We aren't loaded with superstars anymore. We have Jones who's great in spurts and peters who's off his game this year. And then Houston who's consistently great. We have a much bigger talent problem than we want to admit. Scheme will help but it can only cover up so much of our talent deficiencies. These aren't guys who became free agents. These are guys who were cut repeatedly by other teams. |

I like a lot of the talent we have.
KPL is a quality LB who is a perfect replacement for DJ. He's a quality tackler with the same athleticism DJ had 5 yeas ago. Ragland has really started to come on now that he has had time to figure out the defense and his role. Aside from coaching, the 2014 draft flaming out is why this defense is so bad. If we get a new DC, OLB opposite Houston and an even average CB, we can be good.

Also, losing Eric Berry could not have been highlighted any more clearly than yesterday.
That Eric Murray **** up against Jason Witten is a pick 6 if that's Eric Berry on the field.

Is it really Sutton fault that DJ and Tamba are turtles and not the Ninja in a half shell they are just in a shell?

This scheme needs to start playing their CBs aggressively. Stop allowing the easy quick hitters, and maybe the pass rush will show itself. |

The problem is we built this defense to beat New England. We didn't build this defense to beat Pittsburgh or Dallas. First, it was stupid to even try the NE counter against Pittsburgh. Second, the biggest reason for our Dime defense failures has been the long ball - part of that is because of this ridiculous disregard for OPI this season, the second is that our DBs have been comically terrible at guarding the jump ball. So maybe there is something to work off of. We can run Dime against certain teams, but we have to either limit the jump ball or get significantly better at guarding it. Against power teams, we have to figure something out but at least yesterday we showed ability to flex our personnel. Unfortunately, our talent is not well built to stop both the run & pass. We probably have to sell out. Our best hope is that our playoff road doesn't include a power team like Pitt and Dallas. Trying to be optimistic here. |

Definitely early to say. They looked pretty good in some small sample sizes though.. so I'd hope they give them more looks.

You put a player in position to succeed, and they miss a tackle.. or a pick six goes through their arms... or is slow filling their gap. You going to blame that on Sutton? It's not the scheme. You can't hide that many weaknesses with adjustments.

It is a coaching problem.
