I’m exciting to have Whitt. I think Forbes could have a breakout season with real coaching.

Let me know when Forbes has gained 25 pounds of muscle and is willing to hit somebody. Then he might be able to become a player of note.

Forbes will have at least 3 picks this year, book it!

Forbes obviously didn't come along as one would have hoped, but for now I'm chalking it up to coaching. I don't remember him shying away from contact though.

He had 1 in six starts last year, so I'd say that's a safe bet if he plays more.

I don't think interceptions necessarily work in that order. I think lots of guys have 1 pick, don't think there are many with 3 picks each year.

Only 24 guys had 4+.

Yeah, I wasn't insinuating there was a set ratio of interceptions to games played, I'm just saying if he gets more playing time my bet is he will probably have more INTs...maybe 2 more...? Maybe?

Anyway there were 43 players with at least 3 INTs last year.

Here's to Forbes being No. 44, or replacing guys on the current list.

I liked the Forbes pick at the time, so it could just be my pride, but I think he can definitely be successful in 2024.

Quinn/Whitt>>>>>> 2023 staff

Quinn has coached good defenses and Whitt has coached good secondaries. And it's a passing league now. We might fuck around and have at least a league average D in 2024.

Note - According to Wiki, our 2023 secondary coach was Cristian Garcia. No actual wikipedia page. But, don't want to pin anything on him either, he wasn't in charge.

I hope he gets a chance and balls out. The more likely scenario is he'll be a backup because we went out and got some dudes - either in the draft or free agency (or both).

But I agree 100% that Quinn/Whitt>>>>>> 2023 staff.

Christian Garcia was probably RR's nephew.

When I think about his potential, I am constantly reminded of Darrel green saying that he def thought it was a coaching issue.

I think every returning player on the roster come camp will be a potentially different story this year. I have no doubt this new staff will be a step up, whether it's capability, chemistry, leadership or any combination thereof. That gives everyone a better chance to excel than before. There are guys that we already know should show up (Scary, Allen, Payne, Cosmi etc.) and players I/we'd like to see step up like Forbes, Martin, St-Juste, Davis, Hudson, Dotson, Brown. We should get a clearer picture who the staff see as sticking once FA rolls around, but hopefully we get a bit aggressive on edge, LB and OL in FA.
