A local Cleveland radio station, 93.2 The Fan, had Hall of Fame quarterback Kurt Warner on the show as a guest. Needless to say, he did not have kind words to say about the defense the Cleveland Browns currently field under defensive coordinator Joe Woods.
Outlined by the station’s Assistant Brand Manager Keith Britton, Warner gave the following thoughts:
“When I watch them on tape, this looks like a very easy defense to attack. A lot of times they’ll play base defensive schemes…Nothing wrong with the system, structure…but I know exactly how I would attack, exploit them”
It becomes harder to defend Woods and quite hard to disagree with Warner’s comments. Good players from a year ago are regressing under Woods, and this defense remains at the bottom of the barrel in DVOA. With Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens up next, it may be time to buckle up and count the days Woods has left in his chair.
