So when you use little of your cap space on defense and have a mediocre DC you get unacceptable defenses?

Wow, who knew?

I can't believe we are 30th in defensive spending. cheap cheap cheap

If nothing else, the two home losses and the bye finally have people talking about the problems on defense for Dallas for all these years.

I guess it only took a second quarterback playing like one of the best in the league for people to finally say, "Hey, the problem might be the defense."

The thing with Marinelli is that his scheme works fine if you have great players in about six positions. Of course, you could say that about most defensive coordinators.

The problem is that his scheme isn't built to adjust when you don't have those players. Some DCs can take OK talent and scheme it to play better than it is. Marinelli's scheme is based on sound fundamentals and winning individual battles. The fundamentals will let you do that some, but ultimately talent wins out when you go head to head.
