"The human body can bleed out in less than 2 minutes," River whispered, her eyes shut tight. She whimpered when a bullet clipped the rocky dune above her.

Simon pulled her closer, his own eyes squeezed shut and he was vaguely aware that he would never get used this.

"I'm sick and tired of these gorram plans o' yours Mal!" Jayne yelled above the sound of gunfire. There was a split second of silence and the merc sprang up, returning fire. The gun clicked uselessly and he dove back down behind the rocky river bank, hands already searching for another clip.

Mal grinned, his eyes wild.

"Just trust me Jayne!"

He suddenly sprang up and fired, a splash signaling that one of the bullets had found its mark.

With a grunt, the Captain sunk back down, a hand held to his shoulder. Dark red blood leaked out between his fingers, staining his coat a dark brown.

"Qing wa cao de liu mang."

"Let me see." Simon's voice was soft, his hands firm. Gently, the doctor prodded at the wound, quietly apologizing when Mal hissed.

"I'll need to get the bullet out." Simon said, starting to protest when Mal pulled him away.

"Captain-"

"Ya can fix it when we're safely onboard Serenity."

More gunfire sounded and Mal grinned again when more splashes came from behind the bank.

River uncurled, her brown eyes wide and full of awe.

"Robin Hood came to save Maid Marian and the Merry Men."

"I'm not Maid Marian!" Mal protested while he stood up.

Zoë laughed as she walked towards them, her Mare's Leg still slightly smoking.

"She ain't wrong about the saving, sir."

She frowned when she saw the blood but left it when Mal shook his head slightly.

"Shepherd Book's tyin' up the few we managed to haul out o' the river."

Jayne gaped, his eyes wide. "You're meanin' this was all part of the plan?"

"Not the gettin' shot part, no." Mal said, grunting when he moved his arm. He ignored the doc's concerned look and started the walk to the small band of bandits tied up on the opposite bank.

This was the last time Wilder talked him into patrolling the river.

Author's note

Hi y'all. So, just a small heads-up, I did almost no research for this one. I don't know if I used the prompt correctly so I'm sorry if it ain't entirely right.

[bookcub]

hello!! I was the anon who asked for queer book recs for my girlfriend :) she loves romantic sapphic stories and we're both bi girls so anything in that genre? it's totally cool if you don't but I just wanted to ask :) thanks!

OKAY SO 

CUTE SAPPHIC BOOKS!!!!

Her Royal Highness by Rachel Hawkins is the latest one I read and it’s this girl who goes to Scotland boarding school after a bad break up and her ROOMMATE is a PRINCESS and it’s enemies to allies to friends to lovers and it made me giddy to read. (bi girl narration and lesbian love interest) 

Leah on the Offbeat by Becky Albertalli follows a girl who is bi and her best friend, Simon (yes, that Simon) just got a boyfriend and now she is struggling with her feelings for her other’s friend’s newly ex girlfriend. She’s also navigating her senior year of high school and her love of drawing and drumming. (bi girl protagonist and love interest) 

Georgia Peaches and Other Forbidden Fruit by Jayne Robin Brown is about a lesbian who goes back into the closet as her dad is worried about her safety (I think) when they move to Georgia. This is fine until she meets Mary Carlson, who she makes a connection with, and might also be interested in her. I don’t remember much about this book, but it made me happy and there were lots of lines that made me giggle and I thought it handled Christianity well. (lesbian protag and love interest, if I recall correctly) 

Star-Crossed by Barbara Dee is a middle school book, with a girl who is realizing she is bi when she meets the new girl in her class and is cast as the Romeo to her Juliet. Very cute and super age appropriate. (Bi mc) 

Not Your Sidekick by CB Lee does have a cute love story at the center, but it’s also a superhero story and a government conspiracy. There’s secret identities, and bonding and accidental confessions. It’s so cute and I’m dying to read the rest, which follow the other characters after the book takes place. (bi mc) 

Bonus 

Beauty Queens by Libba Bray has many major characters, three are queer. Sousie is bisexual, Jennifer is a lesbian, and Petra is trans. It’s more focused on friendship and overthrowing the patriarchy, but the rep is quite lovely and it’s one of my favorite book. It’s Lord of the Flies with girls and modern day and happier.

