Our defense has been confused all season.

If I’m Dak I’m waiting to see if the Colts make me an offer. With that dynamic D he would be in a much better place. He would also be a huge upgrade from Phillip Rivers.

well if you listened to MM post game speech he stated he is against a one call defense but maybe that changes after he watches the game again..lol
Watch game film? You mean, our coaches and players actually watch game film to fix problems and make adjustments?

The opposite of what we're seeing from our D.......




Mike McCarthy was asked what changes could be made from a personnel or coaching front on defense after Sunday’s loss. “Well, you know we’re in a scheme change from the prior scheme here and we’re not off to a good start. The worst thing we can do is narrow everything down and be a one-call defense. I refuse to do that. That’s not the path. We have a defense that fits our players, and we have to make sure we are getting those guys in position.”

yea I know but he also implied the D is impacted by scheme change, which actually bothers me a little. Hell, your season is live and kicking, and obvious the D isn't ready. You think other team care, hell no, they will show you no mercy.

it’s not even about “confusion” or complicated schemes. Our players just suck. That’s all. They’ve been in two schemes now. One that’s simple. One that’s “complex” (Nolan just sucks tho IMO). And they’re bad in both. Common denominator is our players are garbage.

Lol. People complained about Marinelli's system which stressed execution over confusion

Exactly what I was going to say. And that Eberflus came out of the Ryan multiples system that wasn’t supposed to be simple at all, though he obviously might have changed that up completely after leaving Dallas.

Marinelli played mostly vanilla coverages hoping his stunts would generate pressure and force turnovers. But the league has become way more advanced passing wise and his soft zones got picked apart.

There's quite an ocean of defensive schemes and plays between Marinelli's vanilla schemes and what Nolan is trying to do.

yes they do if you think they dont you are very Lost an d using nice word to not get benched ....

Its amusing when you think these coaches dont spend 18 hrs a day watching film and trying their best to come up with game plans and using whatever talent they have left to play..

clueless fans never cease to amaze me..

you have the answers but they dont..lmmmao

Hey, he's going to go down with his boy. Gotta give him credit, LOL. He also will bring Nolan back in 2021 regardless of how crappy this defense is.

The McCarthy era looks like it's gonna be a fun ride.

Can't stand Bucky... But I said that last week. You can call terrible plays, but they can work if you have a team that can actually execute them. We don't have that...

Not sure I'll go that far but I do think we have mostly average/role players who've hit their ceilings and we're asking them to play like All-pros and the talent is just not there.
