More Culture problems

In my humble estimation, this game represented a startling, bewildering regression from the previous, terribly-disappointing season.
I would agree. That’s why it’s so disheartening. Not only did we look like last year but according to EPA we actually were better last year.

I’m not happy with losing but I could get over it and be cool if we competed. But it looked like we regressed.

The only thing that is positive is it is the first game and we can get it figured out. So as I said earlier let’s let the cake bake on defense because I’m still believing we can gel and get it together. The real question is can we get it together in time before we go 0-4. But to your point I feel more disheartened that it looked like 2025. That sucked. And I’m going to complain about that feeling but I’m not convinced this is going to be a year long Eberflus thing. Hopefully in a week we’ll see some progression instead of regression.
 
There's too many fans that will buy whatever Jerry is selling
The one question I'd ask is...... who thought that Defense could/should of stopped to run?
Does CP like the two non-tackling LB's (and Safety), that appear to be the reincarnation of the Jaylon Smith days?
Whether this was JerryJust Enough Roster Building or whether CP doesn't want a Bobby Wagner.... to secure the middle, giving our stocked Safety Room (and Downs as the Nickle) to play the outside.
I don't know if this is Culture or Players that can't perform (Overshown/Thompson's headless chicken in space).
 
Someone expected a polished gem and didn't get it. It was week one!
I dont think anyone expected perfection week 1, but what we got was a team completely unprepared to play with a defense that I'm struggling to name even one area they were even adaquate at. They were bullied in the run game, consistently out of position on misdireciton, multiple blown coverages, couldnt contain the QB run, just 2 stops on 3rd down out of 11 attempts, no one could handle the TE, and we could go on.

Honestly was there even 1 area of defensive football that we can build off of last night?
