Graham's blitzes aren't highly effective. I don't like what he's doing defensively. Situationally it's just poor to be honest. The run defense is good, but the 3rd down/RZ defense is just horrific. And it seems like it's mostly the players on the defensive side of the ball that are defecting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were bad last year and lost a lot of key guys with a new DC/scheme this year. But yet we expect perfection from the offense with a brand new, very complex scheme just bc we added Adams? It's certainly how you act. Edit: And all of this with basically no Waller and half the season with no Renfrow so the same logic could really be applied that we haven't had a lot of key guys in a brand new, complex system yet you don't seemingly have the same attitude towards them. Wonder why............. And I'm not expecting the defense to be good, at all (but not the absolute worst either like they currently are). The simple notion that you're trying to credit them for stopping a team on a drive or two is pathetic and a pathetic excuse to use it against the offense Edited November 15, 2022 by BobbyPhil1781 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think one of the issues that has plagued us in critical moments down the stretch in games is that we've only really had Adams playing. agreed, dunno why we never used Johnson. also rather see dj turner than Cole.. cole has done nothing but drop huge plays, this week included. Hollins is what he is.. inconsistent and gets lazy at times but big target and solid hands for most part. Foster needs to be resigned. Waller needs to go sadly. We again need to add another WR. renfrow mustve been hurt even wheb playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better than 32nd in at least 1/2 of the categories would be welcome, and is totally reasonable. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atleast last year we had 40 sacks and were decent against the pass, good enough to make the playoffs. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For real. Seriously, do we even crack 15 sacks this year? There's no way to justify just how putrid we've been on defense this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We only won one of those and that's to the team that's most likely going to be picking number one overall(if it's not us) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get what you guys are saying but we just lost so many of the dudes that made us at least respectable down the stretch. Chandler Jones being a major dud signing definitely hurt us the most though.
