However over the last few years the tendency for the Falcons has been towards keeping things simple. This is definitely a place where the GM and the coordinators have not been on the same page.

There is some reason for hope that the new coordinators are ready to step up to the modern game of football. The most obvious is that TD seems to have already embraced the preferred personnel packages of Mike Nolan which seem more in tune with the challenge of defensing the Saints.

I agree TD talking about that 3 CB one safety set sounds right for the times. Ensures at least 4 guys willbe rushing the passer and depending on the offense's formation personnel and the down and distance on the field we could see as many as 6 rushing.
