Golden was an NFL position coach following his dismal performance as HC at Miami and I thought we were going to see a rerun of the BVG disaster. Didn't turn out that way. It's not a science, so hopefully this works out. One thing, if Mickens stays as a co-DC, the defense will be led by 2 highly regarded DB coaches.