Red, White, and Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston is a mlm romcom book and there is my favorite bi crisis is in this book and the First Son of the US falls in love with the Prince of England and it’s enemies to forced friends to best friends to friends with benefits to madly in love. (bi guy mc and gay love interest) 

On my tbr: 

The Princess and the Faingirl  by Ashley Poston 

Style by Chelsea M. Cameron 

Girls Made of Snow and Glass by Melissa Bashardoust

*copied directly from my FANDOM CHARACTERS page

updated August 10, 2022

My blog is primarily for my characters in the New Ashton Chronicles, an urban fantasy series, but there are characters I sometimes play from fandoms when the mood strikes me. Or on Fandom Fridays. For information on Fandom Friday, please read THIS.

Let's begin:

These characters are NOT my creations (except where marked as OC) and I only play them rarely & highly selectively. 

They are available by request (via starter calls, memes, or asking OOC). 

It is important to me that we’ve RPed before with my original characters because it’s been my experience that once canon characters enter the scene, my other characters get overlooked. I’m not allowing that to happen. You'll get nothing if you follow me and expect to RP only with the fandom characters while ignoring my OCs. 

I prefer some discussion beforehand before we ship anything, regardless of canon.

I use no icons for these characters and I prefer it that way. 

Crossover & AU friendly!

It is safe to assume that I play all characters here as canon divergent unless marked otherwise. 

Buffy the Vampire Slayer & Angel

Dennis Pearson aka Phantom Dennis - ghost version & revived (alive)

→ no FC as he was invisible on the show, only in a handful of episodes, and only shown as alive in one brief flashback scene but as I play him he can manifest to be visible for short periods of time. He’s of average height and build, with brown, curly hair and brown eyes. 

→ When I play him as revived, Dennis has the ability to see & communicate with spirits & ghosts, from having been one for so long. 

Robin Wood - closed to shipping with other Faith Lehane RPers as I’m exclusive with @murderousbitch​

Angel/Angelus - closed to shipping with other Faith Lehane RPers as I’m exclusive with @murderousbitch​

Xander Harris - canon divergent, and/or Wishverse (vampire) version. No affiliation with the Boom comics series.

Muscle Panic

By Robin Alex McDonald

    Queer theorist Jennifer Doyle suggests that “thinking about sports is like thinking about a novel that has five dimensions. It can be hard to pin down your object. The sport text has watery boundaries: Is it the event? The competition? The broadcast? The arena, fan culture? Training? The match report?”[1] Similarly, thinking about Hazel Meyer’s Muscle Panic is like trying to pin down an immeasurable imagining, one that shape-shifts from idea to archive, from archive to installation, from installation to performance, from performance to print. Each adaptation of Muscle Panic offers new constellations of sport history ephemera, locker room curiosa, and affective objects that reveal the oft-repressed queer and feminist sensibilities of sport cultures: “Sport Dyke” locker labels, a multi-gallon thermos of Lez Hulk Sweat, net-less and bare basketball rims, photographs of women athletes whose tenacity is palpable even on cardstock, a shiny silver whistle around which countless lips have closed. Doyle claims that the athlete’s sense of self is “fluid, changeable, contingent,” but Muscle Panic expands on this to show that the material cultures that constitute the athlete’s world are fluid, too.[2] Their archives take on new shapes and new forms, depending on where and how they are being housed (a gym locker, a storage room, a hall of fame, a gallery) and what their caretaker deems meaningful.

