Yeah they’re gonna have to continue to trim some fat over there on defense.

The overpriced players in the secondary all have to go. Diggs, Hooker, Wilson.

Not sure any of the FA additions at LB or DL are worth a damn either .

Pay him. He’s proven that he’s worth it.
I’d let him go and collect the 3rd we’re bound to get. He’s not going to bring any more wins with all the holes we have.

They aren't, but we kind of knew that before. Bargain bin shopping and all that

FA right now or in offseason?

FA right now - spags rule and junk on the streets.

Offseason - we dont pay for them and the ones that we can "afford" are the ones that play like crap now.

Basically its just the draft. 6 picks or such to figure it out.

IMO… the defense is completely lost in Elberfuck’s system …. We get zero pressure, ran on at will, communicate like shit and give up chunks of yds and points… it’s truly a sad state this defense is in ..

He's a fucking nobody that we made look good because our defense is one of the absolute worst in franchise history.
Their playcalling was such predictable bullshit and they still ripped off an easy 7-8 yards almost every time they ran on first down.

There was one TD drive where I believe they only passed once, for about 3 yards, and ran about 7 times for around 60 yards.

That's how I know the issue is predominantly scheme/coaching, they aren't able to stop anything and what they give up is basically just a function of teams picking and choosing how they're going to attack.

It's absolutely one of the worst defenses I've ever seen here. Last year you could see little signs of improvement around this time (weeks 5-8ish), this year they seem to be regressing if anything.
