Where are the turnovers?

[Hawkeye0202]

Is it just me, I can't remember the last game we had an interception. We have all heard they come in bunches but in the last 4/5 games, I think we only have a few.

Hey we had one on the one yard line after a long drive couldn't have been more deflating and I'm sure before it's all over another one of McCarthy's stupid undisciplined players will perform some unprecedented act that will cost us a game

What did otter say in Animal House that it was time for somebody to perform some stupid and futile gesture that's McCarthy's speech on the sideline probably during a playoff game with the 49ers to end our season.

There can't be "bunches" of turnovers unless there are periods of drought.

Teams are getting the ball out quick. DQ has the guys giving cushion when they should be pressing and sitting on everything short as an adjustment.

I don’t know why we don’t jam and press more. It’s clear he doesn’t want to give up the big play— but until we start sitting on short routes and taking away those easy throws, teams will continue to just take the easy completions.

Seattle game Bland had one. Eagles, Bills and Dolphins - none.

I have said this before but it is worth repeating because many just dont get it. Defense is about discipline, gap control, intensity, tackling. It is not about turnovers. TOs are hit or miss. A defense that relies heavily on TOs like we do, is a mirage and cannot play consistent winning football

The better the competition the less apt they are to turn the ball over. It's why they win more games than they lose. It's different when we are winning 40 to 10 our guys like Bland can take chances and jump routes. He's less apt to do that in a tight game where a blown coverage could lead to a touchdown.

Agree.......when they lost their other WR, why in the world Q didn't double-team, or even triple-team Cheta is odd. Hell, take him out, Tua was struggling with accuracy to the other WRs.

Where's the turnovers??????? Check the oven, because the Cowboys don't have a clue on how to play defense anymore.

 

[cowboys5xsbs]

I thought the defense thrived from playing from behind but they just vet picked apart by any good quarter back.

 

[Captain-Crash]

yeah, why can't the defense score more?

100%

Take away their best weapon and force Tua to go somewhere else with the ball. Belichik has been doing this for decades, but I guess in a “copycat” league some things are just “too hard” to figure out how to implement

Turnovers are nice but you can't count on them to win.

We didn't get ints but we did get 3 fumble recoveries vs the Eagirls.

 

[loublue22]

they're back with zach wilson, mac jones and sam howell

They come with pressure and making the QB feel uncomfortable in the pocket. Only 4 sacks in the last 4 games.
