So, how worried should we be about Sean Mcdermott?

[L-TownCat]

lol...D showed great improvement last year. Pass rush was fantastic. LB play was great.

Bc I point out people shouldn't proclaim us a top 8 D last year.....and weren't, even if you use only yardage? That is some defensive slam?

 

Nah, not at all.  This one wasnt even that bad. 

 

I don't think anyone here would equate last years defense to Baltimore or Pittsburgh or even Cinci.  However, there is this little thing called confidence.  We have a little of it and its starting to puuurrrrrmiate the fanbase.  It should be nurtured and encouraged. 

 

Most of us feel that last year, while not the greatest season, was at least a building block that had numerous positives to build off of.  So if we use our 1(one, only, solitary) top 10 reference, let it be.  No need to douse cold water on an all ready waterlogged alley cat.

I think that this defense is probably more Rivera/personnel than it is McDermott.

McDermott will be a head coach at some point in the next few years

I think our defense is going to be pretty good this year, but our defense was not that good last year.

I know I know. Total yards and points per game were ranked pretty high last year. I still don't think they played that well or as well as they are going to this year if everyone stays healthy.

Also Rivera knows his poo on defense so if McDermott leaves I trust him to make a good pick up

[Peppers90 NC]

I hope our defense is good enough this year for him to be considered for head coaching spots, but he is a couple years away if it ever happens
