick does for the franchise.   His value is helping set up T-Mac, XL, Coker, and Horn for long term success by helping them learn how to be pros, how to go about their business, how to train, how to do all the little things that helped turn Thielen from a D2 undrafted player into a borderline Vikings legend.

      Official Panthers roster cuts thread

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.

      Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings.
