I'm not saying this because I don't like Acho.

But it's pretty obvious to anyone who watched the game what the issues were.

Did he mention getting off blocks???? The one DL on the Kamara TD run was just getting pushed around and was trying to READ what was going on instead of attacking the OL guy

I agree and I hate to say this (lol) but some of us are not as technically inclined football-wise as others.
But what I did see IMO was a defense that played slow coz they were confused and/or thinking too much. I mean where was all that speed we saw against the Browns?

I'm not sure a single player on the front seven didn't get embarrassed on that play. I guess Micah didn't but he also went unblocked.

It simply wont show up when teams can run the ball effectively against you. The run game is the ultimate equalizer, and its no coincidence that this team has typically lost games when they cant control the run game. This defense absolutely has to either play with a lead or force 3rd and long situations where the offense is forced to throw the ball. When offenses are not one dimensional that speed isnt nearly as effective.

That was Phillips. All around zero effort from the team. 3 players ended the play on the ground that you could see. Odds are Diggs got shoved to the ground at some point as well if he didn't just float out of bounds on his own.

LG beat Joseph by 4 steps in a phone booth defending the end zone. Sad.
Phillips got blocked into the goal post. Sad.
