Perhaps he can.
When he returned to Tampa Bay in 2007, he took them from 19th ranked pass defense --> to the top ranked pass defense in one year. It's great to have a former head coach / D-coordinator take a small position like this -- hope he rejuvenates our secondary. Hard to know what to expect since it seems we're giving him average talent, but perhaps if he uses them correctly - I'm hoping they overperform this year.
And yet, I'd wager that IF we struggle this year, it will most likely be due to this troubled secondary. RG3 should help our offense, but might not be able to keep up if other offenses score 50 points in games like in the past. In this pass-driven league, there is no substitute for a good / deep secondary and bruising D-line. We also have concerns in O-line, LB depth, RB, a number one WR -- but I'd say the secondary dwarfs the other issues.
Hope Morris helps & stays for a while.
