Run Defense is historically bad

Why is Evero the only one n the building that gets a pass for his contributions?  The defense flat out sucks.  Yes guys are hurt, but that’s the job.  Every team has injuries every year and we’re at the point where every single team ever has been better on the defensive side of the ball.

It takes more than injury to accomplish that feat.

I'm not giving him a pass per se, but it's hard to run an effective 3-4 without a legit NT. We've never had the personnel to run that scheme effectively, but it is his defense and he's responsible partly for how they have played and his schemes. Can't blame him for injuries or lack of the right players to fit the 3-4, but that soft, prevent D is all his to own.

Because they absolutely gutted his unit to prop up Young and then he's had injuries to compound things.

3-4 doesn't necessarily have to go. That's just reactionary. The leagues top defenses are dominated by the 3-4.

Dominated? I swear y'all just make poo up on here. 

Eagles: 3-4

Titans: 3-4

49ers: 4-3

Texans: 4-3

Chiefs: 4-3

Dolphins: 3-4

Jets: 4-3

Broncos: 3-4

Steelers: 3-4

Packers: 4-3

Commanders: 4-3

Raiders: 4-3

Lions: 4-3

The injury excuse is starting to wear thin with me. They’ve lost a couple marquee names but not a long list of them. They shouldn’t be historic levels of bad. 
 

a number of vets are having the worst season of their careers here

    • Funny, because I think it's monumentally stupid to go in as a WR and not CB for him for two main reasons. First is that he's very slender, he has a much better chance at having a longer career as a CB than a WR because of that, and if he can't stay healthy as a WR, he's never going to get the huge contracts and play 10 years in the league like he could on the other side of the ball. The second and more important, is that CB is so much more difficult of a position to play at an elite level, you can't keep dipping your toe in and out of the water on that end and expect to be great. So if he's a full time WR, it will be really hard for him to play any CB part time and be successful at it and make it worth their while to let him to continue doing.  But if he's a full time CB, it's much easier for them to have a few select packages on offense to where he gets maybe 10 snaps a game, half as a decoy, half getting the ball in creative ways to get him space to work in and make a big play here or there. Because also if that works while being an all pro caliber CB, he'll get paid so much more than any CB due to what else he offers, which then would probably rival top WR money, but have the chance at a much longer career while doing so. He's also just a better CB than he is WR, so why go full time at your weaker position that is easier to do part time and still have success?
    • Why sign him for him to play 2-3 games before another trip to IR  
    • This game would be 4-1 at worst with Freddie
