Lucas gets burnt just as easily as everyone else in the secondary. Unless it is a quick throw to Gamble (where he got his recent hype), Gamble gets abused just as easily. The DL and pass rush was a concern going in this year.......and it is showing in our secondary play. The scheme also doesn't help. A huge cushion given to WR w/ plenty of time to run and get open........how do you expect anybody to cover them.

Lucas has a neck injury that is hurting his abilty to tackle. As far as coverage goes, the problem is more a lack of pressure from our d-line, than Lucas. Lewis can't push into the middle of the pocket for poo, that's why QB's just step up to avoid pressure from Peppers. The problem is Lewis. God I wish Jenkins would have kept his big mouth shut.

lucas isn't playing well but we don't get very much pressure which really does not help our secondary at all

Lucas will not be replaced by marshall, i say this over and over again but nobody gets it, marshall plays the slot, he'll play that no matter what is going on

Lucas has not played up to his contract this year, but he will not be cut, i hope he gets a deal restructured if we keep him because we have alot of other guys who deserve the money more than he does

if we draft a CB then it will need to be another bigger guy who can help in run support and cover the larger recievers, marshall is too small to be an everydown player in this defense, he's good for his size but alot of bigger recievers can get the best of him

I don't know how this problem will be fixed other than lucas just playing better, if we get more pressure though this problem will be alot less obvious

    • This is from 5 months ago. It was one or the other. Trade for one or draft one. We apparently called the Jets about Wilson. We also talked to the Seahawks about Metcalf. Drafting our own guy was the best course of action given the required investment. Regardless now is the time for Bryce Young to produce. We are fourth amongst all teams in cap spending on the OL. Back to back first round picks at WR and multiple young TE draft picks now. Very solid and respectable backfield. New pieces across the defense. The time is now.
    • That was just the worst time to have their worst game of the season. One key deal was the broncos guess the Panthers would NOT change any plays or flow to the game. Another key point overlook that bronco defense was truly one of the best in the NFL history. It was the best defense the Panthers faced that year, by far. They were not ready for it, but broncos were ready for the Panthers. Mix in that bad luck, poor refs showcase, and this is the golden boys last game........ Panthers needed to win by 20 and the broncos defense was not going to allow that.  Panthers were the faviotes and I believe they also thought that it was going to easier than them destorying NFC playoff teams as they marched to the SB. I've heard darin Gantt say the play calls were to give remmers help, but for some reason the team never did it. During the year they never had that problem, so maybe never practiced giving help via TE/RB, or WR chip. Cam was superman that year, no need for any adjustments...... Until you meet a legendary defense with studs at all levels, Think about it, Peyton was throwing wingless dunks for the whole season, the defense had to carry his corpse to the SB. That's how good they were, no many defense are able to get to the playoffs and win a SB without decent QB play. If you recall the beginning of that denfese took Tim Teblows and his non-throwing arse to the playoffs couple years before. That's insane the level of defense needed to overcome.   
    • Who cares if he paid for such small benefits out of his own pocket? The NCAA is a joke. They need to be offering such anyway, especially for Uber rides (which actually seems like a good idea).
