The Dude Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 Has Chinander peaked or will we see more improvement next season? While there's definitely been improvement there he's still never fielded a top 50 defense in his entire career as a defensive coordinator. It's kind of amazing how far our expectations have fallen here. It was not that long ago Banker was fired for fielding a defense that was ranked 33rd in the country. Now it's all "mission accomplished" for Chinander fielding the 56th. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Now it's all "mission accomplished" for Chinander fielding the 56th. My only point was that Chinander was the main source of skepticism, at that time, of him bringing his whole staff. It’s not that we’ve reached the pinnacle of defense but that the DC is now pretty dang low on the list of issues. And my hindsight comments were not directed at you but rather at the guy who is claiming Frost was just a good ole boy hire for the fanbase and he knew better all along (even though that was not his position 4 years ago). Everybody loved the hire 4 years ago, and if anyone didn’t they were silent about it. The fact it hasn’t gone as expected does not change it being a homerun hire at the time. Bringing his whole AAC staff along is a completely different issue that did have a lot of detractors. 1 Quote Link to comment

Some of you paint with a very broad brush. Hey Nostradamus do you happen to own a sock puppet by chance? 2 Quote Link to comment
