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

SARCASM.....you are just a bit too tightly wound today.

 

[blueblood70]

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.

he stated its unacceptable pattern after 4 weeks meaning that should ahve been enough time to acclimate and its not working.. its not like a lifer coach is just getting in his car and headed home they spend 18 hrs a day breaking down film and trying to come up with solutions.. Fans who claim to know what goes on and what doesnt are clueless,,they arent just LETTING this happen there are valid excuses and players need to be held accountable even if injurys has left them thin..

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.

Except when they move on to other teams. Amazingly they don't suck anymore and go on to player many more years in tbe NFL.

Riddle me that Batman?

And again this should surprise no one. One of the criticisms of Nolan and his defense was his complex system and constant reads would lead to confusion, overreading of plays, more reactive play, etc.

Moose made the comment during the game a couple of times, that at times the defense looked confused and not sure what they were supposed to do. We saw it in the Seahawks game where Aikman pointed out how it seemed like half the defense was doing one thing and the other something else, crystalized by the one TD to Lockett where Aikman pointed out it looked like half the secondary thought they were playing zone and the other half were playing man.

I'd be more willing to write this off as growing pains under a new DC, but the reputation of Nolan makes this seem like this is a feature of his defense, not a bug caused by no practice time.

still stands look around the last 4 weeks at new threads Fans are egomaniacal know it all that have the Gaul to FEEL they know all the answers and every coach and payer suk...

sad truth SM and all the available information that gets out to and now make them Feel they are part of inner workings of the team and know what goes on in meetings and act as if the coaches and player dont care and re not trying..this is not the case..

fantasy football,. sports betting, and madden does not make fan know jack about what coaches and players go through year round..

The one call disaster was when they answered the phone and booger was on the other end in 1988.

When you have tons of physical talent you can run simple schemes and win consistently. Look at the 2012-2015 Seahawks, #1 defense 4 years running and it was a piss-easy scheme to understand. But the roster was full of monster athletes you just needed to give a clearly defined role. No mistakes because they didn't have to think to much, just stay in your lane and run on instinct.

When you have really smart players, you can sacrifice a little on the raw physical talent side to run elaborate systems that confuse everyone. This is the Belichick model, where every week than they can run an entirely defensive scheme and break out crazy stuff like the 6-1 front they used to take the 2018 Rams out behind the woodshed. But again, that system only works if you have the players for it, and most linebackers are dumb as a bag of hammers compared to Donte Hightower (or Jerrod Mayo or Tedy Bruschi back in the day), for instance.

Taking a historically dumb team like the 21st century Cowboys and changing over to an elaborate scheme in a severely curtailed offseason is kind of just dumb on its face.

 

[LucaBrasi]

One call, multiple, doesn’t matter. Trotting out Jaylon Smith, Darian Thompson, the wildly overrated Xavier Woods, and a plethora of other jags is the problem

 

[ItzKelz]

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

I think more people were upset with the Tampa 2 approach the Richard doubled down on when he got to Dallas because the way he coached it didn't give us an opportunity to get turnovers in the secondary often.

 

[khiladi]

That’s because Phillip Rivers has an OL and RG now and knows how to control the clock. Rivers has three INTs and two of them were in the first two games with a brand new team. He hasn’t thrown a pick the last to games. They are second in terms of TOP.

Our offense on the other hand is thirty first.

All posts including yours are just an opinion. My sarcasm is due to the fact we do the same thing each week and fail...makes you WONDER if the coaches and players actually watch game film to TRY to make adjustments for a DIFFERENT outcome.

 

[The Natural]

Having freaks like Deforest Buckner and Darius Leonard certainly does help

just because you cant see it being different doesn't mean changes werent attempted.. results are poor defense sure but they are trying and that im sure of... again you may not see nuisances you arent at practice or in meeting rooms where changes are bind made and cant all be done at ne.. get passed it again internet GM and Coach syndrome run rampant where teams are losing but truly fans have no knowledge on what was changed and whos doing what truly wrong..

 

[Frosty]

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.

Welp....look at the bright side.....we may be in the running for high a draft pick ala Trevor Lawerance

 

[Praxit]

..since when did football become rocket science?

 

[Kaiser]

..since when did football become rocket science?

Its not rocket science but its all about execution. That's why they have a Preseason every year and if you don't have one while trying to install a new scheme, you get the doggy doo we have had so far.

Especially if the coaches try to push the new system too far, too fast.

 

[CATCH17]

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

IT sucks but being great at bending and not breaking is probably the best defense you can play in the modern era unfortunately.

 

[blumayne38]

Well.........lol

It’s the worst thing to go back to a Tampa 2 system that was run here last year?? Bs. Stubborn old prude.

 

[stilltheguru]

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

You still need good coaching to execute (simplicity). Rod is trash and still is which is why hes just a dline coach and will never be a coordinator again same as Garrett will never be a coach.

 

[JoeyBoy718]

The timing of this season was terrible. People understandably wanted a regime change. We also couldn't have predicted a pandemic that would limit our ability to prepare. This situation benefits continuity over change. And it's even worse when the D coordinator we brought in is known to have a complex defense. The McCarthy era is off to a terrible start, partly due to incompetence, but also due to bad luck.
