I want to believe the defense just needs better coaching.
I just don't understand the refusal to play to the players' strengths. The defense is exposed and vulnerable out there. Why won't they make that change?It needs a scheme suited to its players: primarily a man scheme with heavy blitzing.
We don't have a bunch of guys with talent to win one on one up front.
Our secondary guys can mostly beat their man in man coverage. So you play them in zone.
And our defensive front guys are man up on their man instead of overwhelming blockers with numbers.
It makes it easy for the offense to execute.
Not only are you not getting to the passer fast enough, you're also giving the offense a bigger cushion to make plays on you.
It doesn't matter if you stop the run if you can never stop the pass. And you can't stop the pass when you just give them the play.
It's not even execution here.
This mindless scheme makes zero sense.
Oh, yeah, you change the scheme. And take what sticks.Do you think the defense would be any better if he was fired tomorrow?
They won’t install a new defense mid season. It would just be some other dude on the staff running Eberflus’ defense with a couple of “for show” tweaks, which are the same kind of things we’ll see from Eberflus anyway.
We’re stuck until the off season.
Exactly.I just don't understand the refusal to play to the players' strengths. The defense is exposed and vulnerable out there. Why won't they make that change?
Im not defending this schmuck , but our defensive roster is crap.. I'm telling you. The players aren't this bad.
Zimmer's defense wasn't this bad, situationally. He could come up with answers. BleederPus just gives the offense what they want.Im not defending this schmuck , but our defensive roster is crap.
Zimmer had Parsons last season and they still were ranked 31st for total defense.
The only team that had more points scored against them was the Panthers.
Picking up the likes of Sanborn Clowney and Elam havent budget the needle one bit
Being ranked 31st out of 32 teams last season isn't this bad?......the numbers dont lieZimmer's defense wasn't this bad, situationally. He could come up with answers. BleederPus just gives the offense what they want.
Did you honestly think there was a chance of that happening yesterday?Where the "Eberflus Fired" Headline?
What's wrong with Jerry? Where is his fortitude? What's the hold up? Does anyone actually think this somehow gets better?
You'd have to be a complete fool to keep Eberflus in charge of the defense. I'm telling you. The players aren't this bad. The Uberpus scheme and the play-calling has ruined the 2025 season before it even really started.
Don't be a clown, Jerral Wayne. Fire that silly clown. It's past time.
Give fans the headline we all want. It certainly can't hurt, and might just help.
Jerry should do something. He's embarrassing himself.Did you honestly think there was a chance of that happening yesterday?
No, I'm not saying they're great. I think they can be better. Like 20th, 23rd, something like that. We shouldn't be deaf last even with these players..Eberflus should be fired.
That said. You should consider that it’s a very real possibility that you overrate the teams talent.
Their lying eyes.Don’t think that is coming! They must see more before there eyes convince them on what they are truly seeing.
Change it to what?Oh, yeah, you change the scheme. And take what sticks.
It won't get any worse.
There are certainly changes you can make right now.Change it to what?
What about play calls and terminology?
You cant just tell everyone “go out there and cover a guy”
It takes an off season to install, teach and execute a defense.
