i dont know are number but i am sure it is way more than that.with that said more money invested for a meeks DEF should mean a huge inprovment for next year...

i whould like to what meeks does with a team that emphasis DEF unlike the colts..i think this could pay off big for us.only thing is i whould like to see more blitzing like philly.but dont count on it..

58% on off for colts

39% on DEF

the rest for special teams...

lol where's that guy that was trying to tell me that most of the colts pay was spent on the defensive side of the ball? haha.

i never said most of their money was spent on the defensive side of the ball but you already knew that :)

are you still butt hurt from me dragging you all around that thread?

oh also this is only projected for 2009 and will certainly change as contracts are restructured, players are cut, retire, or are traded, and their first round pick is spent on defense, as polian as hinted.

harrison for example is probably going to be cut/traded

Furthermore, there's the big picture, the overall team structure and salary cap situation. Offense accounts for about $71.1 million, almost 58 percent, of the Colts' $123 million salary cap allowance for 2009. The defense accounts for about $47.8 million (39 percent), with the rest devoted to special teams.

oh also it's ludicrous to think that just because the Panthers spend more on their defensive players that meeks will perform better.

Uh, you never dragged me around the thread. You replied to me 1 time and it didn't even address what I was talking about. You replied to someone that said most of their money was spent on the offense by bringing up the contracts of Mathis and Freeney. Then I said the contracts of Manning, Harrison, Wayne, Addai, Clark, and Saturday combined was not more than Mathis and Freeney combined. You retorted by talking about this year's contracts when we were talking about 2008.

      Evero HC requests!

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      Are you now equating best/worst rush defense with best/worst defense? Those are separate things entirely. For rush defense, depending on how you quantify it, he has been largely in the bottom third of the league his entire career as a defensive coordinator.  As you can see, aside from his one year in Denver, he has never been above 20th in yardage. Now, there is context to consider which is most coordinators choose to run on him(24th-32nd ranked in his three year in Carolina). So, if you just simply look at Y/A, it has been a relatively mixed bag. Twice a top 15 defense but twice a bottom 15 defense.  The thing the should make all this good/bad run defense a lot clearer is the right most columns. Evero's defense has always prioritized pass defense and confusing QB's. That's the core of his defensive philosophy, as has been reported relatively widely. As much as there are ample personnel issues on that side of the ball(many of which he contributes to with his below average talent evaluations) his defenses may never be truly elite in rush and pass defense unless they are stocked with defensive talent. Like....his Denver defense that he inherited was. To that point, if you look at all those rankings from the three years Fangio(of whom Evero is a noted disciple) it shows a progression of getting steadily better into the far more elite defense it is now under Vance Joseph. As far as his HC interest, recall that he was a hot commodity after Denver and that cooled significantly after his first two years here. I suppose if you count getting interviews for HC positions as a benchmark for being a good coach(most would not) then he is middle of the packish.
