Trying to wrap my head around it myself. Had there actually been a NT in front of Hitchens, it would have looked to been a good play call IF the defensive line and OLBs were in a 1-gap press. I can't, for the life of me, find any way to defend Sutton on that one. That's idiotic at best. I'm not sure you could run that defense against anything short of 3rd and 20. An inside draw would eat up at least 10 yards every time.

But this week was really really bad and the more tape on it we see, the more obvious that has become. THIS is the kind of game that calls for putting Sutton on the hot seat. The reason I haven't is because I think this game has largely been a rarity. But man alive did he get smoked on Sunday. For the record - I'd give you even money that the reason he lined up in that formation was James White. I think Sutton is well aware (as most of us are) that his ILB's have no chance in hell of covering White in space and if he'd have gone out there in a look that closed up the middle, Brady simply kills into a pass play that gives White the ball in space so he could pick up the easy 1st down there. But man, at least close your splits a bit. The dime package doesn't bother me much with White on the field because like I said - we can't cover him with any of our linebackers. But you can't just give him easy money up the gut like that.

He saw #28 in the huddle, knew he had to pick his poison and hoped that Brady wouldn't have the confidence in White to run between the tackles to change to a run. I think he seriously overcorrected there, but I think White and his ungodly stiff ILBs are the reason he went out there with the package he did. I cannot, cannot, CANNOT overstate how badly the play by our interior linebackers is killing this defense. It's as bad a unit as any unit I have ever seen, up to and including some of those abysmal OL's we had in the Sackintosh era. If it's scheme, change it. If it's players, change them. Something absolutely has to be done because this is officially untenable.

Let's be fair - Brady laughed internally everytime he saw Hitchens or Ragland on the field.
The fact that Hitchens was out there in our Dime formation demonstrates just how mis-cast he is in this defense. These guys genuinely believe he's a 3 down linebacker and I just don't see a way to credibly make that case at this point. That was a bad call from Sutton but I'll be damned if I can find a good one.

Imagine if we worked on perfecting the art of drawing DPI and DH calls? Oh, and the pick play too! Wow!

Maybe Anthony Hitchens really is that stupid? As soon as Brady audibled, he should’ve changed the allignment and lined up to stop the run.
That’s not on Bob. Once again it’s the player. And that’s embarrassingly bad for Hitchens.

Yeah, because lining Hitchens up as the NT to begin with was such a good idea. How ****ing dare Hitchens not recognize it and try to move Ford and Speaks to stop the run.
