Bill Sheridan Says He Made Giants Defense 'Too Simple'

PrintBill Sheridan could not escape questions about his failed 2009 stint as New York Giants defensive coordinator on Tuesday when he was introduced for that same job by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Sheridan used the injury crutch and said he thought he simplified the defense too much.
"In an attempt to help some of the new players we were bringing in and working with, and some of them were free agents that were on the street and we ended up having to bring them in and they played in our lineup at the end of the year, I think we tried to be very simple for them," Sheridan told the Tampa Bay Times. "But in hindsight, I think we may have been guilty of maybe being too simple. Because again, it's great for your own players that you present to them a simplistic scheme that they can execute on Sunday, but you're also not posing enough issues for the teams you play against. You're not giving them enough problems."
That Giants defense surrendered more than 40 points an embarrassing five times, and placed 30th in the NFL while giving up 427 points. Are you buying Sheridan's reasoning? In 2008 the Giants defense was fifth in the league overall and gave up only 294 points.
I can't fully buy into Sheridan's argument. Part of the problem was also that Sheridan seemed incapable of providing leadership and of really getting the message across so all the defensive players understood what he wanted. I can remember times that year where Sheridan defended himself by arguing that he knew what calls to make.
Motivating a defense and getting everyone to understand what you want is also part of the job, though. For me, it seemed like that is where Sheridan did not measure up.
Will that change in Tampa Bay three seasons removed from the Giants debacle? It seems like Sheridan believes his job in Tampa Bay will be to simply run head coach Greg Schiano's defense, not orchestrate his own.
Maybe Sheridan can do that. Or, maybe Sheridan's hiring is an example of the Buccaneers having a hard time hiring top-notch assistants for Schiano, the former Rutgers coach who was a shocking selection for the Tampa Bay head coaching job.
I guess only time will tell.

Well we all refer to 'simplify'..What they did was modify their existing..
Defensive schemes…more man coverages…rushing four vs. three and throttled up some blitzes..That plus getting Blackburn and a few players back to ‘almost’ full strength…Also one extraordinary things we learned is the fact that the secondary hosted meetings at their homes to discuss things and develop better communication amongst each other..that was key as well..

Let's be real, the players quit on Sheridan
Someone please explain how this guy got another DC job just two years after a monumental fail as our DC…. Man I feel bad for Buc’s fans already.

BB didnt' exactly fail in Cleveland
Dont’ forget he took them to the playoffs and beat Parcells in the playoffs, the next year Modell tells the world he is moving the Browns to Baltimore and they went into the tank.
On top of that, if you BB was a great DC that nobody was sure about as a HC, kindo of like Spags. Sheridan was the LB’s coach, got promoted failded went back to LB’s coach on a bad team and a year later is getting a second shot as a DC not good.

Things just got so bad that nothing was working and we had injuries.
The entire situation was so bad that it took the air out of the defense.

I already wrote a comment to them about that
Said, I am feel so sorry for you guys… This dude hasnt changed, he is just a pawn… Bucs are playing it smart… They got Butch Davis going to take over in 2 years anyways… They are just rolling the dice on B.S. right now.. If he fails, at least the team is in tact and all the players are in place

All goof ball had to do was
Keep spags D and make maybe small changes, but no he was changing things and the players said themselves they were free lancing and doing what they wanted. The guy is not good the reason is as stated he took over one of the best D’s in the league and destroyed it.

There were a lot of injuries that year on D. But yes he still could have made it work using Spags system. He went all Hanldey on us.

Eh
It might be unpopular to say, but who really knows what happened internally? Sheridan did face a ton of injuries, and while I would’ve also let him go after 2009, I am not convinced he was ultimately the cause of the problem.
Fewell gets mentioned – but look at how much different his defenses ranked in his first and second years, what, from No. 7 in the NFL to No. 28 or something? Injuries are killers, and Sheridan had more than his share decimating entire positions.
I’m curious how Sheridan will do in Tampa – they have a ton of talent on the D-Line, less in the back 7.
The Defense Flat out Quit on him.
That my friend is the Definition of bad
Why is Tom Quinn still here? I loves me some Coach Clawfin. NY Football Giants 2012 Super Bowl FN Champions!!!!!!
Yes
that would be, and that’s why I would’ve also fired him.
But who knows why some things happen in certain situations…he got into that squabble with Osi, injuries decimated the defense, and it spiraled.
He may actually be a good coach in a different situation. Like I said, I’m not defending him, but I am less apt to flat-out damn the guy. He may do well in Tampa—he is inheriting some very good players—but even if he does, there’s no way to prove cause and effect.
Even success can be luck.

