Assume Dom is going to be gone next season, who do we replace him with. Is there somebody internal that might make a good DC? Is Winston Moss a possibility? Would it make sense to can Dom now and give somebody on the staff a chance to prove them selves for 1/2 a season?

Or do we want to look else where? Do we want to stay 3-4 or with our personel would we be better off switching back to 4-3 again.

Would you want somebody who has been a DC or maybe even a HC before, or bring in somebody young either from another team or from the college ranks.

I'm a Dom defender, he can only work with what he has. Others need to be gone before him and I realize this topic is replacing Dom. So I don't think he will be gone, unless the new GM or HC wants his own guy.

Excellent question. I have no idea who would be a ~~good~~ great choice as DC.

In the past I thought Winston might be "the guy" for some team but after 10+ years he is still in GB and it makes me wonder why.

The middle of the filed out 10-15 yards being a big hole for 3rd down conversions is another Scheme issue that he hasn't been able to address in many years.

I have liked Joe Whitt Jr, but if Dom Capers goes, I want all new faces. I do believe a new defensive staff could get us in the top 10 in points scored against with the current roster, healthy roster.

If Dom was shit canned mid-season, they'd have to go with Winston Moss, since he was designated as "assistant head coach," back when teams were still interested in him.

I don't know non-Coordinators well enough to say names.

But if fired (or in college) I would want to talk with Lovie Smith, Chuck Pagano and Marvin Lewis. Not saying hire them, but talk to.
