"There is a lot of unrest among the ranks. Players are resisting the new scheme because they don't like it, and are questioning why it was changed after what the defense did last year."
Coaches are doing a poor job implementing it. It's complicated and our guys are playing slow as a result."
"Quite Frankly a disaster on Multiple levels right now"
"The scheme is not poor in design, it's poor in execution for a multitude of reasons."
"The players are better than this, and the scheme is better than this. It's just a matter of getting guys on the same page and executing what needs to be done. It's a lot more complicated than what we previously ran, but in theory it's solid."
"Previously, our guys had to worry about pre snap reads nearly exclusively. This defense has both pre and post snap reads so it gives the guys more to thank about. Again, in theory it covers more bases but if not executed correctly it leads to poor position and guys playing slow. It's no coincidence that the tackling has been poor."

Pretty candid stuff from a guy that usually knows what's up.
