But, the bottom line here is that Denver just lost a very good defensive coordinator, only to be replaced by — shockingly — another Bill Belichick disciple from New England, as reports are that Dean Pees is on his way to Denver.
The Broncos made a huge jump this season with some veteran additions that played well in Nolan’s scheme. I understand that the Denver defense did contribute to the club’s 2-8 finish after the 6-0 start, but the point here is that you have to have some sense of structure and stability as a football team.

I think we have scored a great DC to this team. Now we just need to add the right players to fit his scheme.:up:

Re: Broncos lose structure with Nolans departure
I guess we can infer that we also lost stability by switching DC's too.

I suspect Adalious Thomas winds up in Miami though. -

Wow. Two legitimate DCs sign on in the same week.
They must like the scheme. -
Now gimme a new Safety ( Gibril wilson is garbage)
a new MLB ( channing crowder talks more **** then he does tackles & sacks added together)
and the D will be good -

one man's loss is another man's gain

we played w/ two SS in the defensive backfield
one will probably go: Bell is my best guess.
not much difference, other than age between them
look for Clemons to start & another FS to be drafted
p.s. Wilson is not garbage, he is an excellent StrongSafety & Crowder our starting ILB & defensive play-callerAnonymous likes this. -
Wilson's play in the last half of the year was much better, I don't know where all the hate is coming from. He's playing out of position, and actually did a fairly manageable job with some of the more elite offenses in the NFL. As an FS, yes, we could ask for more, but I definitely think we need to have an open competition at SS next year, as he definitely seems more adept at sniffing out the run.
As for Crowder, I'm ok with him staying, because I think he'll be alright behind an ILB who can get some good play. But playing him teamed up with the rest of our mediocre ILB corps is just tough to watch. -
to turn around a defense that allowed the 3rd worse points allowed in 40 years for the Dolphins.
This defense needs a major overhaul
All linebackers need to be replaced this or next season
Our linebackers have ZERO foot speed...ZERO
Our safeties both need to be replaced
again lack of speed and coverage abilities
Nose tackle needs to be addressed
The two rookies have to play much better
allowing 1588 yards and 10 tds between them is not good
Make no mistake this defense needs more than 2 players to become goodLandShark13 likes this. -
