Martindale style defenses are fun when they work... But Giants and Ravens fans bitched about him being "obsessed with bringing everybody."
He had three great years with BAL, but he also had a lot of great players. So how much was scheme vs personnel?
Final year with BAL they were last vs the pass, I think. With the Giants, they were like bottom 5 vs the run and only middle of the pack vs the pass, so 25th/27th in total defense each year.
Bitching about Bradley's easy catches and cushions could easily turn into bitching about guys getting to the edge while the entire defense is in the backfield. Or going balls out to the QB and getting murdered in the run game.
