TOP only matters if we can stop them. If they score every time we give them the ball, it doesn't matter how long our offense is on the field. Esp if we put up a giant goose egg in a half.

It's kinda obvious the players have never bought into JDR's defense. It shows.

True. Some of these guys weren't even born the last time a JDR type defense was relevant.

Well in JDRs defense if we had 2022 version of Ray Lewis, Jamie Shaper, Peter Boulware our defense would be relevant too

On a positive it looks like they hit in Dotson. He looks like a future star. I remember him abusing Maryland last year and wondering if he was that good or was MD that bad. He is that good. He plays bigger than his size. Great leaping ability, great hands, great balls skills. The sky looks like the limit for him.

Yeah he’s got 3 Tds already this season. He’s a stud

Flowers and Martinez are still out there…. Not to overreact but sheesh.

A good friend who’s a long suffering Lions fan reached out to console me. That really says it all.

We should have fired JDR and brought in Vic Fangio

Agree. Don't over think it, hire Fangio.

At this point, give Wade a call.

Won't happen though. Rivera is a defensive guy and wouldn't bring in another credible guy to fix it from the outside.

They have to know how bad it is, wonder how much autonomy JDR actually has running the defense. If it's his show, firing him maybe a solution. If he is following Ron's orders, then firing him wouldn't make any difference with Ron still calling the shots.

Really curious about JDR roasting Jamin Davis in the media. Doesn't seem like an effective coaching strategy, but he may be scapegoating the LB (doesn't excuse the rest of the defense), or signaling he knows it's bad, but not his call.

RR and JDR are well aware of getting burned on the CBs playing off, way more than we are here. The only real question, is why don't they change the scheme?

Something has to change soon.

Fair point. And they had 191 yards rushing. That’s appalling.

You don't see that too much in NFL games. Almost 200 yards is just pathetic. These guys just aren't that good.

Wentz hasnt been the problem

The problem is the defense and the coaching staff

Who gives a shit, he still plays like a limp dick. Over throws receivers, holds on to the ball and sometimes is not aware of surroundings. Dotson, Samuel and McLaurin are making him look good.
