‘Wink’ is the New Defensive Coordinator

Agressiveness is a nice word but it has to be more than an attitude or else we're screwed. There has to be some schemes to carry that into results.
Letting players take shots is one way to do so but not our whole defense can afford to take risks. There better be some control in that chaos.
It will be interesting to see the defensive players we add through the draft. This should tell us more about what Wink means by agressiveness.

Further confirms what I thought: Wink is not going to be Pees 2.0. Obviously, this season has to play itself out, but I'm looking forward to see how our defense looks with a different play-caller at the helm.

Can't wait to watch the Titans games this year and see how many games they blow. Hell even Flacco will just tell Crabtree and everyone else just to run short routes since they play 20 yards off and get an automatic 10 yards every play until we score and Titans fans scream in terror at how how they could have been in the playoffs if not for blowing leads.

A defense that lets Bowser play in space and rely on his instincts is perfect for him. He'll fit Wink's defense well.
If he picks up where he left off, we're looking at double digit sacks.
I wouldn't call Pees' scheme anything near basics but even if that was the case, what example do you have of them not executing well?
What basics did they struggle with?

I can only remember Orr (in the beginning), W.Hill, K.Lewis, Correa struggling with the scheme. Most of the guys weren't strong enough, lacked technique or didn't execute well.

There weren't many basics to execute in pees scheme, unless you're referring to simple run stopping and gap integrity, which he would often ask our pass rush specialists to do and pull them off the field on pass plays

I can't wait to see how Bowser plays next season if he's actually used properly, which I have faith that Wink will do. He should end up being our best coverage LB and could also be lethal in certain blitz packages. And if Tim Williams also breaks out? Our defense could be scary...
I've been a fan since he got drafted and in watching film anytime he was playing I wasn't disappointed one bit. Give him playing time and he'll ball out.

4th and 12
you suggesting the players excuted every play to perfection?
If not then there you go.
Same, liked him coming out, but he was @Simbas man.
4th and 12 etc is not "the basics" that was an over-complicated look designed to create maximum confusion for dalton and gave the defenders extra distance to travel - it put mosley in the toughest spot of all and he couldnt compensate - that in no way is "the basics"
not perfectly executing every play is not failing at the basics especially in pees scheme - if we were in a our vanilla versions of every package and still didnt execute then you could argue we didnt execute the basics but notice that the most vanilla our scheme ever was was in the first 2 games of the year and we absolutely dominated teams by executing the basics at a higher level than any other team in the league
obviously that isnt sustainable because teams adjusted and so did we by adding complexity and for the mostpart it worked but later in the year we had to add extra complexity to compensate for the loss of jimmy smith and that's when the defence significantly declined on an execution standpoint

No fucking player does, you're still doing this? That 4th and 12 play is a perfect example of why there are no "basics" to execute In his complicated as fuck scheme. Yeah let's have 2 primary deep cover guys in weddle and Mosley show blitz on 4th and 12, because they'll be able to reach their zone quick enough right?

what exactly about canady assignment was complicated?
what was complicated about making the freaking tackle after the ball was caught?
