Really? I'm dancing in the streets that the Whiners have him now.
2015:
Cards defense was 7th in points allowed, 5 in yards allowed
2016:
14th points, 2nd in yards
2017:
19th points, 6th in yards

while trending downward in points, he had a top 6 defense is yards allowed every year as DC.

There's a lot that factors into PA, like the horrendous special teams play of Amos, so I think he did a pretty good job.

You would think they would want to bring in someone older and more experienced to pair with Ryans who is 36 and only has 3 years of coaching experience.

sure. But don't get the point.

Most successful DC's have pretty good players running it. Same with OC's. For example, KK's offense sure looked better with Murray out there versus Stevler.

my point is people here kill Betcher because he’s compared to Horton and Bowles but those two had much more talent to work with

Also #2 in total turnovers forced in 2015. #4 in 2016. Then went to bottom 10 in 2017.
