You had previously said that at the end of the offseason, you will have seen every look from Rob Ryan’s defensive unit. Did you see some of that today with some of those exotic looks?
“We’re only a couple of installs in, it’s been base and a little bit of nickel, so I think we’re just scratching the surface of what we’re going to see. But that’s the fun part, to see our defense every day get more comfortable with the stuff that’s being installed in Rob Ryan’s scheme and system, the way they’re being coached. We have some great leaders on our defense, some really smart guys that are picking it up quickly. It’s a challenge for us offensively because we’re seeing some things that we haven’t seen in a while, or ever. You always have to find ways to combat that.”
Was there an element of surprise? Such as when Curtis Lofton came up the middle (through the line), because he wasn’t used that way very much last year?
“I think we’re experimenting with a lot of stuff right now. Seeing how everyone is going to fit into the new scheme, how we can put every guy in a position to succeed according to their strengths and certainly you have to keep people off-balance and change things up quite often. But, yes, it’s interesting to see how it all plays out here.”
