Falcons Fan MVP Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Lovie Smith is officially available. Do you think that the Falcons may try to bring in Lovie Smith as the next DC? He seems like a coach players love and respect. I don't know if he has any ties to our coaching staff or if his defense fits Arthur Smith's vision. Your thoughts?

kiwifalcon Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Want Pees back to see what he can do with some talent and I want to see this FO go all in to load up on defensive talent. I got a sneaking suspicion we aren’t seeing what a real Pees scheme can look like.Give the guy another year before he rides off on his HoF resume.

For some people (here), that's a Monday morning. If a vocal minority of TATF had its way, Kyle Shanahan would have been fired after one season, and probably AS too.

Talk about fitting a square peg in a round hole I'm not saying the Falcons should hire Lovie, but under Pees they have had bottom 10 defenses both years. Lovie comes from the same coaching tree as Dan Quinn and Raheem Morris. Morris, frankly, got better results in 2020. The Falcons have a lot of players acquired for the 4-3 and they haven't really acquired any player of any significance for Pees system.

rcky_mtn_falcon Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 I think our best bet might be Jared Mayo from New England. He had 2 years of overlap with Pees as the DC when he was a player. He's played and coached under Belichik for 14 years, and is currently the ILB coach for the Patriots. He has a ton of experience in a 3-4 and has coached alongside some great defensive coaches. He's young but should be ready to take that next step. Norwood all the way! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We aren't trying to replicate that, at least I hope not. Also, even if we have some players that could fit into a 4-3, our players have been taught and coached up a certain way for the past couple years. Implementing a different system will require the players we do have now to learn again which will take more time to maximize our potential.
