The reason I think our secondary gets beaten by short routes..

You know what's funny, this pass defense is built to "not get beat" but we're pretty average at stopping the big play compared to the rest of the league. And we've pretty much always been that way as long as this defense has been installed.

I think that too, some of that definitely has to do with not tackling all of a sudden.

It appears to me that they started wanting to go for the big hit instead of tackling properly.

Must be an sub conscious thing between the defense; it's well known they all push each other and have great competitiveness, but it may be unknowingly causing them to do things they feel are extra or better than each other.

Like trying to one up a hit or a play someone else made.

Then again it could have just been something added to the defense after the bye that has everyone garfunkled.

We gave up a cancer and got a rookie player for much less money.

Harris we gave up a 5th I think, and has played well in a more traditional SS role.

We do not have great safeties, we have good safeties, which makes our great corners, a little closer to the good mark. Couple that with inconsistant pass rush, and voila, you have what most call bad corners.

You show me an attacking D, and I will show you a really good Safety.

Exhibit A: The Baltimore Raven Defense & Ed Reed.

At least we have a terrific LB corps.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
