Message: <blockquote data-quote="HardRightEdge" data-source="post: 710233">Thornton was a 3rd. rounder where busts are fairly common.  We don't know what Neal would do in another system.   I'll grant you Worthy; his 14% snap count with Buffalo may be as good as it gets.  As someone else noted above, the sample size is too small which says something in itself.There is little doubt that Thompson and Capers share complicity on the defensive side of the ball.  But at least the offensive side remains consistently productive.  Capers works only one side of the ball.  It is shocking that the cap hit on defense was greater than on offense last season.  So, if we assume that Thompson has contributed with less than optimal defensive picks while Capers is unable to maximize what he has, then not "fixing" both problems doesn't mean you shouldn't fix one of them.There's a long-standing mediocrity (or worse) on the defensive side of the ball.  One element of that equation should have been addressed by firing Capers.The history of end-of-game defensive collapses, or even the defense going in the tank after the missed field goal and Ripkowski fumble this last go-round, is a cultural problem that falls on the DC and not the talent.</blockquote>