Coughlin
was also on the line. Sheridan had to be the fall guy.
Handley was the head coach, it’s a lot more disruptive to fire the HC than an assistant.

Coughlin was safe that year
If he had confidence in Sheridan and wanted to keep him he could have, he was only 2 years removed from his SB win. The thing is it was made clear to Tom that next year he better start winning again or else, and Tom decided he needed a real DC

"Win or Else"
Exactly what I’m saying as to why Sheridan had to go. Coughlin was on the hot seat, John Mara was pissed, and there had to be somebody to pay the piper.
by Pink Flamingo on Feb 22, 2012 5:44 PM EST up reply actions
So Coughlin faced with a Win or Else season
Looked at Sheridan and decided he couldn’t win with him and let him go. Scape goating would have been Coughlin firing Sheridan so he doens’t get fired. We both know TC was safe for the 2010 season, so weather he fired Sheridan or not had nothing to do with Giant managment firing him. Coughlin lost his faith in Sheridan just like Giant players and fans.
Dude wha’t next are you going to start defending Tim Lewis becuase he was sorry DC too only nobody was dumb enough to give him another job as a DC

But if he can't do nothing with a defense coming off a super bowl,
what do you think he can do with the Bucs? I don’t think he will accomplish anything.
I know we're in the minority but I agree with you
While it looked to all the world that he was awful we as fans on the outside don’t know what really happened.

Sheridans problem wasn't injuries
It’s that he knows good defense from bad defense like he knows his (substitute your favorite word for butt) from a hole in the ground

Fewell
How do you explain how his defense collapsed this year, then got better as soon as Osi and Boley returned?
He went from being a head coaching candidate….to “Radio”…to a star coordinator again.
I have no way to know whether Sheridan is any good or not, but injuries are a huge factor, and he got shelled with them. The players quitting on him, well, that’s potentially a more damning problem, but that would fall on Coughlin as well.
by Pink Flamingo on Feb 22, 2012 5:23 PM EST up reply actions
Don't forget
Fewell went from coaching candidated to Radio to star coordinator, in the same season.
Sheridan, never made any adjustments, and the injury excuse is out the window becasue half our D was hurt before this year even started and at the end Fewell had them balling and believing in them self.
But the biggest problem was the players didn’t belive in a word Sheridan was preaching, Osi walked out on him in training camp and it only got worse from there.

Fewell
got players back from injury. We were healthier at the end than we were all season.
Fewell became a “bad” coach when he lost Terrell Thomas, Jon Goff…then Osi, Boley, dealing with an injured Tuck…and on and on.
He became a “good” coach when he got healthy players back and the rookies began to mature into dependable players…and guys like Rolle finally decided to buy into the system.
by Pink Flamingo on Feb 22, 2012 5:32 PM EST up reply actions
So you chalk up the D coming together becasue Osi came back and Tuck overcame injury
Didn’t we have a sustitute math teacher as our Middle LB we also had a 6th round rookie manning the other LB slot. We didn’t have a third corner so we played Rolle out of position all year. All I am saying is the players never quit on Fewell. They quit on Sheridan. That was is the biggest check mark on Sheridan’s jacket and that’s why Giant Management fired him after only one year.
Giant’s organization has always preached patience with both players and Coaches the fact they let Sheridan go so fast should have told you somthing.
Respect all fear none.
by Late for Dinner on Feb 22, 2012 5:42 PM EST up reply actions
Primarily
Yes, I do think health was the biggest factor. Osi returning was a game changer to the pass rush. Boley’s absence was really felt when he was out, and equally felt when he came back. Tuck deciding to play through pain was huge.
And yeah, Blackburn was healthy…Jacquian Williams was healthy and improving as the season went on. Amukamara came off PUP and contributed. We got much, much healthier than we had been all year.
I hear you about the Giants’ letting Sheridan go after 1 year, but I really believe it was based more on other factors—even personality issues with players like Osi—than it was based on raw coaching ability, which he may or may not have.
Let’s see how he does in Tampa is all I’m saying. I’m not defending him, but just not so quick to condemn the guy when it may have been more about the situation…
by Pink Flamingo on Feb 22, 2012 5:51 PM EST up reply actions
It wasnt that he was a bad coordinator
its just that he was a bad coordinator… There are people that are good with math… and there are people that understand the theory behind the math.. B.S. was great at telling people what to do and how to do it… B.S. was awful at understanding the game, game planning and adjustments… he couldnt see two moves ahead. That is why T.C. was forced to let him go. B.S. didnt understand the game.. and the comments he is making now, just confirm he still doesnt know.
Regardless of what happens, No playoffs, playoffs, no superblow, superblow.... The 2011/2012 is one of my favorite Giants Teams of all time.
Oh not again
We have been over this time and time again with Blue Gates. Perry simplified the scheme and instead of running that soft umbrella cover 2 the Gints started playing more aggressive man to man with an attacking blitzing style of D. The 3 man rush became non existent after the Washington game. In the Jet’s game we saw the new Scheme and never stopped using it till we won the Mother F##kin Super Bowl. The Players are on record saying the scheme changed as well as Perry himself.

