I still don’t think Chin has all his pieces in place to run the defense he wants to. My next question is, which how long do we give him before chasing him out of town?
We clearly lack some things needs to run a good 3-4 defense like pass rushing OLB and run stuffing ILB. Problem is, next year we lose a very good NT and still haven’t upgraded our LB’s, that we know. To your point about needed big time guys like Watt to run it. He had Hughes and Griffin at UCF and was still middle of the pack nationally. I am optimistic about the long term outlook of our offense, but the defense is another story.What “pieces” does he need? Is he not going to field a legit defense until he has JJ Watt and Luke Kuechly?
Fine. Then don’t run the 3-4 until you do have those pieces. If the players you inherited are better suited for a 4-3 then run the damn 4-3, recruit better, and slowly shift to the 3-4.We clearly lack some things needs to run a good 3-4 defense like pass rushing OLB and run stuffing ILB.

Something. However, I wonder how good of a D we will have, even then. Like I said he wasn’t great at UCF, even with with multiple NFL players against AAC competition. He is young and can still evolve and we did improve this year from last year. But I’m not feeling great about the outlook on D, right now.Fine. Then don’t run the 3-4 until you do have those pieces.

The potential upgrades at LB are still young and unproven, but if Henrich, Hannah, Snodgrass, Reimer and Hodge can at least compete against Miller, Honas, Tannor, Domann and Nelson for starting positions, we may develop a difference-maker for the future.We clearly lack some things needs to run a good 3-4 defense like pass rushing OLB and run stuffing ILB.

I know Frost was a stubborn and confident person. I honestly never thought he would let it get in the way of turning this around.Staff Stubborness reigns supreme.
A pass rusher/Shaquim Griffin type player? We have domann but I don’t think he’s using him like we could due to being limited with our lb’s? We do not have that player that can run down a running back from the backside of a play or blitz at a whim.What “pieces” does he need?
