Raheem taking his craft over to San Fran, taking over for Saleh... seems to be a pretty huge downgrade

It is. I don't think he's totally inept as a DC, but he's not a defensive guru.

He's a good DC, but over his head as a HC. That's a good spot for him but Saleh made that defense look way better than it was.

I definitely think he's a solid DC... but he's a big step down from Saleh

He's not really a good DC. Rams defensive EPA/Play 2 years before him, 0.099, the 3 years with him, -.008 2 years since he left 0.010

Saleh is either robbed of his coaching opportunity, by the Jets sucking, or he's another Spags,
