Secondary knows they are sucking buttholes.

This Fox team has been pretty good about staying closed-lipped to the media about its short comings. I'd like to keep it that way. It's much more effective to feed the media bullsh*t, boring PC answers in public and then kick their ass in private until things get fixed.

That's about as perfect a post as I have seen on here...

this is NFL football. Each unit is going to go up and down. A few weeks ago our run D couldn't stop anyone, some weeks the ground game struggles, some weeks the passing game is horrid, somedays special teams make or breaks us.......if you have a good team, other units step up when one is off.

They played well earlier this year, I think it is a scheme and communication problem. Lucas is still solid. No worries yet.....with this team I wouldn't be surprised if the pass D stepped up and T. Bell had a decent day. You never know what you are going to get w/ Carolina.

Nobody must be reading the entire article, it answers the debate over the nickname situation.

The Problems with coverage can be fix just like our slow start so I hope Fox&co can get it done defense is his thing and he is somewhat of a guru with DBs so lets hope he will turn it around

[panthers55]

My fear is it's in their heads now and they are going to press. They need to just relax and get back to basics. I wonder if Trgo is throwing more sh*t in the mix now versus his "Simplify the D" strategy from earlier this year?

Actually that might be the perfect solution. Use more press coverage and support the deep routes with safety support. With Denver lacking a good running attack why aren't we using more man under cover 1 or 2 or go nickle all day. Marshall, Lucas and Gamble are pretty solid against the run and both Harris and Godfrey can come up and give a good hit. Don't think we are losing much.

BTW I know what you were getting at, I was just using a play on your words.

Thats the Problem Lucas cant press because Godfrey looks to be still learning. Thats why you see him give such a big cushion to the CB so he can keep him in front of his and he dose not give up the big play. Pressing is not gonna keep us from getting burnt. Both times Lucas got bunt he Pressed Bryant. Gamble didn't have it gave Bryant an under route where he beat Gamble to the ball.

I don't expect perfection on every play from every player, every time. I just expect us to win the game, which we have 10 times out of 13. That's all I really care about...

What's the big concern? Has our secondary sucked all season? No you say? Well it must have the way everybody is pissing and moaning. Still no? Well, wouldn't it be fair to say that they will prolly get back to playing better then?

lol

I've said it once and I'll say it again...Lucas sucks, and Godfrey has been making a lot of mistakes in coverage. Bottom line, you don't see big plays happen on the side of the field Gamble and Harris are covering.

so? Do you believe they are incapable of fixing these problems?

[Smithers]

Godfrey is so young that anything can be fixed. Lucas has had only one good season with Carolina, and has been going downhill since. Fixing the problem is moving Lucas out of the starting role and letting Marshall take over. Marshall is better suited on the outside then against a slot receiver anyways.

If marlon mcree was younger, I would definitely be saying right now we shouldn't have let him go

Thats no diss to godfrey, it was just good chemistry when he was here

And both 50 yarders was on Lucas

[megadeth078]

How has anything that's happened this season warrants the use of Mcree's name on this forum again? This isn't 2006. We don't need to worry about average safeties saving this team.

Just like Jake name was bought up in D.Will thread

And I think you mean this isn't 2005
