Sometimes the context doesn't fit for whatever reason. I don't think he ever would have knocked through here. He didn't pick the right DCs, but that style of football is also not conducive to attracting a good DC or good defensive players because they are asked to be on the field too long to have prolonged success. I also just am not a fan of his style of football. He somehow made high octane football boring. I don't ever need to see a 50-47 game ever again. But he is obviously is a gifted coach when it comes to the offensive side of the ball, and that style of football can find success in other contexts.

You say that, but Wilcox's best defenses were all off Dykes' recruits. They just didn't develop them was the problem.
But the youtube highlight video of Goff is really exciting.
