Us sucking D on Defense, is it the coaches or the talent?

I don't know how our defense fell apart this quickly, we were very solid last year and now we made the guy who won the get to be a Bengal for a day contest have an excellent game in place of AJ Green.

 

So who's to blame? The lack of talent and filling the defense with scrubs and rejects, or the coaches for not adapting?

With that said, bring Hardy's ass back after the Green Bay game, he'll have served his six games by then. (I know this won't happen because JR has to have his team take a hit in order to help goodell's incompetent ass with PR, but it would be nice)

Hardy's gone.  Frank Alexander is gone.  I think CJ is being limited by injuries.  Not sure what's going on with Star.  The secondary is a hot mess.  Kuechly, TD, and Short are really the only defensive players who are standing out.

 

We tried to mix some things up today and nothing really worked for long.  Cincy would simply counter our adjustments and keep on rolling.

Both. The lack of talent in the secondary and the young players on the D-line, and the coaches inability to adjust to what the offense is doing. Sean was sending some stupid blitzes throughout the game and kept calling that soft ass coverage, while our secondary was scared to hit anybody and running away from tackles. It doesn't look good at all. If Rivera can't field a good defense, then he is worthless.

      Joint Practice - Jets

      Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.

      Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.

      You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
