In 2022 alone, Georgia had 8 players selected in the draft, with 5 of those coming in the first round, that's not a typo. Almost half of Georgia's defense was selected in the first round. Despite losing half of their defense, they'd be the 1st ranked rushing defense, 2nd ranked in third-down efficiency, and 5th in points allowed. Only a year later, 5 more Georgia defenders were drafted, 3 of them by the same team, the Eagles (but that's for another newsletter). Over the last two years, the...

In 2011 after the Philadelphia Eagles fired Sean McDermott, they hired..... Longtime Offensive Line Coach Juan Castillo to take his place, as the new Defensive Coordinator. No need to re-read that sentence... You read it right the first time. You can't even do this in Madden wtf. Castillo would last almost 1.5 years before getting fired. In this week's newsletter, I'll take you through how this signing ever happened, what people thought about the hiring, the Dream Team, Castillo’s full...

Sean McDermott is going to be a Defensive Coordinator once again, something that he hasn't done since 2016. In this week's newsletter, I'll give you a better idea of what you can expect with McDermott as the DC while I dive through his past defenses and coaching career. Before I talk about McDermott for a thousand words, we need to acknowledge the stacked AFC East division featuring: Mac Jones without Matt Patricia & his pencil that he couldn't even use with his laminated call sheet Aaron...

In this newsletter, I'll cover why the Miami Dolphins have all of the pieces to be a top Defense in the NFL in 2023. Vic Fangio Comes to Town After taking a year off football, Fangio was one of the most sought after coordinators in recent memory when he decided to return.

"Well I'm the best corner in the game, when you try me with a sorry receiver like Crabtree, that's the result you're going to get". ... A few more words followed before ending his interview with "LOB!". Seconds after making the biggest play of his career, with emotions still running high Richard Sherman would break the internet with this post-game interview. This was the Legion of Boom in its prime. Never-ending trash talk, with a high-level play on the field. Who Is the Legion of Boom? The...

Darrelle Revis was a 4x First Team All-Pro, 7x Pro Bowler, and a Super Bowl champion. But guess what? He was even better off the field, and I'll explain exactly how he did it. Revis earned over $130 million throughout his career. I know what you're thinking... "He was a great player of course he got paid!"
