Thinking about this some more, would a good DC even want to come here knowing this could be one and done? Glenn is already on a hot seat. We will probably have slim pickings after all good candidates go elsewhere. Does Glenn even have connections to bring in someone good? And we need more than just a DC. The defense was so bad relative to explication, we need most of the new staff. I sure hope LB coach is not coming back for example. And even on offense, QB coach is a joke. Does Glenn have the pull to bring someone good? If Woody bothers to think about these things, there is only one right answer: fire Glenn now. But as you know thinking is overrated.
This is the crux of the issue, who the hell is Glenn getting to come here when it seems very likely the entire regime is out after next year. Going into a year with Glenn and all the uncertainty regarding his future will make it extremely difficult to bring coaches and players here, not to mention the desperation will lead to desperate measures in the draft and FA to try and save his ass.
In Detroit Campbell couldn't get anyone, he promoted Ben Johnson who turned out to be a star. Plus it looks like Campbell could call the plays himself. Glenn can do that too, but again, he was not that good as a DC in Detroit. 1 out of 4 years was good. And even in that one year they lost in the 1st round because of defense - gave up 45 to the Commanders. I have my doubts whether the current interim DC is like Ben Johnson on defense. And even offense needs turnover too. It's just a mess, and I think we are fucked for 2026 to be honest if we keep Glenn.
