Gus Bradley isn't a good DC imo.

Hard to debate that his unit with the Seahawks from 2009-2012 was one of the best, albeit, he had the talent and as DC in college under Bradley’s guidance North Dakota State’s defense led the Great West Football Conference in scoring defense (13.7 ppg), pass defense (150.3 ypg), total defense (272.4 ypg) and turnover margin (+1.00) in 2005.

Yet, Seattle's defense has been just as strong without him. His defenses in Jacksonville have been consistently bad. And Seattle fans complained about him all the time when he was their DC.

And you could have the same debate about Spagnuolo who was let go in New Orleans, but that was more scheme and Payton wanting his own guy once he was back, but as bad as Spagnuolo was a Head Coach, IMO, he's a very good DC and IMO, Bradley would be as well, however, the way things are going, we will soon find out.

I get that feeling about a coach as well, Mike Smith for example, I had a feeling he would fail in Tampa and so far he has.

I disagree. Spagnuolo isn't a good DC. He hasn't done a good job with any team since he's left the Rams.
