tazinib1 Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 (edited) per rotoworld: Raiders named Chuck Bresnahan as defensive coordinator.Bresnahan, 50, was initially tabbed as a "defensive assistant," but the oddball Raiders waited until now to announce him as coordinator. Bresnahan was also a defensive coordinator in Cincinnati in the mid-2000s, overseeing units that ranked 28th, 30th, and 25th in total defense before he was fired in 2007. He was out of football in 2008 and spent the last two years in the UFL. We're having a hard time getting excited about him. Counting down until Kyle comes in here to defend this hire. 3... 2... 1...

buddahj Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Seems like a typical Raider hire to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpholmes Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Shoulda been Mike Waufle... That been said, when he was the Raiders defensive coordinator during their last Superbowl run the defense was fairly stout and led the league with least points allowed per game, least rushing yards per attempt and fewest rushing yards allowed per game. If the Raiders pass defense is good now and our problem is stopping the run, Bresnahan should help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
