I just read this myself…my initial reaction to McDaniels was wonderment, as defense seems the top priority. However, that doesn’t mean the new HC needs to be a D-man. This is the first time I’ve heard Dom Capers’ name in quite a while, and that is a man who knows what he’s doing.

McDaniels + Cutler = frightening times for NFL defenses
Capers + Denver D = instant credibility, an identity and then hopefully some talent to follow

I’ve had the blinders on, been thinking it was Spagnuolo or bust, but I like the sound of McDaniels/Capers…

If that person is one of these young “up and comers” they would need to surround themselves with solid, experienced coordinators. Dom Capors is certainly that, having alot of success as a DC.

I could definitely be a fan of this move if Bowlen goes that way. Capers is solid and McDaniels is a long-term solution that would work well for the organization.

If we can’t get Cowher, then I rather they go with a defensive minded coach, either Spags, Fraizer, or Schwartz, all of them run a 4-3 so there wouldn’t be as drastic an overhaul versus Capers or Crennel, who will only run a 3-4.

I mentioned Capers name to a friend of mine a while ago. Glad to see people haven’t forgotten what a sound defensive mind he is. Just don’t ask him to draft a franchise QB, and you’ll be cool.
