Known as the ‘Mad Scientist,’ Anarumo’s ability to disguise what the defense is doing helps keep opposing quarterbacks off-balanced and guessing. He accomplishes this with late movement, versatile defenders who can handle a variety of roles, along with utilizing a variety of coverage looks.

A change of scenery might help rejuvenate Lou Anarumo's career. The Indianapolis Colts certainly believe it can. On Thursday, three days after Anarumo was hired, the Colts defensive coordinator explained how he intends to use his flexible scheme and unwavering standards to lead a quick turnaround so Indy can end its playoff drought.

Some around the NFL, including Chiefs star Travis Kelce, were shocked Cincinnati fired Anarumo. "I’ve always respected the hell out of him."
