Bill O’Brien didn’t have to do a lot of convincing to get Romeo Crennel to be his first defensive coordinator.
Crennel took off last year after being fired as Kansas City’s head coach. He never considered retirement. He waited for the right opportunity to come along. O’Brien offered it.
“We believe in a lot of the same things,” O’Brien said. “It was apparent as we began talking in person and over the phone that this had a chance to be a good match.
“He’s been great. I have tremendous respect for him because of what he’s done in this league. He’s been successful for a long time, and he’s done it in different roles. He’s been a position coach, a coordinator and a head coach.”
Crennel’s defense allowed one touchdown in the 17-6 victory over Washington.
“He’s very poised and very smart,” O’Brien said. “In a game, he’s very calm. He’s able to make adjustments during the games. That has a lot to do with his intelligence and experience. It’s hard to surprise a guy like that because he’s seen it all.
“He’s great for young coaches. He’s a good mentor for young coaches. He’s been a part of a lot of winning organizations in New York and New England. It’s good for young coaches to see how he works.”