    Past iterations of Muscle Panic crescendoed in multi-participant performances that relished the rigor of athletic rituals and the sweet idiosyncrasies of women and queer people occupying space together. In them, Meyer and her team of performers donned handmade jerseys, stretched one another’s bodies, passed basketballs back and forth (and back and forth, and back and forth) between them, inhaled the odour of their own and each others’ armpits, tied their long hair back into sport-ready ponytails, double-knotted each other’s shoelaces. Within the homosocial world of sport, in which teams are segregated by sex and the existence of queer touches, looks, and desires are actively denied, these types of interactions are mostly dismissed as teammate comradery or game-time rituals. In the constructed world of Muscle Panic’s performance, however, these interactions both educe and exceed the intimacies of sex – sweaty touches, heavy breathing, furtive eye contact, giggly asides – and thus speak aloud what Heidi Eng has called the “silences underlying and permeating discourses of normality” within the world of sport.[3]

    Named after the sociological concept of moral panic, a fear of something dangerous and threatening to “discourses of normality” as well as the status quo of the social order, Muscle Panic uses touch and sweat to terrorize the gender binary and its attendant presumption of heterosexuality on which most sports rely. Now, in a world where touching, sweating, and breathing together have become dangerous in altogether new ways, Meyer has been tasked with translating the collaborative and spontaneous spirit of performance into another, safer format. For the 2020 version of Muscle Panic, Meyer has solicited five women and/or non-binary athletes to create a collaborative print project that draws from the codes and aesthetics of instructional exercise posters. Such a poster project recalls elementary school gymnasium décor, but it also recalls the safer sex cartoons and information pamphlets created during the AIDS crisis of the 1980s by organizations like the Gay Men’s Health Crisis and the National Coalition of Gay Sexually Transmitted Disease Services, wherein communities disproportionately affected by the epidemic sought to communicate information and care using their own languages and signs.  Renowned art historian and political activist Douglas Crimp discussed these instructional comics in his 1987 essay, “How to Have Promiscuity in an Epidemic,” where he referred to community-created materials as “precisely the sort of safe sex education material that has proven to work.”[4] While there are obvious differences between teaching someone how to properly put on a condom and instructing them how to perform the perfect jump shot, there are similarities as well: a flicking motion of the wrist, the need to be gentle yet shrewd, the importance of practice and the risks that sloppiness carries. Both tasks demand focused attention on the body and are usually done in the presence of another body. And if the instructional posters of the 1980s helped gay men to have promiscuity in an epidemic, perhaps this instructional poster can teach its audiences how to create new intimacies in a pandemic by reminding us that the queer desires that exist in sport – the desire to touch, to be playful, to work together in new ways – have not gone away.

    Meyer has stated that Muscle Panic is about the need for women’s bodies, queer bodies, and sick bodies to “take up space” on the field, on the court, in the locker rooms, and in the gallery.[5] Now, in the absence of these bodies, we instead have Muscle Panic’s stuff: scaffolding that stands strong like skeletons, pompoms that caress like fingers, the pebbled texture of basketballs like our craggy skin. If, as queer affect scholar Ann Cvetkovich suggests, “objects are meaningful as expressions of desire,”[6] we might think of the objects that make up Muscle Panic as “testimon[ies] to social relations” between an imagined team of women, femmes, queers, crips, and others whose bodies and identities have been, and continue to be, marginalized within sport cultures.[7] Like that stink of sweat that cannot be evicted from a gametime jersey, these relations endure – their affects linger, their politics persist.

Hey, Hey

Summary: Sometimes the person you want isn’t the person you need. 

Paring: Dick x OC

Notes: For @royslittleharper.  We both could have sworn I posted this but I checked all my posts from when I created this document and nothing soooo If I did I’m sorry and I’m posing it again. 

Also I’m a total slut for Willow Wing

Maia/Willow is @royslittleharper​

Jennifer is mine

“Hey”

“Hey”

Dick sighed as he walked slowly into Jennifer’s room. It had been days since the death of her best friend. The death that had caused the girl in front of him to lock herself in her bedroom barely eating or doing much of anything. 

