haha yeah that's the first thing I thought, but if you look at his work through the entire year he definitely earned it. I can't wait to see what he can do when we actually have more than 1 experienced, playmaking CB again.

Thanks to pack93z for the sig!!!

He's laid a great foundation. Secondary issues aside, no one can take away anything from the job he did with the run defense. Shut down AP twice, shut down Ray Rice, shut down Barber (with some help from Wade) and on and on.

Hopefully, he can continue his work with the secondary.

It's easy to see how effective he was, because the defense was way better with almost the exact same players as the year before. This upcoming year will be important, though. Capers has a record of bringing major improvements to a new defense in his first season, but then falling back in his second year. I've never heard an explanation for this. Do opposing teams figure out what he is doing? Or do his teams become complacent? This will be something to watch for.

He has a disconcerting tendency to get tentative and conservative in big games against important opponents. I'm not much impressed with a bully who beats up on little kids but puts away the gloves when the big boys come by. I want to see him put up an aggressive fight against better opponents before I'm totally sold on him.

I cannot deny the incredible improvement in run defense, though. I just wonder if we didn't sell out our pass defense to bolster our run defense.

But the run defense also sucked against the Cardinals. They just had our number that day. It looked like eleven against nine. Hopefully the defense can be improved further with some more fresh talent next year. I'm a little worried that Capers may be a guy who can only take a defense so far. Only a little worried, though. I do think he's one of the better DC's in the league.

I can't think that he sold out the pass defense in lieu of the run defense. Not with 3 CBs going on IR.
