Former Ravens coach Brian Billick raves how Derrick Brooks is the perfect linebacker for the Tampa-2 defense.

Joe is not much of a fan of Brian Billick. This guy, like Chucky, was supposed to be an offensive genius (and Billick will gladly tell you as much) with a gift for developing quarterbacks.

How many stiffs did Billick trot in and out of Balitmore year after year and they were no better than some drunk sitting at the end of the bar on NFL Sundays on the patio at Fergs?

But in an NFL Network video (damnit Goodell, let us embed these videos) Billick does a really nice job in explaining what exactly the Tampa-2 defense is and why it’s so effective.
