The Makeshift Secondary

[ChronicCowboy]

Bland has been a pleasant surprise as slot. He should stay there next season and Lewis should compete with a 1st round pick for the starter opposite TD.

 

[Carson]

Give Wright a try.
Give Mullen a try.
Give Mukuamu a try.
If none of them can play you have a scouting problem.

Wright stunk per usual today.

Muk, Mullen and Sheffield need reps before the postseason begins

 

[Creeper]

All teams have injuries. Our guys just have to step up and stop biting on everything like Bossman did today.

Yes, all teams have injuries, but take any team and remove 4 or 5 guys from their starting lineup on one side of the ball and replace them with subs and see how much the play of that unit suffers. It is inevitable. Take the Eagles and replace their starting CBs with backups. Do you think teams will have more success throwing the football against them? Injuries hurt.

But I will say this. The Jags had two offensive tackles out for part of the game and the Cowboys did not take advantage of it. The pass rush was just awful today.

They've got a couple of Quinn guys on the practice squad. Let's have a look at them these last three games, since a playoff spot is clinched. The division race is over.

I wouldn't be opposed to seeing
Mukuamu on the corner....he was a CB in college. Thing with him....you better play man...and let him jam the crap out of people.
. And give him some help...

Gonna be the reason this team loses in the first round and imo the main reason for the demise of this defense and pass rush. DQ is a raid to run as many of his exotic all out blitzes bc he can’t trust scrubs like Kelvin Joseph or Nashon Wright to cover anyone down the field. I really think this has been the ultimate reason why the pass rush has been so non existent the last 3 games. Anyone?

Mullins is not very good but he is better the Joseph and Wright. I would put Mullins out there for the next 3 weeks. Call up the practice squad nose tackle to see what he can do. It’s time for Clark, Cox, and Micah to rotate at middle linebacker. I am done with Barr. Call up Tak as well. The defense has worn down.

WTH are you trying to say?!
"DQ is a raid to run as many of his exotic all out blitzes bc he can’t trust scrubs"

This makes my brain hurt.

Quinn isn't much of a blitzer at all. What sport are we talking about? What planet is this? What language do we speak?

Just put anyone in other than the rapper, pure garbage.

I second that- grab somebody from the stands - dont care, but anyone but Joseph

We definitely need Cornerbacks NDT in the draft

 

[nightrain]

Our pass rush is being deterred by the threat if running. They've got the book on us now. Without that rush those dbs don't hold up. Add in Parsons is looking worn down and it's not good.

I said I wouldn't get hyped until we played good ball in December and here we are again.

The Jags ran for over 7 YPC. If that was a due to a focus on stopping the run, time for adjustments back to pass rush.

actually although the secondary is dinged up, the pass rush has disappeared. we had 1 sack the past two games against two of the worst OLs in the league. if the pass rush is not fixed, doesn't matter who we have in the secondary, we will not be able to stop any passing game.

 

[shabazz]

Get ready for a shiny new CB early in the draft next April.

……good move. We’re already to deep at DT position as it is.

You've got a 2nd and 3rd round picks from the 2021 draft. These guys should be coached up, ready to step up and play.

How many people on this forum downgraded both Brown and Lewis . Many . I often said Brown was a capable NFL DB who as a 6th rounder has been a steal . In practice this week Mukuamu should get a shot at being opposite Diggs . He played it in college and he’s athletic . With Wright as backup .

***Afraid- sorry bub, i was posting on my phone, sometimes autocorrect doesnt kick in.

And what you talking about Quinn isnt much of a blitzer??? Maybe he isnt sending 8-9 guys but he def sends 5-6 and has them all standing up at the line so the QB has no idea where theyre coming from. My point was I havent seen as much of this since Brown went out and my guess is because the young replacements in the secondary are having issues, either with communication or in Joseph's case, just a pure lack of ability.
