BCEagles66 {l Wrote}:Why do people think that Diaco's 3-4 defense will not work at BC? I for one feel quite the opposite. Sure he'll need to find a stud NT, but our defensive lines are consistently a weak bunch (save for the Raji-Brace tandem). We generate ZERO pass rush from the front four.
On the contrary, our LB core is now a consistent strength. Someone prove me wrong here, but I think BC's biggest problem this year was Spazzo/McGovern being too stubborn and not utilizing more 3-4.
BC has been horrible on the DL since Brace/Raji I think more because of coaching. Those two were such dynamic guys that they were able to rise above the coaching. There is nobody on the current roster who can play at the level of Brace and Raji, but the coaching idea that they dont teach new moves and try to let players stick with the one move they know is ridiculous. I think even without an effective NT, you will see a difference in the DL play next year based on scheme alone. Honestly outside of McGovern (and only if he agreed to take a paycut and move back to LB coach) the entire fulltime defensive staff can go. I dont consider AW part of that staff because he was only an asst line coach and ST coach.
I really dont think that any of us understand the level of incompetence that we have had to suffer under the last few years untill we can see it in contrast to what Diaco employs.
