Our defense...

Having Kuechly will help with a lot of that.  I saw a few plays today where it looked like Klein was either late getting in position or just not there at all.

Thats not good also when you LB has to constantly  cover the misake for other players. Defense needs to regroup after this game ASAP.

Klein didn't cover for anyone's mistakes...he was making his own.  Which was why I said that having Kuechly back in there will help out quite a bit.  Only thing that really worried me was the anemic pass rush.  But still we only allowed 16 points.  Could it have been better?  Absolutely, but I'm not panicking yet.

it was bad,tbh if luke doesn't try norman in the end who knows how this game would have ended,they were moving at will on offense, D line was getting pushed around all day, pass rush was non existent even with blitzes,they did a good job of picking them up, and the saints run game wasn't that bad either.

 

when you have as much draft picks and FA's invested in the defense they shouldn't perform like this consistently

I don't know...top 5 is pretty good.

No pass rush against a patchwork OL, poor tackling and too many open receivers. A doofus at QB was insanely efficiency and moved the ball at will. 

It was as bad as it looked and it needs to be fixed, now.

...I dont know why we make these total loozer QB's look worth a sht but we do...where were the exotic blitz's...where was the the heat?...pisses me off and if we are going to the next level we have to tweek that sht..

People are going to get tired of me but w/e...it's the absence of Hardy...

Some people brushed his absence off like it wouldn't matter but yea it does....and we had a losing record last year for the "what about last season" folks....our DL sucks nuts when we have our DT lining up at DE to try to manufacture pressure.(KK)

    • He doesn't seem good enough to justify the risk 
    • In that case its in his best interest to fully recover.  We are in a much better situation to judge his condition. It would be more risky for another team to throw money at him.  Taking a reasonable deal from us seems the most likely outcome if he is on track to return.
    • Looks like we're fifth in running plays/play action plays when in the lead and about 10th in the league when we fall behind.  The biggest thing I take from this is not that we drop off like that, because every team does, but that we drop off so much. A lot of the best teams don't  drop off much, depending on the game situation, preferring to stick to their game plan through out. Some of those are very good teams. Baltimore barely deviates from their run/action heavy plan. At the other end, KC also barely deviates, but they have one of the least run oriented attacks in the league by these stats. On the other side, there are teams that make even bigger shifts (based on last year's performance) and they are teams that for various reasons found themselves in desperation attempts. Dallas, Atlanta, the Browns, Bucs and Bengals were all literally throwing out their game plans and trying to either lean on their top end QB or were just frantically trying to create something downfield. Considering the years of us completely abandoning the run (oh those Matt Rhule days), maybe we are starting to stabilize. Don't even get me started on the Reich days...
