Message: [QUOTE="giddyup, post: 4741168, member: 11505"] Defense - How many games does it take to figure out you need to adjust your D after a QBs eats you alive? (Hint less than one). You have to expect your next opponent is going to key on your weaknesses and that’s what they did. They killed us up the middle both with QB runs and slants exploiting LBs that were way out of position. Our D line needs to stay disciplined in keep the QB contained. They are all so anxious to beat their man moving they are moving out of their lanes of responsibility and allowing massive holes to open up. Our tackles need to be using power rush moves to keep the QB in front of them not using speed techniques to get around a blocker at the expense of losing contain. Nobody gets their hands up on a pass. Nobody is teaching these guys to play as a unit. LBs - we are leaving the LBs on an island for fear of giving up the big play. So, they are left ciphering huge ground with no DB support. Our LBs are continually out of position because they are spread ridiculously. Safety and DBs - need serious work turning and funding the ball. I don’t see a lot route jumping. They are being coached to be minimally aggressive. Overall the D is starting to look like the D under RE… hesitant, risk intolerant, no gang tackling and afraid. We need a DC because Mora isn’t managing them very well. [/QUOTE]
