Phil Snow's Defense


PantherPhann89

Recommended Posts

has too many holes: receivers are constantly making catches in open pockets with 3-4 defenders around them and neither one then breaks on the ball. Are we purposely playing safe to not get beat overtop?

to much inconsistencies: our pressure is too erratic. Granted Brees gets the ball out quick but we can't show our hand before the snap. 

gives too much cushion: why were we giving backup receivers that much respect. We should've played more man on receivers & Kamara

I don't think we're missing a player on defense. I think we're missing coaching!

The Defense doesn't seem to have a goal of making stops... The goal seems to be allowing a death by a thousand cuts and hoping for a turnover here and there.

yeah I agree, seems to be a bend don't break mentality. But that didn't fit Rhule's style to me.

I think Snow is fine.  He's trying to hide our deficiencies, and there are a lot of them.  Name the guys you can depend on on defense...  I can only come up with Burns, Brown, and Chinn.  Everyone else is a question mark.  It's tough to play defense like that, especially on the backend.  And you play zone when your guys can't play man or consistently get pressure.  We don't have the personnel to man up.

Thank you.

I'm not Hugh on Phil Snow's support list but I wouldn't say he suck, I'd say he's being too safe. But that could be because he don't trust the players. 

The players he has aren’t the best. He probably trust 3 players total on this defense. If that. And two are Rookies. It’s hard to trust complete garbage to not be complete garbage. Somehow, he’s made chicken salad out of chicken poo so far.

    • It really is insane how they always try to rig the game vs Dallas. Two exceptions being our playoff games.    Had we lost it definitely would have been right up there with the 2014 Playoffs vs 49ers, Dallas 05, Saints 2018 Playoffs, and SB50 as all time rigged games. 
    • Say you don't understand PFF without saying you don't understand PFF... Every week seems like some of the same people are complaining about something they clearly don't understand.  I'm not saying they are the end all resource out there but once you understand their methodology you can start to appreciate some of their work. For example, their grading system isn't a high school grading system, try to look at some of it in relative terms.  Rico had an 82 rushing grade, that's pretty good.  I would be curious to know how that compares to every other running back this past weekend. Also, I think he had a few penalties, which if I'm not mistaken are graded pretty harshly.      
    • Can we go back to square one for a minute and remember what we paid for this guy and how he was sold?  He was like, the anti excuse. Makes everybody better, Did we get that?  I think the answer is still coming but so far you might can say that for a game or two.  Cam had issues with personnel every season almost. Horrible OL, but he had receivers. Decent to good OL no receivers. Etc. Bryce needs to stand up, or keep standing up, however you want to put it. It is big boy time in year 3. He doesn’t have to make the playoffs but there is a standard. We’ll see what happens.  But the excuses are just fuging tired.  ps, I mean let’s not crown him when he has franchise record production in two wins,.. let’s see when they stop that, how he does then.
