Shouldn't we assume that Trey who managed to lead the league in sacks under Lou's player-killing leadership is going to be much better as well?
The guy lead the league in sacks playing for Lou while Lou was supposedly making our players worse.
There is a big difference between LB and Safety that need to read and react to plays in an over complicated system as opposed to a guy that pins his ears back and just gets after the QB.
One relies on the system more while the other is purely athletic ability and beating the guy across from you.
The big issue with Lou and the last D-line coach was not developing the young guys coming out of college on the D-line.
Lou was not willing to change his system to fit the players, and the D-line coach was not getting progress out of the D-linemen developing.