He would have come sooner, would have done anything to be there with her. To sit with her while she mourned the loss of her friend, to help any way he could. Honestly, he would have done anything to open that door to the room she had locked herself in.

Instead of doing the one thing he wanted to do, he buried himself in his work. Unable to sleep, pushing himself on the streets of Gotham. Blaming himself for her sadness as he sat outside her door after every patrol. Praying she would open the door. 

To just let him in.

Bruce had just shrugged it off telling him that he never thought Jennifer was up for this. Alfred had informed him that some people needed space when they were dealing with these sorts of things.

Three days, three days of silent pain. Then the door opened.

But the person who had opened it wasn’t Jennifer.

Covered in a white blanket that made her look like some undead creature. Dark unkempt hair falling into her thin pale face. Her once bright beautiful eyes now dark and hollow. Sunken in surrounded by dark circles.

It hurt, Dick didn’t think it would hurt this much. It was like someone had taken his beautiful girl and broken her down into a shell of nothing. All he wanted was his Jennifer back. All he wanted was to do something, anything to make that sweet happy girl come back to him.

For her pain to go away.   

“I’m going back home” Jennifer mumbled slowing turning back toward her bed, “I just…”

“I’m sorry” his words gave her pause turning to look at him. Hollow eyes seemed to look through him as if Jennifer wasn’t truly seeing him there in front of her. “I wish… I want” he stuttered trying to find the right thing to say. The right thing to help her. 

Her arms wrapped around him pulling him to her as she buried her face in his chest. Just holding him close, as if maybe, maybe if they held on to each other it would make all this darkness go away. Maybe she could fight it off.

“I’m just sorry” Dick muttered burying his head in her hair “I don’t want you to go, but I think you need it get away.” Dick finally admitted rubbing her back.

“And Dick I…” she looked up at him

“We can make it work,” he said, unable to keep it in. fears of losing her stronger than he even realized. The moment it was out though he knew it wasn’t right. She winced at his words as if they had caused her physical pain.

“It’s not fair.” Jennifer said looking away as if the sight of him was ripping her apart, “You deserve someone who is whole, someone who is happy.”

“I…” a million reasons ran through his head, she was just struggling, she would bounce back, back to that happy girl he knew so well. That girl he loved. But it wasn’t fair. It was selfish and he knew it. “I’ll always be there for you regardless of what label we are” Dick whispered kissing her on the forehead.

“Hey”

“Hey”

Speedy’s face was so close to her’s she could barely breathe. The smell of soot and grease from his arrows was so strong. There was a bit of debris smudged across his face, small speckles of dark brown mixing with his own freckles. Around them, total chaos rained. Yet for that brief moment when he had pulled her out of harm's way, Willow felt like everything had gone still.

“Can you guys just kiss and get it over with or join the fight?” Robin’s voice said over the mics. Speedy let out a laugh rolling his eyes as he arm reached for an arrow in his quiver only to find he was empty. Willow held one up for him which he took gratefully.

“We’re just friends Robin.”

Robin’s voice laughed over the coms “In that case, Willow want to get burgers after this?”

The look on Speedy’s face was priceless. So priceless in fact that Willow couldn’t help but flash him a smug smile as she leaped forward shooting two ice arrows at the one flame henchmen who was giving Beastboy a run for his money.

“Can I get a Milkshake too?”

“You can get anything you want,”

“It’s a date boy wonder.”

“Wait what?” Speedy’s voice just a pitch higher than it should be. Causing something in the back of Willow’s mind to grin with glee. As if maybe she could pretend he didn’t just like her as a friend. Maybe there was something more. Even if it was just her own imagination. 

“What Speedy? I thought you said you guys were friends?” Cyborg said speaking Willow’s own thoughts as he pummeled a henchman into a brick wall.

“I’m just surprised is all, I didn’t know you guys had a thing.”

“We didn’t, but we do now,” Willow said winking at Robin as he leaped forward taking out the flamethrower before the guy could punch Willow.

