Playing press man, inside 15yd when TD beats you. 20 sec left in game

[NEODOG]

Of all the times playing 7yd off..... This is that moment

We get rid of the whole secondary & still produce the same results

It's not the players

 

[JBS]

It was horrible game management...

And yes..it's not the players

 

[texbumthelife]

I was thinking the same thing. Playing soft zones when we should be pressuring and then vice versa. Regardless of how inept and outdated Marinelli's system is, he has absolutely no feel for the game--a common theme with our coaches.

The only way to defend that play is to have a Safety over there.

It was a perfect pass. Six inches off in any direction and it's likely incomplete.

If you set the CB at the 4yd line, it for forces the the WR off that back shoulder throw....it let's the S play for both the slant & corner throws.....no picks can be run

Yes, perfect pass.... But a **** call

If it was that easy all CBs would play off down there and no offense would ever complete that pass.

Press is the right call there, just a great throw and catch.

You don’t give receivers a free release in that situation in man coverage.

Our fans screamed and cried for new players in the secondary. Everyone who understands the game warned them we cast off good players for young ones and there would be growing pains.

Here you go

We seem to have a hard enough time with it.

Yea and Nelson was out of the game Adams should have been doubled. Outcoached

That happens in every game with Garrett either win or lose.

 

[NextGenBoys]

The game was lost calling a pass play on 2nd and 1 with 1:30 remaining.

You either score with too much time, or you throw incomplete and stop the clock. We obviously didn't learn anything from our playoff loss in giving Rodgers the ball back.

This staff is a joke. Nothing is going to change until they're gone.

Yes you do, you have Heath back there.... Know your players. Heath sets up at the goaline, only to let players behind him...... He is so slow reacting to that throw both times & all season

Yep

Of all the things that pissed me off this game, that TD was just a great qb making a great throw against a rookie who didn’t turn his head.

Sounds like you’ve identified the problem, and it had nothing to do with press or cushion.

LOL.........no its definitely the players. The players we had before and the ones that replaced them. They either suck or they are too green. Or Rogers and crew are just the best at what they do. Stop deflecting. This D just sucks. Lets all agree and move on. We were never winning the SB anyway. And neither is GB. Their defense sucks too.

Marinelli called another crud game.

How many players do we have to go through and how many situations where we get burned before we start to wonder maybe it's not just a perfect play where we were just unlucky or the players fault?

This staff is mediocre.

And this dumb front office isn't going to realize that until we waste a few more years of Prescott and Elliott, etc.

This is an organization on a roller coaster and the front office is too blind to realize it.

Talent masks crappy coaching. Unfortunately, Dallas has very little talent in the secondary and crappy coaches. Press coverage was the right call there. It was just a damn good throw and catch. Man on has to make a play but it didn't happen. The safety may have been able to play over the top but Dallas has the worst Safety duo in the NFL. So what can you do?

 

[Verdict]

Marinelli sucks. We have enough talent. Lewis appears to be the real deal.

And a safety not even coming close to help.
