The Giants/Broncos Game Just Shows How Bad This Defense Is

I really hope this staff and front office watched this game. And to drive the point home that we might have the worst defense and scheme in football. Simien looked terrible today. Which is how it should be. He's not a good QB. At all. He can make some throws but so can any QB in this league. He's not consistent at all.

NYG stuffed their run game and made plays when it mattered in the secondary. We did nothing of the sort. We made the Broncos offense look the the 1998 Broncos with Elway and Terrell Davis in Week 2. It's depressing to watch defenses that actually scheme for the opposing offense. Makes the QB uncomfortable and not knowing what's coming. QBs are all about rhythm. Like a pitcher or a jump shooter. Knock them off of that and they are a completely different player. Giants disguised a lot of blitzes and coverages.

Yet all we do is sit back in the same basic soft zone just praying we don't get beat deep. And that weak philosophy teaches our defenders not to be aggressive or active. Giants had defenders all around the receivers tonight. When we played Denver, it was just pitch and catch all game long. To a guy who is not a good QB at all.

It's getting old year after year trotting out this same garbage scheme and allow any QB to look like Tom Brady or Joe Montana. Because we never change anything up or make the QB guess. I'm not even wanting a great defense at this point. How about just average for now. How about forcing some turnovers. But we never do because we just sit back and let the play come to us instead of being the aggressor.

Yeah, but look how much better our defense looked than DEN did against that scrappy NYFG offense.

Dallas' offense kept our defense off the field a lot of that 1st half if I remember. Denver's offense was terrible tonight. Denver's defense gave up 13 to NY. 7 was from the pick 6. Denver had plenty of chances to win that game tonight. Their offense kept crapping the bed and turning it over.

And this is far from just one game and a knee jerk reaction. We have been making spare QBs look like a HOF player for pretty much the entire Garrett era.

Actually this game is a microcosm of just how bad the entire league is.
Now with ARod going down with a broken collar bone, its really anyones game at this point.
NE should be the easy Vegas bet again to take it all.

We're just looking for things to complain about after the two home losses.

Naw, we are looking for successes, not dreams on pre season drama. 1/3 of the season is already by.

It doesn't work like that. It's a week to week league. Pittsburgh lost to Chicago and Jacksonville (both teams had top 5 picks) yet goes on the road into Arrowhead and beat the Chiefs today. Logic and reasoning doesn't matter much when "any given Sunday" can happen like that.

How is what's going on in threads like this "looking for success"? And if it is, how do you distinguish "looking for success" from regular old "reactionary *****ing?"

I guess I have been around these sites before this became a site with Reality, and his moto then was 'Isn't reality strange.' Back in the Star Wars era on the internet.

Our defense doesn't rely on the transitive property for its awfulness.

This game shows us that we now have one more win than the dreadful New York Giants.

Can you believe it? We only have one more win than them this year. They may very well end up with a better record than us.

Making scrub QB’s look like all pros is what we do

Austin Davis
Josh McCown
Matt Flynn

I’m sure I’m missing a ton more

I don’t know how you or anyone can find the desire to argue this defense isn’t that bad after giving up 32 points per game over the last 4 games.

I’d love to be an apologist as much as the next guy.
But they have to give me something.

well actually scoring over 30 and taking the L at home was all the proof I needed

I am sure the NINERS QB will look like an ALL-Pro this weekend coming.
