so i dont see how coverage is soft. It seems to be only "soft" when we have a 2 score lead late in the game and want the opponent to run out the clock for us
It's been soft most of the season. It's why the DL numbers are down. As Smokey said the D has taken advantage of some bad defenses.

People will not be happy unless we're scoring 40+ PPG and allowing 7 PPG or less, and even then they'd find something to whine about lol. Sounds like most fans are annoyed if we don't win every game 35-0.

yup, if I had to guess based simply on the vibe of the thread, I would guess we are 28th in points allowed right now

Wilks is doing his thing. Can't complain about anything outside of those three games in which the entire team struggled

Yah I'll admit I was just focusing my frustration on him. We don't wanna blame Shanahan but he deserved some of the blame at the time.

Lets make a bet on Wilks, I say he's gone next year, and you say he stays, deal?
Because the #1 Defense couldn't possibly have better coaching.

You'd see something like that in film, not by citing statistics. We have feasted on some pretty terrible offenses this year so far and that can paint a statistical picture that isn't necessarily accurate to their capability.
If we have been feasted on by terrible offenses why have we allowed the fewest touchdowns in the nfl?

let's lay the ground rules
#1, if he gets promoted, I win the bet
#2, Saleh is DC, no one wins the bet, it's a draw

Sketchy bet IMO. I could see us standing pat even if the D doesn't perform at a level it should down the stretch and into the high stakes games.

If Saleh is DC by definition Waterbear is right.

Especially if one of the basis of your arguments is that we're at or near the top of the previous years' defenses based on ppg.

If Wilks is promoted to HC?
You absolutely win the bet.
And its only a draw with Saleh if they announce he's DC within a week of Wilks being let go.
