If our defense stinks again

Are we going to allow Cam to throw more? I mean our WR are playing better than we anticipated and passing the ball most of the time does not necessarily mean we cannot control TOP. We can have short passes all the way to the end zone (though this will not be ideal). I'm wondering when we are going to stop trying to rush for 1 or 2yds when it's obviously not working and try to win games the other way.

 

Also, I know RR likes TOP. But with the way the D is playing, why don't we come out and for the first three series, play a high tempo offense scoring quick and on every possession. After going up 21pts, we can revert to the TOP kinda of play where we make sure the play clock runs down before every snap.

Hard to play ball control when you can't move the

ball.

Hard to have a good defense when they are on the field more than 60% of the game.

Only 2 differences in this years O. Cam is a better passer and Cam can't mask how weak our rush game is.

O isn't hurting the D. They have 3rd and long and then suddenly out stud players do dumb poo. D is just weak the last 6 quarters

    • Yuck.  I still kind of like Herbert but these playoff performances are rough....
    • I feel like this was the case with River and McDermott defenses as well, we just had the jimmies and the joes to overcome these deficiencies with all pro players at edge and linebacker positions.  Even then, was extremely frustrated in 2015 when we'd let team come back from 20+ pt deficits playing prevent only to barely win at the end. 
    • We need to move on soon and just use Bryce as a bridge to find our next guy. I'd like to see how this offense works with Canales hand picking his own guy. Bryce holds this offense back a lot considering you draft the first pick to carry your team and be your best player. We invested heavily for Bryce and need everything to go right just to have him look like a solid game manager sometimes. When he plays well he can look decent or mid, but when he plays bad he looks like a bottom 5 qb in league (backups included). It's not worth it, especially if we need to pay him soon, which means we have to skimp all over the roster. If the defenses don't hand it to us on a silver platter Atlanta style then we struggle big time. Defenses don't respect the offense at all. With Cam we could have the worst offensive talent and I'd still think we had a shot in any game we played. If Bryce is facing a 3rd and 10 I pretty much wave the white flag and don't think we can make that first down.
