Why was LVE pulled for Lee?

Did Jaylon even play?

I think I heard his name called once, right around the start of the second quarter.

After that, crickets...……………………

A little OT, but what the hell was Lee doing on that game ending run? He was hand fighting with the TE and guarding the sideline like we were winning and Goff was trying to get out of bounds to stop the clock. He was the only one who could have prevented that 1st down at that point and he didn’t even try to get to the runner.

Well Heath didn't do much either other than stand there and look lost.

This was the worst game plans I've seen maybe ever....for a playoff game. And it all started before the ball was even kicked.

Having Daniel Ross inactive was the first mistake. Pregame conditions should have indicated...go long @ DT. It was gonna be a soggy field position game. Yet we benched our biggest DT.

Then having Sean Lee out there....OMG

The guy missed half the season...We were rolling w/ Vander Esch...***????? Kris Richard...you moron!!!!

I gotta give LVE credit....when Kris Richard was chewing his *** I seriously think I would have punched him right in the dick.

But LVE was a professional..and took it. I mean what else was he suppost to do when Woods was getting doubled and pushed into his lap?

We didn't call any blitzes tonight..as if we were afraid to get burned by Robert Woods. I mean seriously....we were terrified of Robert Woods...and played w/ 6 in the box the whole fricken night.

Just unbelievable.

And we stuck w/ this horrible game plan all night long.

Getting steamrolled...and we can't get out of our 2 LBer set. We made ZERO adjustments to stop their running game.

Sorry...this goes on our sorry *** coaches.

I don't care if we won a division title...this staff just got worked over by a kid playing Tecmo Bowl.

Yep, we got outcoached...………………………..but that happens dam near every week bro, where have you been

Sorry but LVE and Jaylon were trash like the rest of the defense tonight. They never saw anything like what the Rams were doing with misdirection on every damn play. The whole defense was either fooled or man handled at the point of attack. Also with the defense being gassed why not use your best substitute. Sucks but we lost not because of decisions like playing Sean Lee here and there, we lost because the Rams were better in every aspect of the game.

Showcasing Lee for off-season trade. Had to be that!

 

[Hawkeye0202]

Huh - what where some of you watching - everyone on the front 7 got annihilated - including LVE

Lee at least got one or 2 plays where the RB didn't get 5-7 yards.

Again everyone got owned - didn't matter if Lee or LVE was in.

you can make a case this being SEVERAL D PLAYERS worst game of the year ( DLaw, Crawford, Gregory, LVE just to name a few). For whatever reason, it like they played with little or no energy.

 

[Clove]

This entire defense stunk, no matter who was in there. Come to grips with it.

 

[stinkface]

I think what we saw was bad scheme on our side coupled with piss pore tackling. Anderson looked like the second coming of Jerome Bettis out there.

 

[sideon]

Basically he got the veteran treatment and was allowed to disrupt the chemistry of the defense.

Agreed. LVE might need a breather but he needs to be out there. I love Lee but it's time, he's been out for 4 months. Don't leave him out there for two consecutive long drives before putting LVE back in. LVE struggled early but is clearly our best LB. Let him play.
