We Need Our Defense To Score

Since it's clear our offense still needs time to gel and adjust (and find out what the endzone is and how to get there), I think this defense (and special teams) needs to score at least 21 points combined to give us a chance to win. That's sad, we need our defense to be our offense. Anyone else feeling this way?

should just line up beason at qb, hardy at te, godfrey and pugh at wr (hey, they can catch even if they can't cover!)

Gamble's shown us too many times why he is a CB and not a WR so he can stick on the side of the ball where not catching the ball isn't a big deal.

there was one very interesting play today.

We punted at the end of the third/fourth from the middle of the field on 4th and 6.

The Punt was downed inside the ten.

The Bears had a penalty on the kick which would have brought it to 4th and 1. At that point in the game, the obvious choice is to take the penalty and go for it.

However, beason was emphatically waving to decline it. It's like he knew the offense couldn't do anything.

NO....

We need our fuging offense to score, that's what they get paid to do.

That SHOULD be a lot easier when the defense gives them 4 INTS and gets turnovers like they have been.

But no, the dreaded Fox/Davidson combo could even ruin the 99-01 Rams offense.

      Who is going to take a shot at Malik Willis

      By cranky · Posted

      So Willis had a good game against a poor defense and all of a sudden he is worth 50 million and is guaranteed to be better than Young. LOL I know he looked good in the 3 games he started, and I think he will have success long term, but anyone signing him up for a long term contract for 50 million is taking a huge risk.

      Is he really though? Rivera was past his prime and probably shouldn't have even started 2019 so his firing wasn't really unexpected or unwarranted. Rhule lasted two and a half years which was about one year too long in my opinion. Bringing him back that third year certainly wasn't impulsive and I would say Tepper was more patient than he should have been. Wilks finished out that third season and did pretty good but most everyone could see he really wasn't anything more than an intern HC. Bringing him back was not the long term answer so not bringing him back was the correct call. Hiring Reich was a mistake from the beginning and he recognized that fairly quickly. I am sure he knew he was going to catch a lot of sh*t for firing him so quickly ( and boy did he ) but it was absolutely the right thing to do given everything that was going on. The firing may have looked impulsive, but I think it was him recognizing he had royally f*ck up and just dealt with it instead of letting it fester.  That brings us to Canales. 2025 was only his second season and yet he delivered 8 wins and the NFC South title. And while that might not sound great, given the lack of talent and cap space they started with, it's a strong step in the right direction. I couldn't imagine Tepper not being pleased with their progress given the crap the Panthers' have been though under his ownership.
