From the article: "As Ted Nguyen of The Athletic detailed in an article last week, Macdonald’s scheme features a unique level of positional versatility and interchangeability. That allows him to constantly mix his fronts and pressures, which leaves opposing offenses struggling to determine where exa...

Agreed. Everything aligns... Jody isn't content with simply competing and wants to win, Schneider is a skilled and open minded president and GM, Macdonald is a young and dynamic head coach with a top notch hand-picked support staff. Everyone appears to be on the same page.

Exciting times ahead!

For Macdonald, that means learning more about his players and what they can and cannot do.

Oh, and an offensive coordinator who makes it easier on his players and has actual freedom to run the offense. Go figure.

My gut tells me that if things go well (solid schemes, no injuries, players buy in, etc.), they could win 10 games.

Do you think signing him the first time was more a PC or Schneider pursuit? I've got to think Pete. It's still weird to me how a defense-first guy like Pete produced such disasters on D recently. Did the game just pass by his dinosaur rah-rah ass? Anyway, I'm really glad we made the switch this yea...
