People are way too hard on Dom Capers.

A lot of Eagles fans myself included get's frustrated with Marty's playcalling, he way too often goes to all pass mode. Which is silly given LeSean McCoy, and we need to help the Oline/Vick and the best way to do that is to run the ball.

Juan relies a lot on 4 man rush, which is smart given our Dline. Only 5 or 7 sacks, but we generate a good amount of pressure, and we have the lowest QB rating against us. The run defense have improved a lot. Ravens was running on us with relative ease in the first half, in the second half Rice had like 6 yards on 6 carries.

I think Juan get's help from some good coaches in Bowles and Washburn and a talented defense, but credit where it's due, he himself have been good. Also for all 4 of our starting games we have let the other teams offense have good field position must of the time due to terrible KO coverage or turnovers.

Marty is frustrating, but we can move the ball, next project is scoring TD's when we're in the redzone.

First three weeks I would have said McD was in the convo but Pats did well against the Bills so I won't hate too much. At times tho he can frustrate us so much with his stupid gimmicks and stubbornness.

Sullivan is more conservative with a lead than I would like to see and we rarely take shots downfield early in ball games. We'll see if that changes later on in the year.

Sheridan has transformed our run defense from one of the worst to one of the best. That's quite an accomplishment because our run defense has been awful over these last few years.

Jerry Gray is the absolute worst DC in the history of the world. No pressure, no imagination, no tackling, and ZERO adjustments. The CBs play 10 yards off their man, while the safeties line up 30 yards off the line of scrimmage and immediately backpedal off the snap.

As a disgruntled Chiefs fan, I'd rank Daboll around the middle of the pack so far. He's got a hard job with plenty of talent to use, but a QB who is embarassing the team. You don't want to run Charles into the ground and you do have plenty of weapons to throw to, which would keep the defense honest, but with Cassel's inaccuracy, inability to find the open guy, and the turnovers, what do you do? Sometimes we are predictable when we're gonna run, but I blame this on Cassel. We came out with 3 strait passes against SD and the 3rd one was an awful INT.

One big complaint, he uses a FB...yet we have no FB on the team so we use our 5th string RB as a FB, thus taking one of our weapons OFF the field.

Romeo is without a doubt in contention for worst DC THIS year. He seemingly can't handle double duties. Anybody who watched the Chiefs would agree they don't come out prepared on D and take too long to adjust if they do at all. The last two games have been much better. Overall, I think Romeo is one of the best...it remains to be seen if he's closer to the top like normal or truly can't pull double duty.

I don't know what Chiefs fan would say Daboll's one of the worst at this point...we're not the kind of fan base to overrate/underrate. Romeo is a legit complaint as a HC/DC.
