Can the rest of the staff pull the Defense around?

I'm hoping the D-line's main problem is they're just young and inexperienced. I'm also hoping as the season goes on their play will improve and we'll start to see them live up to their potential.

I don't know if I buy that Cosgrove has been relieved of his DC status. Callahan made no mention of it today.. and I'm not sure this is the kind of thing that could be kept under the table. Although, now that the rumor is out there I'm sure it will get brought up and be confirmed/denied tomorrow.

When someone loses their coaching position, doesn't that have to be reported?

Callahan would never confirm it was true if asked.

 
No.. I mean if he was relieved as a Defensive Coordinator, wouldn't that have contract implications? I don't think he could dodge that.. wouldn't that have to be made public?

 
Oh...I'm not sure on that aspect. My uneducated guess would be Coz is still the DC by title alone with the understanding he will probably be gone at the end of the season. Callahan may also be trying to get Coz a job in the NFL so Coz can "move on to bigger and better things".

 
Secondary has to be taught better at closing down those angles that give up an additional 10,20,30 yards. Definately need some footwork & speed drills. Linebackers need a ton of hitting & wrapup drills using both arms. And coaches need to get rid of the whistle and run these guys to the ground hitting over and over and over. Rest up on friday. Its football man. If you get hurt, sorry but tough it up already. Quit being a bunch of wussies. It's football man. Get that gang tackling drill going. And quit being owned by a damn blocker. Earn your blackshirt or get out, and get somebody else in until someone proves they earn it by doing it over and over and over. Is that too demanding, too difficult? So what. I need 25 of the toughest dudes to step up and prove it to me minute after minute, day after day. Then prove it to yourself.

Of course, that would be my MO. But I'm not a coach. Heck, I didnt even sleep in a Holiday Inn. :thumbs

Peace-OUT!

Ah, well if that is the case it will get leaked and confirmed soon, cally can dodge it if he wants but if the media asks the right questions he will pretty much have to confirm it (in not so many words) or blatantly lie.

I'm sure this rumor will either go away or be as good as confirmed in the next few days.
