1.) What's his system? Having Justin Tuck, Osi, JPP & Michael Strahan on the DL? Yeah, nobody has the players to fit that system save the NYG.
It's a system that calls for smaller (in weight;quicker) defensive linemen and stouter linebackers and big physical players in the secondary. It's an aggressive zone-blitz scheme. GW liked his linemen beefy and his linebackers small and 5'11 corners.
If Spags went through more than one pre season game and couldn't tell that we didn't have those types of players and didn't make adjustments, He is an idiot and should be fired on principal.
Also, why the hell did Ellis start and play so much at the begining of the year? He's opposite of that. Where were Hicks and Gallett and Wilson if that was the case? Why didn't we have Gallett/Wilson/Smith at DE and Jordan/Hicks/Buckley at DT?
And yeah, Singletary made San Fran into a pretty good defense. I'm not sure why he doesn't get more looks as a DC.

He brought in as many new players as he could, but what was he suppose to do? "Well shite, I guess I have to run GW's defense." He was brought in to change things.

Hicks was very raw. Junior and Wilson played their fair share, and Jordan moved in on the inside as well. The shite wasn't working very well at first, mostly (imo) because our two outside linebackers at the beginning of the year were Shanle and Herring.
