Quit praising this guy, it's easy to look good when you have a talent and healthy defense

Let's relax on these takes. What do you want the man to do.. have the 85 Bears or 00 Ravens D for 20 straight games? Let's get realistic.

I thought we played pretty well considering all our guys we were down. Just needed to get some of those drives to field goals instead of TDs. 7 points were Jeff Wilson. D only gave up 21.

it's been 4 games that MECO's D been bailin us out, it's just a matter of time before these guys run in to a bad day..

Where was the help from the offense ??
I think that he did not show the ability to adjust. Today sucked. He could have been an OG and gone out with the storyline that he shut down the Falcons with backups. Instead they owned him on so many read options and looked foolish

Which games exactly had 7 defensive starters down and high level defensive play for 4 quarters?

Willis missed 10 games
Bowman missed the season
Aldon missed 9
Brock missed 13
Ian Williams missed 7
Ward missed 9

All season and they still ended up 10th scoring, 5th vs the pass, 7th vs the run. To answer your 7 starters for 4 quarters, look up both Seattle games that year

HOW obvious was it that our D was not at their best, the least KS10 coulda done was call for long drives .. but he did not know how to do that.. he was, as usual, trying to call plays w/o any tune..
I don't blame him or the defense when the offense can only score over 20 once in a blue moon.
The 3rd and 13 scramble broke their backs. You cannot run a blitz with T-E twists and let the QB literally run by your blitzers for a first
why do we always struggle with athletic QBs that can run/move
Well NOW THEY KNOW.

Put the backups in there on D due to injuries and you can't stop the run and give up 21+ points easily to a mediocre team. BACKUPS ARE BACKUPS in the NFL for a reason 🤣

Because the backups are playing.

You can't give up that many rushing yards and expect to win. But it's largely because of key injuries.

We do kind of. In a way.
Back ups fellas. It's really the arrogance of our fans that believes back ups were gonna walk through ATL

We drafted the rookie stud Borland that year because of the Bowman injury.

And we didn't go into both Seattle games down 7 defensive starters.

We did give up 28 and lost to a Jay Cutler led Chicago team with only two defensive starters out. Chicago was a 5 win in 2014. Why couldn't he stop Chicago with a mostly healthy D?

Jimmie Ward getting abused. I was at that game. We were down 6 starters, 2 all pros vs Seattle
