So do we run the same Tampa 2 that Rod ran in Tampa for his SB run or is this a hybrid? Whatever it is it doesn't produce TO's and bends far to much. Thoughts to what D would be best based on our current players.

We haven’t run Tampa 2 in awhile. The system here is single high safety. I’d prefer press man with hybrid 3-4/4-3 to disguise the rushers.
 
Not the Tampa 2. In Dallas it’s the vanilla 4 man front with 2 LBs, who should attack but dance around and miss tackles, CBs that also can’t tackle and never, ever locate the ball, and Safties that also can’t tackle defense.
 
When we get pressure with the front 4, we give big cushy zone coverages and allow them to dink and dunk. Bend but don't break is really "Bend until its breaks".

With the pass rushers we have we should be able to go into more man, need better safety play
 
Cover 1 or cover 3. Blitz once in a while.

The end
 
It's not a style issue, it's a personnel issue. IMO.

One could also argue we have personnel that are underperforming because of the scheme.

It seems like we've let go of DBS multiple times in the last decade and assumed they were toast only to see them go somewhere else and start for multiple seasons.

Im also wondering if our DTS not occupying blockers and keeping our LBS clean isn't having a negative effect on Jaylon and LVE.

Sucks.
