This defence is abysmal. Whether there are injuries or not, back ups & practice squad players should at least be able to make a tackle at this level of football. Dan Morgan said at the begin of the season that they wanted "dawgs". This defence has no dawgs, no mongrel. Just weak as piss.

The d-line is the main issue on defence. Not getting enough pressure on the QB & run defence is atrocious. The last few seasons, the o-line was the biggest weakness, now it's the d-line. To run the 3-4, you need a true 2 gap nose tackle, and this team doesn't have 1.

For a corner, yes, that's very slow.

I'm a traditional 4-3 defence guy & wasn't a fan of the 3-4 scheme at the beginning, but as the season went on & being a newly implemented scheme, they have really showed some promise. It's in the top half of defences in the league, even with so many injuries in the squad, merry-go-round of CB, not having Chinn on the field, and no "real" MLB. Shaq is not the answer at MLB & Luvu is showing an improvement over him, but it's not his natural position.

People on here have been saying for the last 7 weeks, "fire Reich" after every game. Some even longer. Reich's offense was garbage. O-line scheme, the signing of Miles Sanders, no production from wide receivers.

Bryce needs to sit the rest of the year, not only for the better of the team, but to get his head in the right place that he needs to earn the job. Right now, the pressure of being the no.1 overall, where he's trying not to make a mistake & either overthrowing or late with a pass, cause for a split second, he's overthinking the situation. Over, him PROVING doubters wrong & he has to play with trust & anticipation for his teammates, that's what goes missing, the mental aspect. But, he needs to sit & earn his roster spot

It was so embarrassing when they replayed him getting bullrushed on his backside. And I thought it couldn't get more embarrassing after 5 false starts in Seattle. He's definitely not living up to his draft status, let alone being drafted.

Playcalling has been terrible. Reich isn't calling anything aggressive until the end of the game cause they're behind.

I posted on YouTube on the decision to let Foreman go & the signing of Sanders. Sanders started 17 games last year for 1269 yds behind arguably the league best O-line & Foreman started 9 games for 914 yds. People were replying Sanders is a great signing. So far, he's been a bust.

The defence struggled as a whole unit. Brady & co have struggled all year, Brady especially, I've had him in my fantasy team this year & the biggest score he had was today, only scored more than 20 points once this year. But that aside, the d-line couldn't pressure him enough like every other team has this year to help our secondary out. I thought the o-line did ok. The play calling went away from the run, which all o-lineman pride themselves in doing.

You need to go back & watch it. They used a timeout anyway!

Thanks. For. Your. Input.

I was saying they should've challenged that play if they were going to take a timeout.

Shaq trying to shoulder Fournette instead of wrapping him up. Dunno where he learnt to tackle like that. Old habits die hard.

The d-line isn't getting enough pressure. Henderson still couldn't cover a fart in bed.

Need to stop being too cute with the offensive plays & either just run or pass, none of these trick type plays. Especially on 1st down. Gotta stick with the running game too.

Wouldn't it suck if it all came down to a coin toss for the division title & we loss?? I mean, if it was in another division, that would be quite interesting.

Henderson couldn't cover a grain of sand with a tin of paint. He is a liability in defence. No wonder Jacksonville gave him up so easily.

CJ Henderson needs to go. He couldn't cover a fart in bed.

Is this team taking valium before kick-off?? Both games so far this season, they've come out like they're just waking up, so flat, no energy.

I'm still perplexed that the Panthers haven't re-signed him. He was very instrumental in the defence being ranked 2nd in the league. I was even surprised that he wasn't a consideration for the pro bowl.

Andre Johnson over Steve Smith?? Please! Steve Smith was snubbed big time here. Smith is 1 of only 3 players in history to have the receiving triple crown. Total BS he didn't make the final cut.

Absolutely. The last time we ran the ball more than 30 times was against Atlanta, and we won. Joe Brady couldn't get away from passing the ball. All he had to do was run it. And against Atlanta, nobody complained about the O-line play. People actually praised how well they played. Every O-linemen has more fun running the ball. That's why Brady was shown the door.

Exactly right. Should've been done after the Miami game, giving the next OC 2 weeks to implement their scheme in.

It's because Joe Brady isn't an O-line or RBs coach, just a WR coach only by position. He knows nothing about about the trenches, but our WRs aren't producing either, which suggests he has poor knowledge about any part of the offense. An offensive coordinator needs to have an O-line scheme to not only run block, but to pass protect, with a million assignments for each position, for different defensive looks. Brady's offensive plan looks like, " it's either this way or no way". Which we seem to be going to nowadays.
