Default Can We Fix It? (the secondary)

I hate to be a pessimist but I need to vent.

We have big problems and we've made some horrible decisions with personnel-specifically in the secondary. We've opted for quicker players...but it seems they lack the aggressiveness of (last 10 yrs)-Otis Smith Tebucky Jones, Ty Law, Wilson, Samuels etc....etc......list goes on

I'm really disappointed and angry at the Bodden move. That was stupid.

I'm not a coach and I don't see the practices daily either-so I don't know what's best for the team to win.

Buffalo looks great right now....

Love BB but...

Bumble B. is not a good DB coach.

Who did he have come in to help a couple of yrs. ago? Dom Capers?

We drafted :

1.Butler CB (2nd round)-gone.
2.Merriweather S (1st)-gone!
3.Wilhite CB (4th)-gone
4. Wheatley CB (2nd)-gone
5.McGowan S (CHI)-gone
6. Sanders S -gone!
7. Bodden (DET(- gone!
8. McCourty CB (1)- ACTIVE
9. Dowling CB (Top 2nd)- OUT
10. Chung S (2nd)- ACTIVE (gotta stay healthy or we're done!)

The issue is developing our DB's...better coaching.
Bill needs help

Not to mention all the drafted/undrafted linebackers...Crable, Woods,Alexander and all the other....Adalius ...Burgess etc etcThomas and even further back to Beisel and Chad Brown

Its great to have Mayo back but we've got to rush Spikes more. I think we need to take more chances on defense as far as pressure and get Ochocinco and Tate into the game! Why isnt Tate returning kicks?

Mcourty regaining last years form would be a start.

Work on applying the pressure they worked on during the preseason game vs the Bucs and the secondary will not be an issue too much. We will definite see that defense again very shortly.
Spikes as Mike and Mayo as the Will. That is all they really practiced during open training camp. Injuries and other situations has set this back, but in due time, in due time.

It's sad too, because the D's plans were dependent upon him being an island. If he was as good as they thought he'd be, they'd probably have a mediocre defense instead of a piss-poor one.
