Can you imagine the Green Bay board if Dallas won? Rogers couldn't beat that defense! They allowed a rookie to rush for over 100 yards! McCarthy has always sucked! blah blah

The Front Office should get up in front of the team and apologize.

The defense is lacking talent. They can't win their match-up's. The ones who can, aren't good enough to elevate the rest of the lesser players. Anthony Brown should not be starting. Jeff Heath should not be starting. Tyrone Crawford is not a RDE. Jaylon Smith is not ready. Kyle Wilber is playing meaningful snaps on defense against Aaron Rodgers? Waiver-wire pick-up Brian Price is starting against Green Bay?

Major failure by the Front Office, as well as any coaches who signed off on this defensive unit.
That is among the best assessments I have seen about our sorry defense.
Thanks, good lad!
And better days for a defense that is young, inexperienced and oddly put together.

I would say that 80 percent of the players don't give a **** if they lose. Remember this is a job, the less games they play they better shape they are in when the retire rich.

No, it's just that I don't blame the players. I blame the coaches that put them in their positions. I've never liked for fans to blame the players. They give up their bodies for the game and we want them to apologize for a three man rush that they did not call.

Got it. Makes a lot of sense. I have hated Rod's defensive plans from day 1.

You take short cuts in the off-season and this is what happens. The defense is lacking talent. They can't win their match-up's. The ones who can, aren't good enough to elevate the rest of the lesser players. Anthony Brown should not be starting. Jeff Heath should not be starting. Tyrone Crawford is not a RDE. Jaylon Smith is not ready. Kyle Wilber is playing meaningful snaps on defense against Aaron Rodgers? Waiver-wire pick-up Brian Price is starting against Green Bay?

Agreed, major failings by the front office on the defensive side of the ball.........Nick Eatman basically said the same thing on The Break, that "big mistakes were made in April with this defense". I am assuming he is talking about letting the entire secondary walk, he really didn't elaborate.

Crawfords a captain? He must have some inside knowledge of how marinelli gave Hayden his nickname.

Who will stand up and apologize to me for reading this post. No the excuse that I don't have to read it does not count for mods as Mods usually have to go into various threads they don't want to go in.
<---- Waiting for apology.

Whoever forces you to be a moderator should apologize to you. Immediately!

It's rare that captains are players who aren't any good. Lee should've been the only defensive captain.
I wouldn’t have made anyone on the d captain...lee is great player when healthy...but he is clearly unreliable health wise going forward, he’s on the wrong side of 30...Jones will likely give him a 7 year extension...

Up until 11 seconds to go in the game, the defense had given up 21 pts.

The only one that should be apologizing is Marinellie for putting his players in a no win situation.:rolleyes:
