DEs are giving up contain too much.

Been a problem most of the seaason.
All they had to do was line dlaw wide and parsons wider on same side. Straight line to the qb. Especially on the right side after Johnson went out.

Offenses are beating us by running, then doubling Micah and throwing short quick passes.

For the life of me I don't understand how minshew was getting the ball out in 2 seconds and people were still wide open. Sometimes you gotta play some man with a spy, and play press coverage with help over the stop. make the qb fit the ball into some tight windows.

Yeah they need to set the edge much better instead of soon as the ball is snapped run straight up the field and not even worry about the ball carrier

Garrett and Marinelli are gone. But Garrett's and Marinelli's concepts are still being used. Marinelli's rush men, as he called them, played the run on the way to the QB. So, every defensive lineman is trying to get up field and get to the quarterback, if they bump into the running back while pass rushing... great. If they do not bump into the running back... oh well. Maybe we'll get him next time.

They've been all out pass rushing like that since 2013. That's why we can't stop the run, because it's not a priority. We draft all pass rushers because that's they want. So how can you change coordinators yet the scheme stays the same? I give you Jerrah "My Way" Jones, as a cause for that. AKA the owner, general manager, president, stick in the mud, chain and ball... meddler.


End of the first paragraph is too funny yet true

We gave up 3 yards per carry yesterday and held one of the top 5 rushing teams in the league to under 90 yards total. The run defense wasn't the issue yesterday. The pass defense is another story


HERE WE GO WITH THIS, BUT IT'S THE SAME ISSUE WHEN WE'RE GIVING UP 200 yards on the field

It all comes down to an extreme lack of talent at DT. When you lose that battle, it affects every aspect of your D.
