to run a base cover-2 is really hard nowadays...you need perfect personnel for it. Lovie needs to realize this and don't play cover-2 from the base, but rather run hybrid and keep teams somewhat guessing. cover-2 can still be pretty effective when teams dont expect it every two downs, and you have talent for it

Once Butlers get a new strong safety and more depth at corner his D's gonna be among the best in the league. He just has arguably the two worst dbs in the league starting for him. Rest of our secondary is solid.
Why couldn't we have got Revis:mjcry:

Ive never been more angry about a draft before. I remember screaming at the screen, I was pissed at the Jets. Tomlin wanted him so bad.:wow:

Eh,.......
Was just feeling the reactionary idea and the fact our d is not on a damn thing.
I just feel.
We won't get better.
Which means, another superbowl.
Until, we either miss the off's.
or get someone who patches this d, with what we have.
As lovie was excellent with sometime'y style cover guys like we have.
By getting sumfin out of nuffin and also peanut Tillman.
who was in shock because of the care and health of his child at the time.
So, he managed this situation with the worst mental headcase from the worst possible situation.
To almost won with the bears and the same anemiac play as it pertained to cover on one side of the field.

I am all for the feel good story.
Especially one,....
That makes sense to fix an exact problem.
Given the fact or issue is exactly defense and exactly poor coverage and manage those issues on that side of the ball.
I felt lovie is a good quick fix.
to possibly playing up defensive to win a superbowl for another season.
Where our team is never bolstered.
All because we doN't get the sanctity of a weak non-playoff schedule team.
To one re-up with quality higher picks in the draft and the other is.
we don't get the luck of a non-playoff team Weighted schedule to take advantage of.
I, feel our issues all started the year we were to rebuild.
Yet magically made the offs because of a bubble fringe wildcard rule.
That to this day and this very year has landed us in the off's, again via a bubble fringe wildcard team ruling.
When, we are a weak schedule and a non-playoff team draft away from the superbowl.
With our current setup.
We don't have the defensive coordinator.
Who can make do the same way lovie knows from experience.
Namely in Chicago and now, tb.
how to manage this situation with no adequate support from the fo and adequate payroll dispersement to talent for their play.
In this situation lovie would have front office support.
He could manage the team and be malleable in a legacy 3-4 defense, the gimmick formation draw of our team defense marketing and aesthetic wise


Plus, I like the feel good reactionary nature of the story.
Especially, if it works in the Steelers favor.
Including, the look it gives for black America.

I wouldn't mind him pulling a Munchak and coming to coach up LBs or DBs.. But not to run the defense
