So, how worried should we be about Sean Mcdermott?

Top 8 defense last year, so far, outstanding performance by the D in pre season all through the depth chart. With Hardy in a contract year, additions of Short and Star and 1 year of Kuechly experience. Its a good chance we have a top 5 D this year.

Anyone else worried he will start getting looks as a HC from teams and we lose him?

I'm worried he will likely be coaching around a big void in talent.... again. I feel no better about the secondary yet.

I don't worry about his future

I wouldn't be surprised, but there's no sense worrying over things you can't control. Either he stays or he leaves. I hope it's the former, but if not, I have faith that DG, RR, and Big Cat will find a suitable replacement. Don't forget that RR's specialty is defense too. In the meantime, I choose to sit back and watch the thing of beauty I suspect our defense is going to be this year, and enjoy it as long as I can.

Steve Wilks was actually Rivera's first choice as a DC but San Diego didn't let him interview.

 

If McDermott were to get a new job, I figure the DC spot goes to Wilks.

 

That would be up to Gettleman, ultimately. My guess, if they were to hire in house, would be Eric Washington. More of a proven commodity in the locker-room here.

Also, lets not exaggerate. Last year.

# 10 in yards per game

#18 in points against

#16 in ypc against

#32 completion % against

People are taking that total yards number and running a little too much with it. We weren't a top 8 D....in any way. Overall, we weren't really a top 10 D.

We pressured the QB like an elite D last year.....we weren't an elite D yet though

      You don’t even need 1b because Tepper is the only one foolish enough to wheel that deal.    Player wise? Jake’s elbow. JR and Pep getting sideways, no Carruth, Cam’s shoulder, Luke’s concussions, it would be a long list of stuff. You can take it down to certain plays in games. Fox chasing 2 point conversions in the SB would be on my list. RMJr slipping at the end of that same game was not helpful.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Ultimately this just amounts to heavy revisionist history. I mean you aren't talking to someone that just popped out the womb a week ago. I was here all throughout the predraft process. The overwhelming majority of the fanbase felt like this was a fine situation and the best situation for a rookie QB to go to compared to Houston for example. The hype for Young and our "rockstar" staff was off the charts. No one could dare speak cautious skepticism of his abilities or they would be neg repped into oblivion. Only after he had one of statistical worst rookie seasons of the last 25 years did we get this narrative now that his rookie season actually shouldn't count. Complete malarkey if you ask me.

      On the field? Since I guess it qualifies as multiple instances it might not count, but have the damn refs throw some flags on illegal hits to Cam's head in SB50. If that doesn't count, 1A. Cotchery caught it 1B. Kasey keeps that kickoff inbounds. Off the field? 1A. Team is sold to anyone but Tepper 1B. We have the patience not to mortgage the franchise on that Bryce trade. Stroudwpuldve been the better pick but he's not worth it either.
