This defense needs addressed

[BrAinPaiNt]

This is beyond ridiculous

I hope they make a trade for a good player for this defense but I doubt it happens.
My guess is they ride with what they got hoping the players coming off injuries will help.

But I think it is fair to say, they better get good players in next years draft to address this defense.

Problem is you need more DTs, DEs, LBs and DBs. The LBs and DBs are always injured or coming off injuries. Still have no clue How Revel will do.

Fella look at the roster. They have no talent there.

 

[HungryLion]

They paid both corners who have done NOTHING. They were both products of the pass rush which is gone now.

The FO doesn't know how to build a defense.

No kidding....

Unfortunately, you could add a probowl CB, FS, MLB and pass rusher and they'd still suck in this scheme.

 

[diamonddelts]

The defense needs an enema.

They paid two corners that did well in another system with the league's best pass rush.

 

[ClappingCarrot]

Oh it's bad.

And it's cancelling out an offense that for the most part has been efficient and dangerous.

Agreed
The scheme sucks
Doesn’t mater who we have as players
This scheme can’t stop anyone

A hallmark of our idiot GM is they almost always make a big mistake or two in the offseason. This past offseason, recycling Eberflus, who as a DC and HC never really put a high quality D on the field, was a massive mistake.

You have to hope that Eberflus is like Nolan............... a one year dude. But I fear because Jones knows Eberflus, he'll get far more rope than he deserves.

He sucks. He just does.

 

[Cowboys5217]

Lots of picks in the draft and getting serious free agency is needed to fix this next year, so I expect the usual Jerry approach.

One good player on D ain't gonna make a difference. The front 7 is bad, and DBs can only do so much for so long in coverage.

Quinn was the key to the defense. How can we clone him?

 

[HungryLion]

They chose to pay the corners rather than pay the pass rush. That shows their stupidity.

6 weeks in and they STILL struggle to figure out how to play the various zone coverages he's calling.

I am under no delusion that the talent is good in the secondary but when guys are WIDE OPEN and guys seem confused in the secondary, that's a coaching issue, not talent.

Jerry has a long history of hiring coaches coming off poor performances. You fail upwards with Jerry. Just go back and look at all of the head scratching hires versus good ones.

Or at least prevent him from going to Washington and building a winner there.

 

[erod]

Sell sell sell.

Then spend in free agency and use the picks to rebuild this defense.

Revel, Overshown, Kelly, Diggy, Bland. Get rid of the rest.

Yes, that's what should have happened. That d and this o would have been fire.
