re: Defensive scheme

I don't think we'll know for sure until the season starts. My understanding is the Coleman will be one of the starting 3 LB's (with Riley and Cutrera), not just on passing downs.

In contrast to last yr where the was mass subsitution on seemingly every play, it sounds like Chavis's approach is to keep his starting outfit on the field. However, I don't take that to mean there will never be a nickle/dime package.

My hope is that with Peterson and Hawkins/Eugene at CB, we'll be able to play more man defense which will allow us to be more agressive in the box.
