Since we are getting in the mood to start over, I took a look at the top defenses in the league for the first 3 weeks. Those who stop the run aren't necessarily the best, whereas the ones who contain the passing game also lead in Total Defense. I found a common thread - Baltimore Ravens coaches and ex-coaches. Mike Nolan, Rex Ryan, Mike Singletary, etc. have gone through that franchise. So, if we are looking for a head coach, I'm going to ask Brian Billick to quit doing those Coors Light commercials and NFL Network shows.

However, if we just want to re-shape the Defense, I'm suggesting Dennis Thurman.

Dennis Thurman spent six seasons coaching Baltimore's secondary, four as the secondary coach, two as defensive assistant alongside Rex Ryan. During his Ravens tenure, the team led the NFL with 126 interceptions and 18 interception returns for touchdowns while he was coaching, among others, Ed Reed (34 INTs, 2002-07), Chris McAlister, Samari Rolle and Deion Sanders.
