Three games to playoff teams and runover three times. Whats it going to take?

The better question would be, why does Jones like old, recycled, used up DC's. Let's get a young guy in here full of piss and vinegar to fire these paycheck collectors up. If that's not Richard, then bye. We're on the way to 30 years here guys. That's just fricken embarrassing for this once proud franchise...

It’s non running teams hammering us. Remember when that no name in Detroit had like 800 yard s and 2 TDs before our team even woke up? Still the same Run D

Again, for everyone in the back.
Rod does not call the defense!
He's DC in title only.
Kris Richard calls the defense on game day.

That's funny... I don't remember the Legion of Boom being a BBDB defense...

Must be something new Richard is trying.

Who wants to play that aggressive defense anyways?

Richards calls the passing game alignment. Rod still calls the DL game up front i believe. And of course the technique of getting washed out or trap blocked on every play is all rod.

Yes.

Richard is the passing coordinator.

That's his title. He also serves as the de facto defensive coordinator.
It's common knowledge to anyone paying attention on game day and
anyone that will actually read articles, listen to interviews, etc.

Richard praised Marinelli for allowing him to call the defense.

Nope.
He calls the defense on game days.

I don't remember the Legion of Boom playing Bend But Dont Break.

It not the calls it is the scheme, same thing with the offense it is still JG offense from 2008 , it is the play book not the plays being called.

It's difficult to discuss the scheme when some don't even know who makes the calls.
Even still, we could have the same playbook and call entirely different games.

But it as been the same since JG got here on O and since ROd got here on D,

Dallas did not run on screen all game, not even to WR, why not put Pollard out wide and get him the ball in space on a bubble screen.

Why not zeke and Pollard on the field together at the same time.
