Pain D-R-C

[Fonz the Boss]

^^^ well then lets make it "Da Flying Fiddies"

Anything with fiddies in it doesn't sound very intimidating

How bout we bring back the house of pain and our LB's can be the pain gang.

I'd prefer we start winning consistently and become a dominant defense before coming up with a catchy nickname - even it's just for the LB corp. This defense has a way of embarassing itself as soon as you think it's turned the corner.

Not even sure Diles will be around long enough to build a nickname around.

DeMeco's an RFA without a new CBA next year, but he sorta needs a new contract at some point too.

As for nicknames, I'm not going to be too picky though. Just need something that sticks and helps the average NFL fan better identify with this franchise.

Yeah, that thought came to me too. I'm pretty high on drafting Sean Weatherspoon, but after last week, Diles might have justified using the 1st round draft pick on another position.

I've come up with a new idea. Maybe I'll leave out their initials and just call the LBs in our 4-3 defense "Three Dogs Fight" on the other hand, Mike Vick might have made that a bad idea.

If we aren't using next year's #1 on the defensive secondary, I may start lobbing hand grenades at Reliant.