“Hey”

“Hey”

Dick’s wide smile slowly faded to match the slight scowl on Maia’s face. “What?” he asked as he sat down next to her on the roof of her apartment building. Her hands fiddling with a small trinket, two arrows crossed together.

“Roy got me this for my birthday,” she mumbled handing him the necklace. “It’s part of a matching set, it’s supposed to mean together forever.”

“That’s nice” his words guarded, knowing there was more to this story. 

“Yeah and then he proceeds to tell me he can’t hang out tonight because he has a date.”

“Outch”

“Basically.”

“Well… I know what we could do to pass the time while he’s being an idiot.” Dick said leaning forward, his hand slipping over her’s. For the first time that night Maia smiled.

“Oh?” she giggled before Dick gently kissed her, she kissed him back. It was gentle, filled with slight excitement. No hesitation only confidence, much like the boy himself. It was one of the things Maia loved about Dick. His confidence. He seemed to have this ability to push himself forward with only sheer will. A will that seemed to motivating the world around him.

Maia grunted as Dick slowly pushed himself to top of her. Her back slowly laying down only to get poked by some debris on the roof. One pesky stick, in particular, was poking her right in the rib. Dick quickly pulled away looking at her in concern.

“You ok?”

“So good” Maia smiled putting her arms around his neck pulling him back into another kiss before pulling away again, “How about we continue this in a more comfortable setting?”

“What? You don’t want to make love out here under the stars?” he asked as he grinned at her cheekily.

“What stars?” Maia asked looking up at the gray sky. It was nearly impossible to see stars with the city lights. Dick looked up as well only to get poked in the face with that stick.

“Race you” Maia sang wiggling out from under Dick and dashing toward the fire escape quickly descending. Dick’s laughter ringing in her ears as she bolted toward her apartment.

Dick flipped through the open window of Maia’s apartment landing on his feet. Maia rolled her eyes “Ok show off”

“Only when a pretty girl is present,” Dick said pulling her toward him. Maia sighed as she let her fingers slowly play with the hem of his shirt.

Ranking the defensive play-caller for each NFL team

Calling defensive plays is tougher than ever in the NFL with talented quarterbacks and rules that favor offense, but someone has to do it. Here's our ranking of the top defensive play-callers heading into the 2021 season.  

Vincent Carchietta / USA Today Sports Images Few would argue with the claim is the best head coach and defensive mind in NFL history. Even before winning six Super Bowls with one of the most consistently strong defenses of the last two decades in New England, Belichick helped the Giants win two Super Bowls as defensive coordinator under Bill Parcells.   2 of 32

2. Don Martindale, Ravens defensive coordinator

Kirby Lee / USA Today Sports Images After a one-year stint as Broncos defensive coordinator in 2010, Martindale has reemerged as one of the best coordinators in the league with Baltimore since 2018. His defense has plenty of talent, but Martindale's scheme and disguise have helped the Ravens finish third place or better in points allowed in three consecutive seasons. Even nearing age 60, he's a possible head coaching candidate in the near future for good reason.   Robin Alam / Icon Sportswire Butler has served as Pittsburgh's defensive coordinator since 2015, and over that time the unit has been consistently elite. He deserves praise for the unit's stability despite a shuffling linebacker corps and secondary, and the Steelers peaked at third in points and yards allowed last season.   4 of 32

4. Todd Bowles, Buccaneers defensive coordinator

Kim Klement / USA Today Sports Images Bowles' time as head coach of the Jets from 2015-2018 wasn't as successful as hoped, but he's re-established himself as an elite coordinator under Bruce Arians. He architected an elite defense under Arians in Arizona during 2013-2014 before going to New York, and the Bucs improved more than 20 points in points allowed from 2019 to 2020 with an influx of young talent.   5 of 32

