New Article: Meeks will bring change for the better

Fox had a reason to override Trgovac, he didn't with Del Rio because he was good at his job.

I strongly disagree about Tim Lewis...I saw absolutely no improvement whatsoever after he took over. In fact, if anything the secondary started making more mental mistakes and giving up more big plays after he came here.

I wish we'd have implemented that pressure orientated, mainly man-coverage-centric coverage in the first half of the cardinal's game.

One thing I still don't understand, please tell me if you know.

Why did Meeks make a lateral move FROM a championship calibur team? It seems odd to me that if he was so good that he would move to a middling to above average team. Do you think he came because there are head coaching implications in the future?

Just saw that Kelvin Hayden is a FA this year. If we don't wrap up a lot of money in Pep I wouldn't be surprised to see us maybe make a run at Hayden since he played for Meeks in Indy. Could be the best cover 2 corner in the game...

new coach for the colts was going to be doing a house cleaning to get his own staff in. don't blame him but from what i understand it was not what the colts org. was expecting. they thougght the staff wold remain the same.

anyway, meeks knew that it was likely that his future wasn't going to be there with the new HC so he left on his own.

He has been considered for several HC positions in the past, most notably the redskins and jets. Getting offers down the road isn't out of the question. The fad is, though, going after the young bloods hoping to find a mike tomlin. someone of meeks age will probably have less of a chance to get an HC position anytime soon. Helping the Panthers turn their defense around would be a great step in the right direction. Making that happen should be easy considering the players he has to work with.

panthers aren't giving anyone contracts past 2010 anyway so if it's a short term deal that he got it won't be unlike anyone else.

I have no prob with zone as long as we are play physical and stopping the other team. I mean Pitt and NE use lots of zone coverage and it works well so there is no reason it want work for us. I just dont like the soft ass coverage I have been seeing for two years now. The bend but dont break crap is what I hate the most.
