People, stop blaming the offense, blame the DEFENSE

Well, as almost every other thread has stated, "Jake needs to go, Fox needs to go, Davidson needs to go!!!!"

REally, Turg needs to go. I dont see how you can put ALL the blame on the offense for the meltdown, even though much of it is deserved. When you have a defense that had been lacking ever since our bye week earlier in the season, its really apparent that the defense is the problem. Have you noticed that before the bye we were in the top 5 overall defense? Now i dont even keep up with that stat, because I know we have fallen dramatically.

But that leads me to another question, "How the heck did we end up 12-4?" O yea, i almost forgot, we have the Mr. Comeback on our team (delhomme), and the best RB duo in the league. We all know that Jake to Smith is one of the best, if not the best, connection in the league. Sure the offense didnt do sh*t last night, but please, please dont put ALL the blame on them.

ONE MORE TIME - "FIRE THAT BUM TURG BEFORE I GO COMMANDO ON HIM"

They are just as bad too. However, last night the defense DID make a few stops and the offense just sucked. If the offense could have put some points up or at least ran some time down, the defense wouldn't have had to stay on the field for 80% of the game time. They got tired, simple as that.

Hmmmm....... How many games did the Offense WIN us this season compared to the defense???

BIG DIFFERENCE

as bad as the first half was the defense responded and showed up in the 2nd half. if we had scored on beasons int then its 27-14, then after another stop delhomme throws a pick inside the 20. scoring there would have made it 30-21 with about 13 to go in the 4th. you never know what could have happened but opportunities were certainly there in the 2nd half created by the defense.

Look, before you go all Mr. Super Fan postal on the board, we were talking about THIS game, you know, the one from last night?

This thread was actually talking about more of ppl wanting Jake, Fox, and Davidson to get out of carolina, but yes, last nights game is just as important, lets not get over our heads now, stay cool:cool:

I hate that the offense forgot to cover larry fitzgerald

Delhomme turned the ball over SIX times. Five of them were completely on him. Those turnovers spotted the Cards 23 points. Any time we'd try to get anything going, he'd give the ball back. Several times in the red zone, which is a killer.

We can moan all we want about playcalling and the Defense, but Delhomme broke the teams back before halftime. If you really expect a defense to hold the Cards under 12 points when the offense gives the ball away that many times, I don't know what to tell you.

With that performance, we could have played Detroit last night and gotten thumped by 20.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Where did I once say we should draft him because he's a projected Top 5 pick?   That's one of my many problems with you, your reading comprehension skills are very poor (and/or you just don't care to use your brain, one of the two).  I solely used that to point out that me pushing T-Mac isn't some absurd homerism, that at least I'm pushing someone who is deserving of a Top 5 draft pick. And despite me explaining it to you numerous times, you still seem to not grasp how QB's get placed in mock drafts vs draft grades.  They are treated entirely different in mock drafts to any other position, because of how teams generally treat them in the draft because of how important the position is. Literally any other position except QB, mock drafts generally follow draft grades with some team needs factored in.  But with QB's, draft grades are generally disregarded and they ALWAYS put a few QB's at the very top of the draft, because that's just usually what happens.  The exact same thing happened in 2022 with guys like Pickett and Willis widely being Top 10 picks in mock drafts, only for Pickett to fall to what, around 20?, and Willis going in the 2nd round (and even being the 3rd QB if I remember correctly too). The overwhelming majority of draft experts are saying there isn't a high first round grade on these QB's, but they still get mocked there because they're trying to predict how the draft will actually go. That's been my point the entire time, reaching for a QB in a bad QB draft when you have a roster as depleted of talent as ours, does not tend to work out well. And I've never said I'm not open to other players, I've very explicitly said that if a QB or DE stands out come draft time, I'm open to that discussion.  That I'd be open to Hunter as a CB but I prefer a WR over a CB at the top of the draft.  But we're also not talking about the 15th pick here where there could realistically be all sorts of possible picks to discuss.  With the first pick, there really would only be a small handful of options, T-Mac is head and shoulders above any other given our current roster and state of the franchise in general.

      TMac is good, but he isn't pick 1 on a WR good.  Last year he would be below Nabers and Williams.  This year you could argue Hunter is the better WR.  WR at 1 better be a Calvin Johnson not a WR that disappears some games in college...

      So because he's a projected top 5 pick he's should be the guy we draft.   Yet you say the other 2 QBs who are projected top 5 picks are not worth it because you think they aren't that good.   That's my problem with you. You just seem to only care about Tmac. I have yet to see you suggest anyone outside of Tmac. At least I'm open to other prospects.
