I'f I'm RW there's no way I pay Bates 1 million plus to be my DC. We just hired a HC who's expertise is in defense. Jauron should have final call on all defensive decisions. I would rather have a younger,up and comer working with Jauron. A guy with Bates years of experience is bound to have strong ideas of his own which may not mesh with Jaurons. Unless Jauron and Bates had a strong,previous working relationship,like say Cowher and Lebeau,I just don't see it working.

Of course, because Jauron fielded such a dominating defense in Jacksonville. Bates has proven himself on the Dolphins and Packers. Jauron...less impressive.

Jaurons defensive coaching for the Jags is what got him the Chicago HC job. As I remember,they were pretty strong on D. I know Bates is a competent DC,but I don't know that he's fielded any truly dominating defenses.You people are making Bates sound like he's the second coming of Vince Lombardi.

I thought Marv didn't hire Sherman because Sherman wanted to run the offense and ne HC. On NFL network Marv said Jauron has the same idea as him for being a head coach to hire good coordinator. Becaue a HC's job is to manger the team no run a Offense or Def.

The fact that Jacksonville got into the playoffs is what got Jauron the Chicago gig. His defense ranked somewhere in the middle (like 13th, 15th, and one I can't remember).

That's all we've had is young up and comers. The problem is that they've all down and went.

The proper place for a younger coach,on this team, is as a coordinator under an experienced HC. Our recent problem has been inexperienced HC's. What if Bates and Jauron just aren't always on the same page? Then what? You have 2 55+ coaches,set in their ways, with at least 40 years of coaching experience pulling the D in different directions. Unless Jauron and Bates met and really hit it off and were completely on the same page,I would rather take the younger coach.Jauron is a very competent defensive coach,let the DC defer to him. If the interview went that well,money wouldn't be the issue to Bates and he'd already be here.
