From what I'm hearing, DC is making it way too complex trying to put his own stamp on things instead of doing what worked in the previous years. He's not ready to call plays.

What do you do now? Both starters are probably out this week and one may be done for the season. I’m willing to bet you won’t see a big drop off, if any at all. The corners are only going to be as good as the pressure being put on the quarterback. Remember two years ago when everyone was saying...

Most of the game they were in zone, not man.

I agree 110%. Everyone keeps saying our CBs are bad, but I completely disagree. When you are running zone, which we did for most of this game, the corners are either responsible for the flats or the deep thirds. In this game we were clearly in Cover 2, which usually puts the corners in the flats...

I blame the DC more than the players. The schemes game to game is horrible. Why did we come out playing cover 2? Even after getting beat constantly, we stayed in it. I just don't think DC is ready.

Young team!

The worst thing any athlete could ever do.

Word is it's a quad injury that he hurt during practice and re-injured in the game.

There are many factors that go into hamstring injuries. What a lot of people do not know is the glutes play a major role in those injuries. Those muscles must act as a key factor in preventing strains. If the glutes are tight, you are more prone to pulling or even tearing your hamstring...

You're right but it's way deeper than a good stretch. Because he's had this issue multiple times the unfortunate part is it's going to keep happening unless he takes care of his body. It's certain muscles that has to be worked on daily for the rest of his playing career in order to prevent it...

Whoever is responsible for making sure the players stretch properly is responsible for this. We've had way too many players out with soft tissue injuries. DT has basically had the same injury every time he's been hurt.

I mentioned this earlier in the thread it was always about the scheme. A lot of people kept harping on talent and criticizing certain positions. I’m not saying we can’t improve talent wise, but great schemes like we saw last night can mask some of those flaws. We dominated that game with players...

Who was out that mattered?

I agree with Gopherchase, it wouldn't have mattered. The score would have probably been the same or similar. Either way, we weren't going to win. I believe our biggest flaw is our DC play calling. I like Collins but the inexperience flaws are showing. I'm not sure if he's the guy or not but...

Agree with most of what you said but the DL IMO is not the same. Last year DL was better than this years team. If a team needs 1 yard to get the 1st down it's damn near automatic on this years team. The CB room is obvious but I really like the talent we have in Nestor, Gerald, and Parrish. But...
