Officially The Worst Defense in NFL History


Recommended Posts

I fuging hope not. Injuries are bad but the defense has been historically incompetent. You cant just assume we won't have key defensive injuries next year.

Some of it is talent, but at some point, if you're getting dog walked defensively every game. It comes down to coaching when you're players are constantly playing 20 yards off their man and not tackling . You don't have to be talented to do fundamental things correctly on defense.

Injuries are a cop out.

we had Everyone healthy week 1

and the Saints scored on every possession not punting until the 4th quarter when they pulled the starters

 

this defense is just booty cheeks

I want us to keep Evero, I feel like we gave him a horrible foundation, and then it became full of injuries. Along with a historically bad offense that couldn't keep them off the field at one point...

But lately something about the fact that it's the worst in HISTORY makes me feel like the coach has to take some accountability. In franchise history cool...but NFL HISTORY??

We're light on talent and heavy on injuries but the dude just hasn't impressed me. At all.

Listening to a podcast and a point they brought up is that if the team is literally historically bad you can't keep Evero. There have been bad defense and beat up defenses and defensive coordinators made it work. Heck the 2009 Saints won a Super Bowl with a terrible defense, ranked 25th. Lions are beat up to heck and making it work, helps having an unstoppable offense.

On the season, yeah. But imagine being the Falcons. You're playing for your playoff lives and two weeks in a row you lose in OT without your offense having a possession. That is ROUGH. LOL

Good. I saw the empty red seats, and that team was playing for their playoff lives. Send it to Canada like their NHL team.

Tell that to our players.

How the fug did Robinson beat 3 players round the edge for their final TD?

    • I mean I just don't understand the argument. Baker and Sam both have been pro bowl QBs post their time here. And you just said yourself that is due to him having a damn good roster around him and they are well coached. You're even saying the bad baker is still there somewhere, but he is in a good organization with good roster and coaching that they are getting the best out of him. Why does Baker and Sam get all that benefit of the doubt but when it comes to Bryce it must be a BY9 problem, not an org or team problem?  Hell I got a guy below you arguing with me that Chark/Hurst/Mingo sucked because Bryce wouldn't throw them open. It's ridiculous how far the stretch goes. 
    • Correct.  It’s really hard to get open in the NFL when opposing defenses gameplan and cheat coverage/routes on all your players because they know your QB can’t make certain throws/plays.   magically no one that comes to Carolina can get open or make plays with the ball in their hands…..it’s like there is one singular common dominator to it all.  BY makes playing defense way too easy.   NFL players are too good to allow one side to cheat coverage and not respect all the potential threats of a route  so you can dial up a great play.  But if corners and safeties just cheat coverage and know X and Y happening on route/threats….getting open gets hard when they just play it one way.  Getting open has a lot to do with the different threats a WR can pose on a given play.  
    • Kinda depends how you look at it both were 3rd round draft pics.  Nico was nothing before stroud and tank came in with stroud.  If both were on the panthers would young have them doing well and starting or would their stats be low.  I really dont know the answer to that.  None of the panthers wrs have left and did well either but personally i feel neither of nico or tank would do much on the panthers.
