I am hopeful that Okoye starts performing on the field soon. It would be a shame to finally write him off as a bust, only to see him become a force for some other team. The DT position has been discussed at great lengths in terms of the amount of time it takes to become proficient and at what age a DT is in their prime.
Just read a Sporting News article talking about the top NFL Coaches and Kubiak was #24. Outranked by Pete Carrol and Jack Del Rio. I'm not sure if I agree with that grade or not. I want to see how this defense pans out this season. How many missed tackles, runs of greater than 20 yards, pass plays greater than 40 yards, how many sacks by the DL and how many turnovers they can generate. I am not ready to jettison Kubiak, but I might be looking for a new Defensive Coordinator if they don't make any gains from last year.
