I'd like to see our defense play better too, but for sake of discussion:
1. It is a very young team
2. He inherited a bad defense with lots of personnel changes needed in players and coaches
3. They have improved from year 1 to year 2
4. Give them a chance in regular season and see if improve year 2 to 3
5. They have had some reasonable results in preseason as a group winning two games and possibly winning third, with three turnovers forced last game.
6. they are playing fairly smart with few dumb penalties
7. maybe its the players who need to rush the passer, not the coach
8. maybe it is the DB that needs to knock down pass, not the coach
9. trying to stay optimistic and positive during preseason
