The worst defense in the NFL

Our defense cannot be considered a professional football defense. Back ups or not, they should at least qualify as NFL talent and they don’t. Injuries happen but this is some next level bullshit. fug Evero and his so called defensive unit that plays like homeless ass. 

I mean it's the least talented defense this franchise has ever fielded and that is if we were at full strength with no injuries. Did you think that would get better starting former Home Depot stockers from the PS?

Nope, but what we’re seeing on the field isn’t an accident, it’s years of methodical fugery that won’t end anytime soon. My ire is directed at the F.O. that created this shitshow, not the players that should be at Home Depot.

Oh absolutely. None of these guys created this scenario. Bryce didn't trade for himself. TMJ/Mingo/XL didn't over draft themselves. Miles Sanders didn't sign himself to an absolute goofy amount of money.

This is what bad ownership looks like. It isn't even remotely unprecedented. There are ample examples of what we are going through in the past 25+ years from the NFL, NBA, NHL, and MLB. 

Bad owners hire bad management, who hire bad evaluators and all of them hire bad coaches and/or bad talent. 

This is what this was supposed to look like.

Between the injuries and the JAG's they have playing, this has got to be the worst bunch they have ever had.

Totally unable to stop any thing and just flopping around missing tackles with zero pass rush.

After watching this team for 20 plus years, I can honestly say this is the worst I have seen. They should go full defense in the draft regardless of any other needs.

No matter who the QB is, they can't win with this defense.

No... We need to draft BPA - hopefully our front office can actually assess talent this go around. There honestly isn't 1 position I would say we are strong at outside of maybe RB if Brooks looks good. Maybe oline, but it never hurts to have oline depth.

We need to stop taking the philosophy of only draft XXX positions when we are like 3 very good drafts away from being mediocre. Just start building talent for when our next QB is drafted/ready to play.

Donte Jackson just got an INT against the Cowboys as I was typing that lol. 

And Donte was covering CeeDee Lamb when he got the pick for the Steelers.

All these former Panthers excelling when they leave makes you think…

And Frankie Luvu left Carolina for less money to play in a better system?  lol the Commanders were the 32nd best defense last year.

We knew about Luvu better than anyone. Can't make him do what you want him to do, if he isn't onboard with it. Should we have hired Quinn to keep him happy? 

Maybe so. But that wasn't happening.

 

edit: I am removed from it now but wasn't a big thing with Jackson, that he wasn't reliable to be playing a full season? 

Horn had the same concerns and we were locked in there, did you want to double down? I think that was a legit question.

But the bottom line is he went for another piece for Bryce. Theme of the last two years.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
