Hunter2_1 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Are you satisfied with your OL? - Yes, actually. So far. This rarely lasts Are you satisfied with your coaching? - Yep. Is there a major leak in your secondary, and if so, who? - Eric Rowe, but he's been out. Again, pretty satisfied with this. Lack of speed on defense, that's our scapegoat.

Zithers2 Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Panthers Are you satisfied with your OL? OL is actually pretty good so far considering how many injuries piled up during the preseason and the first month... no Daryl Williams, Amini Silatolu, or Matt Kalil who were all expected starters. Team is getting along fine without them. Are you satisfied with your coaching? I think Eric Washington is still getting the hang of being a DC. Front four hasn't lived up to expectations wrt applying pressure. And he doesn't seem to know when to blitz and when not to. I also think Rivera/Turner can be better at managing end of game or end of half offenses. We've always been slow at those. Maybe it's a Cam thing. I dunno. And Norv ran the ball on 3rd and 1 with no timeouts last week which was kinda dumb. But there's been less head-scratching calls compared to the days of Mike Shula. Is there a major leak in your secondary, and if so, who? Donte Jackson is pretty boom or bust. The guy has 3 picks so I can't complain too much. Plus he's a 5'9 rookie playing on the outside. Probably gonna be some bumps along the way. Bradberry has done OK against Julio, Odell, and Green so far. Hasn't shut them down but he hasn't let them roll all over us. Safeties have been pretty crap from injuries but Eric Reid should alleviate that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucsfan333 Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 The right side of our oline is a 'car crash,' as @Buc Ball appropriately pointed out. Our rotation at RG shows we don't have a RG. And Dotson is struggling because of it. We also can't run the ball. Mike Smith's defensive scheme of off coverage is a joke. And has been since he got here three years ago. No team has allowed a higher completion percentage or higher opposing QB rating since he took over. Our secondary is Brent Grimes (who's lost a step), rookies, and a second year safety that couldn't start right away because he needed some work. Combine that with soft cover four and zero blitzing, and you're in for a world of hurt. I mean. We gave Bears fans hope for Trubisky. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Buck Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 Vikings Coaching: Excellent. O-Line: This is the weakest part of our team. Secondary: Excellent. We have 4 first round picks in our secondary, and they are all very good to great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Zim will get it sorted out. I think they will be in good shape by the time the playoffs roll around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team: Are you satisfied with your OL? Are you satisfied with your coaching? Is there a major leak in your secondary, and if so, who? Yes Mostly. Sean Payton still manages the clock like a real jerk though. Sometimes he should just run the freaking ball too. Everyone not named Lattimore has been more bad than good. Our front 7 has been our saving grace defensively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugashane Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 My issues with Fangio came to fruition again. He is so hell-bent on rushing 4 that he ignored a gimpy Mack's noticeable lack of burst, then played soft coverage against the likes of Osweiler. Horrible gameplan. Even if it is Brock, he is still a pro QB and can complete passes 5-6 yards past the LOS. Should have dialed up the pressure to compensate for Mack's injury, pressed the WRs to take advantage of the lack of chemistry and timing, but he sits back and runs his favorite bend-over-but-don't-break defense... which regularly broke. Our safties were atrocious today, IDK what was going on with their tackling but we gave up like 250 YAC. Amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centurion Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 Chiefs OL? Good, though losing Dr. LDT hurt Coaching? Yeah, gotta take good with bad.
