Eric Reid and Tre Boston are soft

Why does Eric Reid deserve your ire but not the guy turning the ball over?

Probably because there are currently 3 threads about Kyle Allen sucking and there wasn’t one about our safeties whiffing on tackles on almost every single play...

Not seeing why you would even say this unless you are implying racism. Reid can be criticized for his inability to tackle today without it being a calculated racist remark.

This is nothing new though. Our defense has been getting abused on the regular under Ron Rivera the last few years. You forgot about the blowout losses against Pittsburgh and San Fran already? Not just any losses mind you. Franchise record blowouts.

People have been saying for years that it's time to bring in an offensive mind living in this decade and to move on from the dinosaurs.

I agree but that has literally nothing to do with your last statement. In fact it just reinforces what the OP said... so I’m not following your point whatsoever

OP doesn't care about winning. He only shows up to huff and puff when a player he doesn't like underperforms. We aren't winning with defense anymore and people need to accept those days are gone for the time being. We are losing because we are getting dumped on and we can't respond back. We are not without talent on either side of the ball. This is truthfully a bottom ranked offense without CMC having a career year. Again. We need an infusion of coaching ingenuity, or at least someone that actually understands what adjustments are and how they work.

That's all I can offer for you, if you want to keep going to bat for shitposters like Growl who just don't like Reid, go for it.

James Bradberry is probably about the only guy we've got in the secondary who's a decent tackler right now.

Reid and Boston are bad, but if I was going to call out the worst of the bunch, I probably would have mentioned Donte Jackson over Boston.

That’s right and when he is out our D becomes soft.

    • Evero to the Raiders makes zero sense unless the OC he's pitching them is a failed HC who doesn't have interest in trying for it again. They're a team about to draft a QB #1 overall, developing him is job #1 for the new coach/staff.  Hiring a DC with a young up and coming OC wouldn't make any sense, because then you risk losing that OC to a HC job after maybe just a year or two and that young QB has to change system, play caller, etc. It's why hiring an offensive minded coach makes the only sense.  The Raiders have to make the right hire/pick with this HC hire and #1 pick combo because of that division they're in, it's a gauntlet and you can't screw up this opportunity.  
    • 1. Sadly, it's just too early to tell with Icky. And the draft will have come and gone before we have anything, FA, too probably. Njiman was good, but there's dollars to be invested there as well. This is really our biggest puzzle to figure out. And Moton on the other flank is getting long in the tooth, too.  2. Coker: Pay the man WR2 money.  3. Most WRs take three years before you really know what you've got. We'll know for sure by the end of this one and he's still on a relatively inexpensive rookie contract. Now if someone comes calling for a good, good trade... 4. This is the make or break for good teams vs bad teams. And depth development is essential. We've had a bit of that but there isn't a spot on our line that doesn't have worries except for maybe on guard.  5. I think you draft the best ILB, the smartest one in the first round and don't look back. People lost their poo here on this board when we "wasted" a pick on Luke Kuechly.  6. Yeah, I think Chuba is a workhorse. But we need to be more decisive in his use. Still not sure Rico doesn't come back next season, too. He'll get to see the marketplace first, though, and we'll offer similar numbers to him.  
    • I've grown to enjoy Mike & Tripp, even more so after listening to the ESPN, TNT, TBS hacks who, for whatever reason, seemingly don't know dick about the Canes.
