Our Defense Is Good

The defense has been a mixed bag. With the exception of the Giants game, they have kept the opponents score down to a level where a decent offense has a shot at winning. But they are also giving up quite a few yards. A few more three and outs and they will not have to spend so much time on the field.

well, generally when they have generated a turnover or forced a 3 and out....the offense either turns it right back over or goes 3 and out.

Our defense will NOT stay good if they are on the field like that game in and game out. They will wear down, and injury becomes more likely. I remember our defense wasn't that bad during the 1-15 season, but they just flat wore out. Our offense has to staep up. We can win close games, but the '3 and outs' are the key. If we can cut down on them, our defense might be in position to be a game winner. We are getting our fair share of turnovers, some of them are likely to break for a score at some time.

lots of missed INT opportunities. lack of stopping 3rd down conversions...the fact that they were on the field for 82 plays and couldn't get themselves off the field...these are all problems.

i do like that they were able to contain the points but they aren't dominating. the offense needs to help them out for sure by being able to stay on the field but the defense needs to be doing better at getting themselves off the field as well.

      Canales is holding us back

      I don't think Dave touches the defense. That might be a mark against him but definitely a huge red flag for evero. He refuses to run anything other than soft zone and when you don't get pressure that's an awful scheme

      You don't have to convince me. I think not picking up the option should absolutely be firmly on the table but I just do not see Tepper and Morgan doing that for previously stated reasons. Therefore I'm not going to bother entertaining the notion. Just hoping we actually get real viable competition. If that doesn't happen at the minimum then my perception of that is complete and utter professional malpractice.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By Bama Panther · Posted

      It was absolutely a catch, and I can’t believe how many folks were stating, before the NFL’s apology, that the overturn was the right call.  The ultimate question in this case is this: can a player complete a catch with only one hand? Of course, we all know the answer to that question, and it is an emphatic “Yes.” T-Mac maintained complete control with one hand (believe it was the right) while the other came off when the ball hit the ground. The ball was in the same position in the one hand (watch T-Mac’s fingers in relation to the NFL shield on the ball) after touching the ground as it was when it first went to the ground. Going back to the question above, if one hand can establish control, then there was no need for the other to stay on the ball, so long as the ball doesn’t move in that one hand that stays on it   It blew my mind that they overturned this in the first place. This should not be a “We got it wrong on the replay because there wasn’t clear and convincing evidence.” This should have been, “That was absolutely a catch.”
