LVE trying to change direction in the open field is like watching an oil tanker trying to dock in a bay.
oh no, you didn't!!

Just watching philly and Miles Sanders decimating Jacksonville with no linebackers. They will do the same to us. Mark my words. And wait for LA with crossing routes and run game that will shred our middle. Coming to a store near you.
After watching the anemic commanders run all over us. Its going to be tough to watch this defense the next 2 weeks if they dont figure something out

Nick Martin had has way with wolf boy (as well as other blockers) Couple first quarter plays but after that nothing and a day late and a dollar short on most running plays. We will be destroyed by rams and philly on the ground game. Our stellar defense really covers for an incredibly ineffective LVE (and Barr to be honest). But we will be exposed the next two games unfortunately. Washington did expose us with the run on a number of plays. Offensive coordinators on good teams with run games will fully expose our weak link. That is why I suggested more safely play and Wilson and Bland really shined. I just don't see the point of LVE taking up a spot on the 11.
Can't have all pros at every position, but ya this is probably his last season here.
The neck injury really has set him back.

Brown is the weak link

I know you're not talking about Anthony Brown, because he nearly had a shutdown game tonight.

He gave up a TD, but that happens.

I love all of our DBs.

Some of you are funny. Wentz isn't a bad player. He could do some damage if he had a line and our defense wasn't so good.

But we held them to 10 points, even with Wentz throwing to Johan Dotson.

Get a grip. WFTs are somewhat respectable for a 1-3 team.

Meanwhile, Dallas is 3-1. You should enjoy it. Because they'll be 4-1 next week against the Kegals.

Its not about being an all pro he plays scared, timid, and soft in the run game. Just replay todays game and just watch him. Thats all i ask of anyone just watch #55. Its embarrassing hes playing tbh. My sons hs team MLB plays tougher

Not sure what other options we have?
We are in the middle of the season.
Upgrade this off season for sure.

gave up a Td and a long 3rd and 15 or so being lazy. Any time you need a play you go after Brown

There are no weak links on the defense.

That's why they'll finish in the top 3 points allowed as a unit, in my prediction .

Defense gives up 10 points and people looking to whine anyway.

Still don't like those ypc numbers so I'm no better.

What LVE has going is he’s calling the defense in the middle and Lawrence makes the adjustments on the d-line. You see it throughout the game.

I doubt Jabril Cox is up to par in that regard and Anthony Barr definitely isn’t as he is also getting acclimated to the scheme and his teammates tendencies during the game.

LVE is definitely not interested in much contact and his instincts are lacking it seems but I think it’s mostly due to the lack of passion for collision. That is the worst thing for a MLB.

I dont know at this point i would try luke gifford. He still cant read keys and gets tricked on misdirection all the time. Sean Mcvey is going to have a field day with him next week
It's a problem , no doubt, without a viable solution I am afraid.
