I LOVE the theory of adjusting to your players, but my issue is that most of the time it seems to be moore talk than actions that is actually followed through with.


Also, his teams have had clear coverage patterns and routines, with the type of coverages...


And in some ways, the majority of NFL teams are going to different but similar schemes in terms of rush four and drop everyone else back into conservative zone coverage and don't let the big pass plays kill you... make offenses slowly drive down the field and they'll make errors or you'll tighten up in the red zone...


Not all, but the majority of aggressive blitzer and man coverage schemes have been eaten alive that they're on the endangered list of going extinct, and part of that is probably due to less practice time of having the ability to have an audible out of everything... as some of the former Bears have talked about, Lovie Smith had multiple potential audibles for every potential look and they all knew them.


And interesting enough, a number of the more aggressive defensive coordinators are NFC North Division Defensive Coordinators.
