re: Looks like Richard to be announced this week

I'm just saying that it's kind of odd to state Carroll endorses him, when Carroll also fired him.

I usually just ignore this and let people be wrong but just to point out, Pete went another direction because KR blitzed more than he felt confortable with. I forget how the article worded it, but there was a minor philosophical difference and Pete felt it was time for him to find a place that suited his style better. Saying he was fired is ridiculous. He was a good DC in the NFL if not a great one. Just a little more aggressive than what Pete wanted. Can we stop the false narrative that Kris Richards did something wrong to lose that job because it’s simply not true. He called his defense the way he always does and it worked well, despite all the injuries that last year.
