Listen to Bosa. Saleh and DeMeco built their front around getting Nick Bosa 2-way goes with 1-on-1 as much as possible. One of Bosa's greatest strengths is his ability to win all three planes of rushing--Wilks has negated that with the weird s**t he's doing(ie 5 DL/blitzing).

He's either tired, sad, or fed up with this bs. Kyle needs to step in and not give Wilkes free reign on the gameplanning. Wilkes trying to reinvent the wheel when all he had to do was continue the drive.

He always sounds like that though.

He sounds like he's lost in Wilkes defensive schemes. I think he's sending a subluminal message to Kyle that is saying you F ed up in Hiring Wilkes.

The best coaches adapt their style to their players strengths instead of forcing guys to do things they aren't that great at. Wilks might be one of those idiots who has his own system he sticks to it and tries to ram the square peg into a round hole.
Is it me or Bosa is just trying to bull-rush the tackle almost all the time.

Good observation because that's what I'm alluding to above. That's exactly what Wilks is forcing Bosa to do with the blitzing and 5-man DL stuff. He's basically throwing all the speed and counter stuff out the window by forcing Bosa to rush in one lane. DeMeco and Saleh would always be looking to get Bosa 1-on-1s and give him the freedom to attack in any way he wanted. He can't do that the handcuffs that Wilks is putting on him.

That kind of thing will get you fired. If Bosa continues looking pedestrian and the defense keeps surrendering long drives, Wilks will be out.

Good points and I do hope Wilks will be out soon if this bs continues. The players deserve better. Ain't nobody got time for that lol
Every time Wilks would call a stunt the Vikings left the back inside to block it. The back literally would just beeline to the B gap to wait for Bosa. Didn't even care about any outside thread. And Bosa would just run into a trip team.

Wilks was good the first 5 weeks but teams learned his tendencies and patterns. I think that's why he got so shook that he sent an all out blitz at the end of the second half, but even that wasn't an all out blitz as he left Huf to spy. Spy???? Spy who??? The running threat that is cousins. Just freaking terrible coach. If we lose to cinci because of how the defense is playing he better be gone ASAP.

I still think the D might miss having the DC on the sidelines urging them on and giving them encouragement when they come off the field.

So we doing Bosaexcuses now? We rush 4 guys a lot, that's 4 guys and Bosa is getting easily handled by the opponents weakest OT, since that is where he lines up looking for an advantage. He is getting blocked by TEs which should never happen either.

in his last 12 games played, Nick Bosa has 3.5 sacks, yes that includes 5 games where Demeco Ryans was the DC. The fact that Drake Jackson still has more sacks than the highest paid defensive player in history is a felony. I mean Myles Garrett who plays in this same defensive style and has 7.5 sacks in 6 games this season without the big names on defense to help him like Bosa.

Nick looks stiff and slow. I watched this past game and saw more attention given to Randy Gregory than Bosa which is hard to believe, but it happened.

If that's true then we were never going to win with this group. It's not middle school.
Man, IF Bosa can just husssshhhhh and get to the QB ... he got paid already.. now do the job and for sure, no completion will happen..

Bosa has valid points in terms of pass rushing with the 5 man d line. But outside of those reps he's needs to step it up. He's getting blocked by tight ends and right tackles we've never heard of. And he seems to now be a RDE. I don't see him much on the left side if at all.
