Did they see KC's defense last year?

Cunningham to run Lions' defense

ALLEN PARK, Mich. -- New Detroit Lions coach Jim Schwartz made his first major staff hire Wednesday, bringing in veteran assistant Gunther Cunningham as defensive coordinator.

The two previously worked together as assistants on Jeff Fisher's staff in Tennessee. Schwartz was defensive coordinator under Fisher this past season, when the Titans posted an NFL-best 13-3 record with a defense that ranked second in points allowed.

Cunningham, a 40-year coaching veteran on the college and pro levels, was Kansas City's head coach from 1999-2000 and the Chiefs' defensive coordinator in 1995-98 and from 2004 through this past season.

He'll set about trying to fix one of the league's worst defenses, one of the big reasons Detroit didn't win a game last season.

Terms of his contract were not disclosed.

Cunningham also has served as an assistant with the Raiders, Chargers and Colts in the NFL and California, Stanford, Arkansas and Oregon in the college ranks.

They'll still be better than last year. And with Schwartz at the head of things, I'm not that worried.

The thing that i worry with about Schwartz was the talent he was dealing with in Tennessee. Haynesworth may be a hall of famer some day...same thing Dungy and Herm ran into...no first ballott HOFers on the Jets or Colts. Where as the Buccs may have 3 HOFers on the same field at any one time (Lynch, Brooks, Rice, Barber, Kelly)
