Secondary sucks but you know who else does? CJ, TD, Star, and even Luke

We have had plenty of bad defenses before, but none so bad as this year's. Why? For the underreported reason that our "stars" have had a ceiling of mediocre and have been terrible at times.

 

Greg Hardy apparently made Charles Johnson.

Thomas Davis has suddenly gotten old and has forgotten how to tackle.

Star is teetering on being an outright bust at defensive tackle.

Luke has been the best, but even he's been ripped in coverage and missed more tackles than he has in his career. I think it was his moronic neutral zone infraction that really ripped this defense's fragile psyche to shreds today and started the blowout.

 

The secondary is at an all-time low, but the "stars" in the Front 7 have been anything but.

I said this and people obviously misunderstood when I said nobody Hurney drafted is making a significant impact. I never said they wasn't solid players, but they're not doing poo to dramatically impact the game. Luke is just making a bunch of meaningless tackles. Why are they meaningless? Cause the defense is constantly giving up 30+

We just didn't show up today, period. Unfortunately, it's not the first time that's happened this year. Or the second. It's the third. Third and a half if you count the first half against the Bears.

 

That's the thing though. These guys haven't just sucked today, this has gone on all season.

Green Bay is exploiting the heck out of our defensive scheme. GB offense leads our back 7 off into oblivion and eats us up across the middle. We smoke screen our DBs with our LBs and we give up massive runs and have 0 pass rush. Hardy being out hurts more than people realize! Plus, our secondary needs to improve.

Green Bay has just put together the perfect game plan

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
