Defense

[ajcardfan]

Can anything be done with this defense?

We FINALLY get a sack, by that great pass rusher Ron McKinnon, and they just make a ridiculousy easy throw and catch on 3rd- and 15, with absolutely no one in Bulgers face, and Holt wide open.

I think we blitzed more today than we did in the first three games, and it just did nothing. We still seem to have no playmakers on that side of the ball.

As bad as the mistakes by the offense were, really, we never had a chance today with the way they abused our defense.

This thread should be titled "No Defense". Did the Rams even punt today? It sure didn't seem like it. They converted 3rd downs at will.

If the sign more less than a 4 to one FA Offensive vs defensive guys or draft one before the 4th round someone needs to lose their job.

As bad as the defense has played today they were only down by 10 untill the turnover.

The Defense was horrible in the first half but we were not out of it.

They def need some onr to rush the passer and disrupt the blocking on defense.

The margin of error is slight for this unit right now.

Let's give the offense their due. 0-8 on third down? Pitiful.

You're right, this was a horrendous team effort.

Even when we dropped 8 men back the Rams passed at will. they toyed with us with their running game on seemed to connect on every third down for whaterver yardage was neccessary. We were even still in the game because Bulger overthrew a wide-open Holt, so lets not even get too enthusiastic about the "comeback"
