for me that's off the table to consider. I do think that what we see and how we play in those 1st 2-4 games will not stay static....It'll take a few games to get the whole plan/idea going. Morris isn't going into a full change, but I think he's going to go in maybe a more pressure type D, more blitzes from players from and all positions to go along from what Staley formed.
It's going to take a while to "test" out his roster to get a feel for who does best at those rush spots, he may have an idea from film, but it's different in person IMO. I think they will mature as the season goes, end up in the top 5-7 D's. The O will improve to offset the slight D drop and our ST's will improve to at least above serviceable.....The D will fall off but overall the team will be more potent, explosive.
Hopefully, Morris will have OTA’s, regular camp, and preseason games with which to observe and tinker.
I’ll say this. While we did finish with the #1 D statistically, there were too many times that the D let us down. I’d much prefer a top 5 D that had fewer letdowns. Sounds like that’s Morris’ goal.
