[QUOTE="Hoppy2105, post: 1419381, member: 9835"] I think part of that is due to losing an NFL veteran as the D line coach and replacing him with a rookie. We always say games are won and lost in the trenches, so there is some merit to that thought. Lovie also doesn’t have the depth yet for all of his defensive positions nor is the depth he DOES have experienced. We also upgraded his son to DB coach right? Maybe it’s not working out? I feel like we could see position coach changes if things don’t turn around. However, I don’t think Nickerson will be gone. And I don’t think they will change the scheme. Lovie believes his D will be good once he gets the experienced athletes to run it. That will be year 4-5. So in a way, he probably will sink or swim with this D. [/QUOTE]
