Re: Raheem Morris to the Redskins
Unless you're really close to the team & know the dynamics of the staff/player relationships, I find it hard to assess the impact of a position coach change. A coordinator change can be easily observed from the outside; you can see the change in scheme & overall performance. Position coaches by nature will have drastically different impacts from team to team based on how the coordinator runs that unit.
I actually disagree for the most part that the secondary was really disappointing. I thought they played decently this year. Of course I'd love to see some upgrades there, but that's the case for this team across the board. I don't think it is anywhere near our greatest need.
I think most of our sacks were coverage sacks. If we timed each sack this year I would bet that most passed the common threshold (whatever that is, I don't know) for how long a QB should hold the ball. Orakpo forced a lot of throws or scrambles, otherwise it was rare that pressure got to the qb early in his read, even when blitzing.
