I don't know why Talley isn't in coaching.
I have a feeling Bruce would have been another Mario Williams if he didn't have Talley around. Talley was the one to kick him in the butt when he needed it.
If nothing else, I'd love for him to take Mario and Kyle Williams in a room and have a chat with them...
"Here's the deal... you have the tools to be elite...not to be paid elite, or fantasy-sack-stat-elite, but actually BE elite...HOF elite. But what you need is someone to kick you in the ass at times. That's where this guy comes in...he's going to be the role I played with Bruce....he'll tell you where to be, he'll tell you when you're slacking off...and you'll need to listen to him".
Something like that.

You're right I was looking at stats by position and Mario ranked higher among DEs but yes the definition is blurred these days. In terms of ecstatic I can't say I'm ready to give Mario a bust in Canton on his play this year but now that he appears healthy the defense on the whole is playing a whole lot better.

He does? So he's not a doctor but a mind reader? He's free to state an opinion, but that's all it is. Talley isn't out there at practice, or in the locker room, or even on the field for games. His guesses are more educated sure, but that doesn't mean they are 100% right either.
As for Talley coaching, no thanks. Same goes for Thurman, Kelly, Reed, and Smerlas. Great ambassadors but no interest in them as coaches.
COMING SOON...

Breaking news from the Dow.
Price of fools gold skyrockets amid rumors that Mario Williams is now the real deal (finally).
Whoops, looks like MW guilty of a dumb penalty to negate Gilmore's TD return.
Nope it wasnt Mario is was Moore

Wow. He beat Barry Richardson, or was it Wayne Hunter on a play that Carrington moved the QB from the pocket. Find a DE in the league that HASN'T beaten Barry Richardson at least once a game.
I'll start carving his Canton bust.
When you guys keep bumping this thread, you're giving Coastal's original point validity.
Collecting stats against weak competition IS fool's gold.
