Monte Kiffin

But I'm not going to name names, but someone told me a story who was in college at Tennessee at the time that his buddy was so mad.

So this bobblehead, uh, they came out with this one and a Monte Kiffin one at the same time.

So I don't think,

I don't think he even sets or whatnot, but, uh, they did, they did sell them at the same time.

Javante Williams had his first 100-yard rushing game.

That's not something that generally happens against Monty Kiffin.

They're taking a lot of heat in Philly for how bad they played on defense, and they're asking questions about whether that team has already quit on that side of the ball.

But I think that this is who they need to be.

Sometimes they'll follow up that next year and they're not quite as good defensively.

you know marvin lewis was the defensive coordinator for the 2000 baltimore ravens he was a defensive coordinator for another year and they weren't as good in 2001. you know monty kiffin was the dc in tampa when they won the super bowl he was i think he was there for another five or six years and They had decent defenses, but it was never as good as that 2002 unit was.

So even if you have Brian Flores back next year, there's no guarantee that this defense is going to be as strong.

And so I think Nolan Teasley just has to look at this situation and regardless of who's back on the coaching staff, as this is an opportunity that we might not see again.

You are extremely correct to call it a paradigm shift.

You're extremely correct, I think, to say things like Buddy Ryan in the 46, to say things like, you know, I thought, my head goes to Monty Kiffin in Tampa too, where it is... what you are doing in terms of your identity is now going to become a lexicon part of every single defense, right? From a double mug, seven up, eight up front, where everybody's on the line of scrimmage, and then we have just a second level of a few defensive backs.

That is going to be an integral part of every single defense moving forward for the rest of time.

We have not invented something, but we have introduced something that has become so seminal, it's become so integral, that now that we know defense is moving forward that don't have this in their bag, right? So it's a total paradigm shift.

Yeah, Lou Holtz.

Monty Kiffin.

Monty Kiffin.

Bo Rain, Lou Holtz, and Earl Edwards.

Monty Kiffin was the head coach at NC State?

Yeah, for two years.

He went 16 and 17, back in 1980 and 82.

He was a defensive coordinator for another year and they weren't as good in 2001.

You know, Monty Kiffin was the DC in Tampa when they won the Super Bowl.

He was, I think he was there for another five or six years.

And They had decent defenses, but it was never as good as that 2002 unit was.

It's going to be very difficult to replicate what this defense is doing this year.

You've got to pounce on this opportunity now.

This is classic Manny ignoring a super obvious example this year to talk about Monty Kiffin like 20 years ago.

Super obvious thing this year is the Houston Texans.