Mike Sullivan
It’s interesting, because as we were discussing on another thread, it’s very possible Mike Sullivan could have put in a good word for Sheridan when he took the OC job.
That’s why I’m saying, we don’t really know what went on. My guess is if Sullivan told Schiano that Sheridan sucked as a coach, he wouldn’t have been hired.
And Sheridan hasn’t been out of a job – coaches see the film and they apparently like what they see.
Go figure.
Or
Could be that Greg Schiano a college HC with no majore accomplishments is in way over his head.
I really don’t get the Buc’s management
They fire Tony Dungy because he makes the playoffs but doesn’t win enough.
They fire Chucky because he won but didn’t make the playoffs enough.
They give up on their young HC because after going 10-6 he stumbled
And they hire a College coach with a mediocore track record and expect him to be better than the 3 guys they fired before him.

That May All Be True
But I’d let it play out before I conclude anything.
There have been highly-touted “can’t fail” coaches who did fail in certain situations (remember Steve Spurrier in Washington, Jimmy Johnson in Miami, George Seifert in Carolina, you name it), and little-regarded guys who have succeeded.
I mean, Tom Coughlin himself was an NFL position coach, and then a somewhat successful college coach before getting the Jacksonville gig…sounds a lot like Schiano’s resume.

This is what his defense will look like.
This is not the 2007 team.
2011 NYG will have their own legacy.
To be fair
He lost KP & Antonio Pierce. Justin Tuck was banged up and not very productive (6 sacks). Osi was coming off knee surgery and was not himself (7 sacks). Danny Clark was his SAM. CC Brown and Aaron Rouse were his starting safeties by midseason. So without the great pass rush we usually have, questionable LBs, & horrible safeties it’s no wonder we gave up a lot of points. That being said, he did lose the players and needed to go.

You mean this guy?
what a waste of a 1st round pick, i mean we already had Osi & Tuck. why go DE? WE NEED LB’ZZZ!!!
Since everyone and their grandma have a mock draft, i guess i'll do one too
1st Rd: Micheal Floyd, WR Norte Dame, 2nd Rd: Dontari Poe, DT Memphis, 3rd Rd: LaMicheal James, RB Oregon, 4th Rd: Keenan Robinson, LB Texas, 5th Rd: Ryan Miller, G Colorado, 6th Rd: Matt Reynolds, T BYU, 7th Rd: Drake Dunsmore, TE Northwestern
Noted who what and who Sherdian didn't have
But…. I got to counter that with his defense was not just bad it was the 2nd worst defense in NY Giant history, just saying.

