Game 3 2017: vs Los Angeles Rams (Post Game Observations)

How do we have 3 first round picks on the d-line and no rush? I'm confused....

Even with foster and Reid out, we still had 4 1st round picks out there in defense and give up 41.....

Over half of our starting defense are 1st rounders, if we allow more than 29 when we're all healthy.... I dunno, time to call Fangio?

Fire Saleh tonight. Get Fangio in the offseason.

If told me 39 pts I would've said GTFO

Saleh really needs to change his DB coaching technique...36 and 33 P.I. every single time. They just can't play like that.

Saleh needs to scheme a lot better in the secondary. He wants more turnovers but he's not putting his DB's in a position to capitalize on them.

DeFo and AA were drafted for their strength and length to play as 2 gappers. Solly is a tweener and either has to lose some weight or gain some weight. Both teams sprinkled in some no huddle to get these already tired players (Thursday game) more tired.

Thomas and AA had 1 tackle a piece

And sadly I think we had 3 pressures all game too.

Their OL is on par with Carolina. And our DL could do NOTHING.

D line was non exist.
Bowman continues to miss tackles
Hoyer is bad very bad
Top 3 pick next year
DB's are handies

I would have thought our last 3 #1 draft picks would have put more pressure on the QB, but maybe since they are interior lineman they are more focused on absorbing tackles to let the edge rushers and linebackers rush the QB? IDK. We do need a true pass rusher for sure as well as a true shutdown CB. In addition we need a franchise QB and no, I do not think CJ is it. I think we are a good two more quality offseasons away (free agency signings and drafts) from really competing for a division title and more. However, I knew this going into the season as I am more of a realistic fan then a idealistic/fantasy fan. Due to how messed up the Front Office was and how poorly Trent drafted, we were a true rebuild project by the time Klye and John came onboard, which is why they got 6 year deals. I know it sucks being 0-3, and yes we already know where this season is headed, but nonetheless, I am still honestly excited about our direction. The Front Office finally appears to be W/O drama and we have stability at the GM and coach position. Just a thought, but I bet we go after our former DC next offseason!! If we do, do we keep with the 3-4? Thoughts?

Solomon Thomas, the 3rd overall pick is a STUD!!! A centerpiece in which to build around!!!

Gotta admit, the above is tragic reading.

We should be getting a better return for the investment made on the defensive side.

What is a sack?

I noticed that as well...which is bad for us because there's a big substitution of base vs. nickel players in terms on skill sets.

I really like the offensive personnel the Rams have. I'd trade with them right now. Disclaimer:I was a Jared Goff guy

Yeah that's rational. Rookies at the 2 most prominent coaching positions. They will have mistakes.
