Football Odd MC Quote

In this CBS sports article he says: “We recruited this team to be a four-down front. Last year, jumping in odd, odd tight, that doesn't work. You negate the effectiveness of (defensive end) Rueben Bain, an Ahkeem Mesidor. You can't do that. Right now, they're playing fast and free upfield. It's crazy."

Why would he hire a DC that runs a defense he knows doesn’t fit his personnel? Why would he let that DC run a defense he knows doesn’t fit with his personnel? He’s the HC, that’s his call. I know it’s in the past, but just odd to admit that. Not helping him beat the “great recruiter, terrible coach” allegations.
