That's true Jeff Heath was in position to make a play in man coverage against Chris Godwin. Joyner was in position to make a play in coverage against Mike Evans.

Paulie G did his absolute best to put our guys in position, it's their fault that as safeties they can't run with the best WR's in the game in man. And it's Lawson's fault he couldn't stop Gronk. PAULIE HAD IT RIGHT! Or maybe he should actually try to create favorable matchups for our guys, I dunno, just a thought.

Our best defense is our offense running out the clock for as long as possible. Its ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't believe we left him out there to die like that. Guenther had to have been drunk as a skunk during the game. I can't believe how bad he is at something he has spent decades doing.

drfrey13 Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 The defense plays well for periods but overall is bad. Now we can not change all the players right now but I think we all agree that Guenther brings very little if anything right now to the team. We need to get rid of him this week so we have a chance to see if Rod can elevate that side of the ball. We will also see which players are bad and which players are bad because of coaching. We are a borderline playoff team if everything goes are way but but we are going to have poor defensive games more often than not. The risk of getting worse on defense with a coaching change is very small and the chance to improve is high. No reason not to do it right now. Zero excuse for Guenther to not have come up with something for a QB that has been in the league 20 years with known tendencies when we had an extra week to prepare. I hope this is not another Del Rio - KNJ situation were Gruden refuses to let Guenther go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tampa bay has too many weapons for favorable matchups, the 3rd WR did the most damage. Miller 106 1 TD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our players are regularly getting abused in horrible matchups. Guenther is clueless and Littleton hinted too it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humble_Beast Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 What do you expect to happen when Tom Brady has all throw to throw the ball. Any hall of fame QB is going pick you apart. No idea why Chris Smith and Vickers didn’t get snap. Those guys were making life hard for Mahomes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucksavage1 Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 The turning point of the game was Gruden decision to kick the 3 in the redzone instead of 4th and 1. The team was never same after that 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only Mark Davis would out pressure on Gruden's seat, then that would motivate him to get rid of PG. Ultimately the game was lost when Gruden didn't go for 4th and 1 in the redzone in the 4th quarter. The entire team was done after that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not excusing the defense but holding Brady and that loaded bucs team to 24points in the 4th is ok with me especially without arguably our best db abrams. Dline sucked but again we’re not built to shut offenses out we’re a bend not break defense. not putting this game on carr cause he played his heart out. But the lack of rt killed us. Parker even almost took out Jacobs by stepping on his foot allowing a sack on carr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bend but don't break defense only works if you're able to generate takeaways and gets stops in the red zone and we can't do either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or score points.... we had 10 points by halftime a td early in the first Literally only a fg to show for a quarter and a half that’s not gonna do it. you not gonna shut down Brady unless you have a a1 defense We have a d2 defense holding them to 24 in the 4th is ok imo sure we wanna pitch shutouts but that’s realistically not gonna happen vs that stacked team 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carolina scored 30 on us and has averaged 21 ppg in their other games this season. Buffalo scored 30 on us and has averaged 17 ppg in their 3 games since. New England scored 36 on us (offense scored 29) and have averaged 9.3 ppg in their 3 games since. We literally cannot stop anyone so I agree we have to put up points, but you're never going to have a winning record if your defense allows 30+ every week. That's what made it frustrating that we went for 3 instead of 7 in the 4th quarter. Gruden has too much faith in our defense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
