Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings

[skinsfan69]

Kap is a total mess and was outplayed by Gabbert. lol. I wouldn't want him either. He has no leadership skills, he can't run a pro offense, his mechanics are shot, sound familiar? Can't blame Shanahan one bit. He's already been there done that.

True. In their defense, I must say that most of them know how to run off good head coaches.

Does Chip Kelly have a mental illness? What the hell is he talking about? This is why he has problems with people...he's effin weird

[skinsfan69]

I think Kap will stay in SF. and they'll bring in competition. It's not like there's going to be a lot better out on the street. Maybe Griffin ends up there as well.

That's the rumor that RGIII will end up here.

If Griffin talks with DeSean there is no way he will go play for CK unless he has no other offers at all.

I thought the rumor was one of the Texas teams ,my bet is Houston,he'll play there not in Dallas.

I haven't been the biggest Joe Barry fan, but I started checking Defensive stats compared to last year and I was surprised by a few things....

2014 Pts/G 27.4 (tied 29th)
2015 23.7 (17th)

14 YPG 357 (21st)
15 381 (28th)

14 Rush/G 108 (7th)
15 123 (16th)

14 Pass/G 249 (24th)
15 258 (25th)

14 Int 7 (tied 28th)
15 11 (tied 21st)

14 FFumb 14 (tied 11th)
15 21 (1st)

14 DefTD 0 (tied for last)
15 2 (tied 17th)

14 Sacks 36 (tied for 21st)
15 38 (tied 14th)

So compared to last year.....
5 categories Improved, 3 categories slipped

We gave up more yards (Rushing, Passing & Total YPG) not a good thing,

.......BUT.....

we created more fumbles (a lot more) & had more interceptions, not to mention the 2 Defensive TD's.

And, the biggest surprise to me is that we ended this year with 2 more sacks than last year.

We also gave up less points per game this year (special teams play might have helped this).

All in all, for Joe Barry's first year, the numbers are encouraging and actually fared better than I gave him credit for.

p.s. - Master Joe Kim's success continues...the team improved 7 spots in sacks in just his first year. I wouldn't have guessed that either until I looked.

those 2015 numbers are after an offseason of almost purely defensive signings, yet outside of FF's the numbers are pretty much the same.

We added new players, new coaches - a different scheme.

The numbers might be similar, but when compared to everyone else, I think there was noticeable movement upwards.

We jumped up 12 spots in Points scored - HUGE improvement.
We jumped 7 spots in Interceptions and Sacks.

Hardly anything to sneeze at.

And turnovers hid a lot of the bad. How many more points and yards will we give up if we get an average amount of turnovers?

honestly the best thing we can do for our D next year is get our running game figured out. our run/pass ratio was good this year, and the ToP difference would have really helped keep the D rested and off the field, but we were abjectly terrible at running the ball pretty much all year.

that and healthy corners. we lost a LOT of guys to IR this year.

Yes, Yes, and Yes.

Running game can improve defense and make the passing game easier.

Rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic. We were bad last season, we were bad this season.

I think a coach needs at least a couple years to implement his system, really a few if you are head coach. But there is nothing in Barry's resume to suggest we are going to become a good defense, including this year. TO's are good, but you can't rely on them. Even the areas we improved, we are still bad in.
