Interesting article and I actually agree they need to try something new, although I am not sure there should be too much zone defense played with our returning starters at CB. I actually think the biggest issue with our defense under Collins has been the blitz packages. It seems like the blitz packages we employ are simplistic and not very well disguised, allowing opposing offenses to wreak havoc on our secondary in one-on-one situations.
The most sobering part of the article for me was the following:

I really like our starters, but the depth is scary (in a bad way). Thoughts?It will be important for the duo to remain healthy because there is not a lot of experienced depth behind them. Sophomore Vince Ewing emerged from spring ball as Perkins` backup. Ewing wasn`t on the field for a single defensive snap in 2009.
Arthur Jaffee is the second-team free safety going into fall camp. Jaffee has bounced between running back and cornerback previously in his career.