I cant recall a less promising series of hires than Tampa's
College coaches almost never work out. Plus he’s surrounding himself with guys with poor track records just to get some NFL experience on the staff.
Some idiot talking head said at the end of the year there would be a lot of college coaches looked at because of Jim Harbaugh. R U effin kidding?
Harbaugh was a quality NFL QB known for his toughness and leadership. He walked in to a young team with instant respect. Most college coaches come in with a background of being real good at bullshitting teenagers, then bullying and threatening them into performing.
Blue is the color of melancholy and honesty
Green is the color of inexperience, envy and nausea.
I thought the exact same thing when he took over and gave an interview
in it he talked about how he needed to simplify things, and I immediately got worried.
Sheridan said the defense won’t be as “multiple,” meaning the looks and fronts will be limited, and that the defense will be more “streamlined.” That’s because, he said, there aren’t enough practice reps to work on different aspects of the defense.
Win another SB...CHECK!

I'm not saying he did a good job
and his team didn’t seem to like him, but you can’t compare 2008 to 2009. Their two best defensive players in 2008 were Tuck and Robbins, and they both had significantly worse seasons in 2009 due to injuries. And the starting safeties for part of the year were CC Brown and Aaron Rouse.
you have to wonder
Why do some guys get more chances then others? Sheridan was not good, yet gets another job. BB wasn’t that good in Cleveland, yet gets another head coaching job.
Some guys never get that other chance for some reason. Gilbride was the Chargers coach and they were horrible. This was during the Leaf era, so he had a bad team to coach. KG has never gotten that 2nd head coaching chance.
BB is not a good example
He had 2 SBs, with us, as a D coirdinator and went to a team that skipped town. He was always considered a great coach.

Sheridan's defense gave up 5000 yards and 427 points
This year, Fewell gave up 6000 yards, but 27 less points. That says a lot to me.
Fewell isn’t the greatest defensive coordinator in world, but he’s miles and miles ahead of Sheridan.
Sheridan was given a phenomenal defense, and upgrades at DT and LB. And this clown managed to turn all of that into one of, if not the worst, defenses in the history of the Giants. As others have said, his defense quit in the final two games of the year which says a lot about him.
This tool is better served running a hot dog stand than being on any professional coaching staff.
There is no hope.... there is no future....there is only BLUE WALLS.
The 2012 Mets: Fortune cookie says come back in 2015
disagree on the phenomenal defense part
did u read the thread above….he had freaking CC Brown, Aaron Rouse & Michael Johnson
Tuck was injured from game 2 or something.
2009 defense was ridiculous.
he was bad but we shud cut some slack for the players he had.
So
one theory is that he was the scapegoat for the bad 2009 season. Someone had to get fired and it had to be him.
This is not the 2007 team.

Yes he had bad boy Leroy Brown, Rouse and MJ...
But we had a slew of players hurt or on IR this past year and still got the job done..Sheridan is not a good coach..He should get a job walking dogs..

Yea you know me
Win Ugly.
-Eli Manning for MVP
Comparisons to Fewell and Spags do not work
both had bad stretches but wound up with a great SB winning defense at the end. Sheridan’s unit started out fine but just got worst as the season wore on. Opponents easily read his simplistic schemes and players revolted and quit playing for him. The exception was Osi who walked out pre-season, a harbinger of things to follow. A one word description, duh!
yeah after reading all these other posts i remember how many injuries, sh*tty players, and whiney players (osi) sheridan had to deal with
Tuck got hurt because of that fat douchebag flozell adams (who got cut and joined the steelers then got cut there, karmas a bitch Flo). Still though it was inexcusable how the defense quit on him and that meant he had to go.

Bucs Owner: “Get me that guy from Rutgers. Yeah thats it…get me Miano.”
GM: “You mean Schiano?”
Owner: “Whatever. We need somebody”…
GM: “We also need a strong defensive mind coordinator to whip our defense into shape…hmm…the only DC on the list right now is Tim Lewis”…
Owner: “What about that LB coach for Miami who used to coordinate things for the new york giants back when they won the SB a few years ago?”
GM: “Steve Spagnoulo is not available any longer sir”…
Owner: “No you idiot! The guy who coached under him….whatshisface…you know…the guy who took over the following year & only had his D give up 427 points”…
GM: “Billy Sheridan? Oh man how could Ive forgotton ‘bout him? Man that guy is one solid DC. I’ll give him a call right now. Hopefully he’s still available.”
Owner: “Atta boy”
