well, alright

we got one

so does this mean we're going to be a 3-4 team?

Hmmm...sort of late....well, I think it's great, if it's true. He was my fav remaining prospect.

I liked the numbers regarding Capers success. I think in most cases D's got better when he arrived as opposed to going the other way. I am all about results, so I hope this works out.

The 3-4 Question is indeed a good one. I'm neutral. I want success, if we hire buddy ryan and run the 4-6 I'm ok with it as long as we stop teams.

Excellent point. Don't matter what the heck he runs just hope that it stops the opponent.

hell ya... im drunk, i was born 28 years ago (in an hour) and ill definitely take this!!

dont buy into the 3-4 vs 4-3 ... the nfl today is not so black and white. capers will adjust exactly how he has to for us to improve on defense.

im sticking to my 11-5 ... but now it's 09

Capers is a strong, safe choice from a coaching standpoint. Seems to be well respected throughout the league, and would appear to be an upgrade in coaching experience and acumen from Sanders, Nolan and Williams, IMO, I don't believe McCarthy has any past relationship with Capers, so Patler will be relieved.

I'm anxious for the press conference to hear McCarthy and Capers talk about what they think about the future.

Now go and wreak some havoc Dom!

Great news! He's known for the 3-4, but he's had a chance the last couple of years to see first hand how Belichick utilizes a hybrid 3-4/4-3 defense. The big winner as far as players goes I feel will be A.J. Hawk who I thought was under-utilized in the Bates system. Don't worry about Kampman. Capers will have no trouble utilizing him.

So does this mean I rooted for the Cardinals for nothin?!



(yay, this is real good for us!)

I'm guessing even Wist may approve of this move.

Would that make the first move in forum history he liked, then?
