Retaining Gray in Zimmers staff would not be a bad idea. I don't think the players using off coverage is Gray's choice, rather than a use of the total system.

Re: Defensive Coordinator for 2010
 

I honestly would not be surprised if Gray is the next DC. He had to have been promised something to stab Zorn (and minority coaches everywhere) in the back the way he did.

[quote=CRedskinsRule;651046]Hey BHA, what do you think of John Mara firing Sheridan up in NY? Isn't it overstepping the owner's role?[/quote]

I'm not familiar with their front office structure. Is the owner also the GM? If not, then perhaps there were differing opinions between the GM and owner on what needed to be done. I certainly think there is more than meets the eye going on behind the scenes in New York (my personal crazy conspiracy theory is that they'll end up with Cowher before its all said and done). Either way, i was half expecting coughlin to be fired as well.

Re: Defensive Coordinator for 2010
 

Jerry Reese is NY's GM.

Re: Defensive Coordinator for 2010
 

cowher is going to Buffalo or Jacksonville if Del Rio is let go.

Re: Defensive Coordinator for 2010
 

I hope this is true.

Mike Nolan's Defenses avg. 30 plus turnovers/ year . J. Gray if he is more aggressive than GB . R. Crennel is a fine DEF Coach .

On an unrelated note, I found this interesting...

Blake won't be the DC, he hasn't even been a position coach yet! Maybe in time but not now

I don't think the article says anything about him being DC.

Re: Defensive Coordinator for 2010
 

i like gregg williams even though it wont happen, i have a feeling jerry gray will have some role on the defense especially after he hooked snyder up with that rooney rule bullshit interview

Re: Defensive Coordinator for 2010
 

[quote=Longtimefan;651128]I had thought maybe none of the holdovers would be retained, but I agree about Zimmer & Gray, providing none of Blaches' personality has rubbed off on him. I can't help but wonder what the rookies (including Orakpo) thinks of coming to a team to get their first NFL experience and have your coordinator tell you "he does not talk to rookies".[/quote]
I'd say keep on Wachenheim too, he's only been here a year.

Re: Defensive Coordinator for 2010
 

I want Zimmer....

Re: Defensive Coordinator for 2010
 

I think a rookie would say...I better work my ass of if that coach doesn't talk to rookies and try to earn a spot as a starter.

that's called incentive.

Re: Defensive Coordinator for 2010
 

GRAY as Defensive Cordinator!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I totaly disagree with that one!!!! Unloyal POS is what he is. Just in MHO. Keep the Rats off the New SHip!!!
