You guys will never truly be happy with the defense because the league is not built for defenses to be successful.
The league is built for teams who make explosive plays to win the most games.
I don’t care what we have on defense when we play these elite QBs they’re still going to get theirs regardless of what we have on defense.
Our offense needs to get better and it starts with Dak not going into a shell in big games.
We can’t play the NFC East and pad stats come playoff time.
However, that is why i stated the onus now is on the offense. We've built a great defence. You do need a defence, even in today's NFL. We have weapons at WR, and I want another WR in this draft to add to it.
Also, when I said offense, I was indirectly referring to Dak. The onus is on him to get this team where it needs to go. He's got the defence. He's got a system with the WCO now that I think will fit him better. He's got a coordinator in Schotty who I think will be better for him than Moore was. He's got an improved QB coach this year. Jerry has built almost the perfect team for Dak. All he really has to do is drive the bus. It's why I was saying, I could see a QB being taken next year if he falters. Jerry couldn't have given him a better defence. I've defended Dak for a long time, and I'll always support him because he's the QB. However, at the same time, my expectations for him are much higher now than they were a few years ago. He played well in 2021. His interceptions annoyed me last year. He'd better protect the ball better this year. He's got a defence that should give him a lot of short fields. I expect touchdowns this year.
