If we keep the same structure, we MUST go after DBs

The past two years he's done just fine with average DEs. His system clearly starts with the DBs and works it's way forward. With the breakdowns and injuries this year he's been forced to play more zones, lay off the pressure, and as a result we've seen more big plays than ever.

His system works when you have guys that can man up in the secondary and he can bring heat from anywhere on the field.