5. Dennis Allen, Saints defensive coordinator

Kirby Lee / USA Today Sports Images Allen struggled in two-plus years as head coach of the Raiders from 2012-2014, but he's likely to get another opportunity due to his success as a coordinator in his next act. the Saints defense has shown consistent improvement since he took over in 2015, going from worst in the league to fifth-best in points allowed last year.   Brace Hemmelgarn / USA Today Sports Images Zimmer had an accomplished and proven career as an NFL defensive coordinator and play-caller with Dallas, Atlanta, Cincinnati, and the Vikings before Minnesota's decline last year. He deserves a mulligan due to the bevy of injuries, ending the team's streak of five consecutive seasons finishing top 10 in points allowed. He likely needs a full rebound in 2021 to keep his standing.   Isaiah J. Downing / USA Today Sports Images Fangio was an accomplished defensive coordinator with nearly 20 years of NFL experience before getting a head coaching job in 2019. That experience likely encouraged him to keep calling plays while wearing the head coach headset. After a good year in 2019, Denver's defense regress last season with a bevy of major injuries, but there are few defenses in recent memory better than the one Fangio orchestrated with the Bears in 2018. The return of Von Miller and a further influx of talent gives Fangio the chance to approach that level this season.   8 of 32

8. Dean Pees, Falcons defensive coordinator

Dale Zanine / USA Today Sports Images Pees' coaching resume is long and accomplished, serving as a defensive coordinator for the 14th season with his fourth team. He's led elite defenses with the Patriots, Ravens, and Titans, and has come out of retirement for the difficult task of leading the Falcons. He should be the right man for the job, with eight top 10 finishes in points allowed.   Darren Yamashita / USA Today Sports Images While Spagnuolo failed as a head coach with the Rams from 2009-2011, there are few more accomplished defensive coordinators in the history of the league. He's won the Super Bowl with two different organizations, helping halt the Patriots' perfect season in 2007 and turning around the Chiefs defense in 2019. Spags has overseen a successful transition to the 4-3 in KC, helping the defense rank in the top 10 in points scored in consecutive seasons.   Jayne Kamin-Oncea / USA Today Sports Images So far, Staley has been NFL coaching look easy. After only one year as the defensive coordinator with the Rams in 2020, he was hired as Chargers head coach. The hype was for good reason, as the Rams were No. 1 in yards and points after years as a college coach and NFL outside linebackers coach. Time will tell if he's able to wear multiple hats successfully in his new role.   11 of 32

11. Matt Eberflus, Colts defensive coordinator

Mark J. Rebilas / USA Today Sports Images Eberflus has regularly been a head coaching candidate due to the performance of Indy's defense since he was hired in 2018. He was retained by Frank Reich after Josh McDaniels backed out of the head coaching position, and has been one of the team's greatest assets, finishing 10th in points allowed in two of three seasons with the Cover 2 scheme.   12 of 32

12. Jack Del Rio, Washington defensive coordinator

Scott Taetsch / USA Today Sports Images Del Rio has a wealth of head coaching experience between the Jaguars and Raiders, but he also led a strong defense in Denver from 2012-2014. His current unit in Washington could be his most talented, and it showed last season finishing fourth in points and second in yards allowed.   Rich Barnes / USA Today Sports Images Frazier has been an NFL coach since 1999, with stints as a defensive backs coach, coordinator, and head coach. He was hired in 2017 to coordinate the Bills defense when Sean McDermott took over, and although inconsistent, the Buffalo defense has remained a strength. The unit finished in the middle of the pack last season after allowing the second-fewest points in the league in 2019.   14 of 32

14. Gus Bradley, Raiders defensive coordinator

Kirby Lee / USA Today Sports Images Bradley's dominant Seahawks defense in 2011-2012 earned him a head coaching opportunity with the Jaguars. After an up and down four-year stint in Jacksonville, he's coordinated defense with the Chargers and now rival Raiders. His defenses have featured four top 10 finishes in points allowed over eight seasons, but he has a tall task with a Raiders defense that has been consistently bad in recent years.   15 of 32

