re: Convince me that Spanuolo will do better next year.

Williams' blitz 65% of the time defense hid the weaknesses this defense really had. It was a gimmick defense that worked well enough to win a Super Bowl. It out immediate pressure on QBs forcing bad passes and creating turnovers. It got figured out.

Now we're moving towards a legitimate defensive scheme and the players aren't used to it. We have the get a pass rush from our front 4 which we didn't do the first several weeks. Spags has made adjustments and those are working. The defense hasn't lost the last three games for us. The defense gave up yards but kept points off the board and gave the opportunity for the offense to win the game. The offense hasn't taken a single one of the opportunities the past three weeks.
