The defense did play poorly. They were letting the Jags go up and down the field. They should’ve gave up a TD but Etienne just flat out dropped a wide open pass on 4th. Receivers were running wide open down the field and Lawrence just missed them. I mean, it’s almost impossible to deny Wentz is the reason we won this game. He was also the reason we had to come back so it’s a devils advocate kinda situation but the defense was not good by any means. 

He is the reason why we were up and the reason that we were down and the reason we came back

 

Carson Wentz is the life of this team 

 

defense isn’t our strength neither is our running game

I’m not, but the D also gave up 19 pts in the 2nd half. The O didn’t play well in the 3rd quarter but either did the damn D! I’ve said that multiple times now. 

Get your 28 million dollar QB to put more points on the board while the D is only allowing 3 points and maybe you'll have a solution. Yet you want to focus on the 19 points We ALL Know this D is capable of giving up Because Ron Rivera failed to add any additions.

28 million for a qb is peanuts in the modern nfl

Who didn't know these things going into the year? Why all of a sudden doesn't Rivera and Wentz have to hold more Pressure than anybody else?

Rivera chose Wentz while also chosing not add more to the Defense!

Poor tackling effort by Holcomb is not the offenses fault 

But you loved this LB core so much Turtle. They didn't need to add any additions other than a Mayo and passing on Dean in the draft was just fine. Holcomb and Davis were gonna ball out this season. Don't change now.

I didn’t say that. I said they wouldn’t do it, but I’ve been calling for better Lb upgrades in the draft and FA since 2008 for this roster. Rivera has been complacent bc he views Holcomb as some great LB which he isn’t - at best he’s above average & would be the 3rd best LB on a great D - then, they feel the need to play Jamin so, they didn’t even invest better in the position bc they went to see what Jamin does. Hopefully they improve, it’s hard to imagine them being much worse than this preseason & today.

They are who they are.  I don't plan to see anything different that's why many have been begging for upgrades at the LB position.

That 2 LB scheme doesn't work. Maybe Holecomb and Davis could improve in a 4-3 LB system. With Holecomb in the middle and Davis outside. Rivera and Del Rio inability to see this is really frustrating and inexcusable.
