Re: Mike MacDonald - New DC
There is a long way between not seeing the dominating defenses of the past and completely ignoring defense because it doesn't matter anymore. Cincinnati is 17th in points allowed. KC is 8th in points allowed. LA is 15th in points allowed. SF is 9th. None are dominant but none are bad either. Defense still matters even if the rules have been changed against it.

Re: Mike MacDonald - New DC
Late to the party:
Here's what I like:
(1) Continuity - don't need to start over and have a defensive rebuild
(2) Young energy, young mind could lead to innovation/evolution of the scheme and relate to the players
(3) Has coached Linebackers and Secondary in this scheme with some of these players
(4) Scheme has a goal/directive/mandate to evolve from last year or else Wink would still be here
Concerns: not saying this will happen but it could and hopefully doesn't
(1) Mac coached under Wink...so he could be a philosophical clone might improve the previous scheme but still maintain its philosophy (still might team that relies on the blitz and gets burned by the blitz)"Those corners...and those safeties are going to be one-on-one... and we got to make them pay for it," Harbs
"I think hed be[Lamar] the greatest player in the history of the game, Young said

Re: Mike MacDonald - New DC
If he dumps cover zero and doesn’t expect both corners to be Deion Sanders, it is a step in the right direction.

Re: Mike MacDonald - New DC
Of course, you still need to have defense. I am just saying that the NFL, rightly or not, has changed the rules so much that points will be scored regardless (unless it's in a monsoon or snowstorm). You can't win with defense anymore, it complements the offense.

Re: Mike MacDonald - New DC
If you can't win with defense someone needs to tell the 49ers. They held Rodgers to 10 points in GB and they didn't do it with offense...
