Re: If we keep Archuletta...
This goes for every one on Defense, not just Arch ... determine each individual's strengths and weaknesses (football coaching 101!), and then
RE-EVALUATE YOUR SCHEMES TO BEST UTILIZE EACH PLAYERS'S STRENGTHS ... Gee, what a novel idea !!
Watcha' think, Greg ... maybe this could work ??!!
Of course, it helps to have reasonably healthy secondary, but Archuletta's strength is as a physical, "7th or 8th man in the box" kind of "monster back".
So why not think "outside the box" Greg, and create a defensive scheme that utilizes Arch's strength ... who knows, you could even come up with some catchy number reference, like your mentor Buddy Ryan did in Chicago with the '46' Defense. You wanted this kid real bad last off-season, and you got him. Now, get to work and create a defense that allows him, and others, to play to his strengths and succeed. You're one of the highest paid Defensive Coaches in the game ... start makin' like EF Hutton, and "earn it" !!
