My confidence against intermediate offenses is pretty much gone

[beastson]

Atlanta, Saints, Pittsburgh this D and that weak ass zone coverage is going to struggle. I can't even think of who else will kill us with slants

We're not getting enough pressure without the blitz.  Run defense is really solid but we need the pressure.  If you don't get it with our zone scheme, you're f*cked.

Odell was just embarrassing our guys.  We needs better communication and quicker reactions by the D.

[LinvilleGorge]

We need the pass rush to provide a pass rush. QBs have all damn day against our D right now. The Atlanta game wasn't on them. The Falcons game planned to get the ball out quickly to take advantage of our CBs constantly playing off, but Eli could've read a book today in the pocket. I don't care who you're playing or who you have in the secondary, if you give a QB that much time he's going to eventually find someone open.

This defense is going to get smoked by the upper echelon teams in the NFC. If we can't contain Eli Manning and the horrid Giants offense, I can't even imagine going against the Rams, or Brees twice again. We are literally going to have to score 35+ points to win in the playoffs. This is what happens when you "hire from within" instead of going out and getting a proven DC (it's Mike Shula all over again, only on the other side). Eric Washington is getting schooled.

we just barely beat a potentially 2-14 team...

Relax. We get TD back this week. That will fix a lot.

Dont put the blame on us, blame the panthers for how they're playing defense. If we dont start playing at-least physical in the secondary, we're going to get killed. Eli Manning just killed us, its embarrassing

Love it when we blitz, it works.  Did we run any blitzes today?   If so, not enough to be noticeable.   Eli is easy to beat when you pressure him.  We are so conservative and you would think that would prevent the big play but we give up big plays constantly when we play conservative zone D.

If the other team's QB isn't dogshit, then we are probably letting the other team score 25+ against us most weeks.

Don't think the Giants are that bad. Their losses are the Jags, at Dallas, NO, and at Carolina. The back half of their schedule is much more manageable. I think they are a 6-10 or 7-9 team