15. Dan Quinn, Cowboys defensive coordinator

Jason Parkhurst / USA Today Sports Images Quinn is well known as the Falcons head coach from 2015-2020, leading the team to a Super Bowl in 2016. Before that time, he led an elite Seahawks defense in 2013-2014, and Dallas is optimistic that he can help a defense that was historically bad last year. He will have his hands full with a team that's still developing at all three levels, and Atlanta's defense was in the bottom half of the league over the last four seasons.   16 of 32

16. Vance Joseph, Cardinals defensive coordinator

David Wallace / USA Today Sports Images Joseph saw a quick ascent from defensive coordinator in Miami in 2016 to a two-year tenure as a head coach in Denver. After struggling there, he's entering his third season with Arizona. The Cardinals defense has been in a rebuild with talent deficiencies, especially on the backend, but saw rapid improvement from fifth worst in points allowed last season to 12th best. He still faces obstacles this season with a terrible secondary, but the tandem of Chandler Jones and J.J. Watt on the edges could offset the weaknesses.   17 of 32

17. Joe Woods, Browns defensive coordinator

Jeff Lange / USA Today Sports Images After serving as Denver's defensive coordinator in 2017-2018, Woods received a second chance under Kevin Stefanski in Cleveland last year. The Browns defense ranked in the middle of the pack in points (21st) and yards (17th), but expect improvement this year after improvements in the secondary.   Matthew Emmons / USA Today Sports Images Smith is best remembered serving as Bears head coach from 2004-2012 and Buccaneers head coach in 2014-2015, but before that time helped fix a Rams defense as coordinator from 2001-2003 with the Tampa 2 scheme he learned under Tony Dungy. After some time as a college head coach at Illinois, he could face tough sledding with a talent-deficient Texans squad.   19 of 32

19. Ken Norton Jr., Seahawks defensive coordinator

Joe Nicholson / USA Today Sports Images After an excellent NFL career, Norton has had a nice run as defensive coordinator of the Raiders and Seahawks. He deserves credit for keeping Seattle's defense stable in spite of nearly a full rebuild, though the unit has finished no better than 11th in points allowed.   20 of 32

20. Josh Boyer, Dolphins defensive coordinator

Jon Durr / USA Today Sports Images Boyer has strong results to show for his one season as defensive coordinator in Miami, as the Dolphins improved rapidly and finished sixth in points allowed. His previous experience was as a defensive assistant in New England and Miami.   Chris Pedota / USA Today Sports Images After paying his dues as an NFL defensive assistant, Graham got his first coordinator job with Miami in 2019 before going north to New York last season. While Miami's defense finished last in the league in a season in which they arguably tanked, New York's defense showed improvement last year, ranking ninth-best in points allowed. A product of the Bill Belichick coaching tree, Graham is on a clear head coaching track.   Kirby Lee / USA Today Sports Images Morris has big shoes to fill replacing Brandon Staley, who led the Rams to be ranked No. 1 last year. While he was head coach in Tampa Bay from 2007-2011, Morris got only his first opportunity as an NFL defensive coordinator in Atlanta last year before being promoted to interim head coach in the middle of the season.   23 of 32

23. Jeff Ulbrich, Jets defensive coordinator

Vincent Carchietta / USA Today Sports Images Ulbrich got his feet wet as a coordinator with the Falcons last year after Dan Quinn was fired. He previously had experience coaching the team's linebackers but has a great opportunity to call plays under former 49ers defensive mastermind Robert Saleh with the Jets.   24 of 32

24. Joe Barry, Packers defensive coordinator

Mark Hoffman / USA Today Sports Images Barry is replacing Mike Pettine as the Packers defensive coordinator and has high expectations on a team with Super Bowl aspirations. He has previous experience in the role with Detroit in 2007-2008 and Washington in 2015-2016 but has never led a defense that finished in the top half of the league in points allowed.   25 of 32

25. Phil Snow, Panthers defensive coordinator

Kirby Lee / USA Today Sports Images After an extensive career as a college coordinator, Snow got his first opportunity to coordinate an NFL defense last season under Matt Rhule. Read the full article
