You still have to love 4th and 3 and we play a soft zone with deep safeties. Easy pitch and catch for Wilson over the middle.

Nolan is a turd. Not even xwalker can polish it.

It stinks. If it's not a bad secondary getting picked on, it's a DL that disappears for stretches of the game, then it's Mike Nolan calling a soft zone on 4th and 3.

There is nothing redeeming at all about this defense and it's likely going to cost us the season.

Why is Crawford in? He stinks. He and Lawrence are so robbing Jerry. Let Gallimore play.

Aldon Smith - 3 sacks. Getting paid nothing (until his jackpot next year).

Yep. 4th and 3 you press to try to take them off the field. Especially with them being able to run out the clock and kick a FG.

If they get that first down, they totally have the advantage in the game.

Tried to warn people about Nolan

I’m sorry, but I don’t know what team you’re watching.

Sometimes the emperor IS wearing clothes, even if one guy wants to stand up and shout the emperor isn’t wearing any clothes.

GOAT!

Crazy that we could go into a season depending on Darian Thompson as a starter. That's not even pretending to try.
I mean we got a glimpse of Thompson last year and he made Heath look great. 3 games in he is still making Heath look great.

If this team doesn't bring in a S to replace Thompson this week or give Wilson a better look, it's criminal IMO.

He's trash. Woods might be trash, like the trash in your bathroom - TP, old dental floss, etc. Thompson is like the trash in your kitchen - after you leave raw fish in there for 5 days.

Agree with OP somewhat coz Russell Wilson makes a lot of defenses look bad. His ability to extend plays is a killer. Notice several plays he we had decent coverage.

Wilson or not, this defense blows. It's arguably one of the 5 worst defenses in football, maybe even bottom 1-2.

By the way, I chuckled at how many times Aikman used the word "confusion" during the telecast. That's a Nolan hallmark and one of the criticisms of his recent stops - his desire to be so multi-faceted leads to confusion and misreads.
