I don't get the whole "Spags is a good DC" bit. He was good for 2 years with the Giants. They have been one of the best defenses before and after he was there. And that was the only place in the league he was a coordinator.


Most DCs are good when you have an elite front four that can get pressure and you can drop 7 guys in coverage, as the case w/ the Giants. That's every coordinators wet dream. Also, I'm sure he had a heavy hand in St. Louis's defense and they weren't impressive. Like I've been saying, he's fool gold.

He seems like a stand up guy. I hope the best for him and I hope he lands on his feet and gets another opportunity. He was put in a shitty situation, but he also did a shitty job. Payton canned Spags on the 2nd day back on the job, thats saying something.

Well, to be fair, he had to do it as soon as he got back, we are behind everyone else in that regard; Goodell has already fricked us early in this offseason. Maybe could've had a guy like Rob Ryan if we had more time.
