Do you think he could fill in for Fireman Ed?

hOW ABOUT AS A LINEBACKER COACH

If he wants the position, I say go for it. Sean Lee became a hell of a player under Rob.

Rob to the Saints. Could totally see him condoning (if not personally resurrecting) the bounty program.

Sean Lee was already becoming a good player, yea in 1 year lol.

Not really interested in having Rob here... Rex's Defense is great, Rob's ...meh...


BTW, Ryan is going to the SAINTS

After his ouster in Dallas, Ryan said, "I'll be out of work for like five minutes."

The St. Louis Rams visited twice with Ryan but ultimately decided not to hire him as his addition was not a good "scheme fit," according to coach Jeff Fisher.

Very good move by the Saints..

I thought the main reason the Rams deal fell thru was due to differences of opinion over scheme. Heard Ryan wanted to run a 3-4 there.
The Saints don't run a 3-4 either, unless that is changing? Maybe Vilma gets caught in yet another 3-4 scheme change.

I think Rob is a good hire for the Saints. The Saints don't have the personnel to just rush 3 or 4 and get constant pressure on the QB, so Rob's exotic looks should help them out a bit. I would be surprised if the Saints didn't go after a top CB in the draft, especially with Rob on board now. If Milliner is still there at #9, maybe the Saints would be willing to move up for him. That would give us at least an additional 3rd rounder.

I think Saints fans are going to be pulling their hair out watching Rob Ryan's unsound defense like Cowboys fans were the last couple of years.

Cowboys D improved quite a bit after Ryan got there. I think they were close to dead last prior to his arrival.

Opening day against the Giants was a brilliant game plan and execution.
as the season progressed they were pulling guys off the street to play LB due to injuries, and they still an ok D..

I think Rob is a good D coordinator but they also brought in good corners which helped turn that D around too. Jerry is a fool for firing him so soon but I don't think he is a "great" D coordinator.

Looks like we'll be playing Rob next year. He just got hired by the Saints.

No matter if it is Rob or Rex FB IMHO has long since passed them by
