We mainly need our secondary to make INTs

Our defense looked like a clip from a Benny Hill film.

We were up 7-0 and the D got the ball back to us and Drew throws an ill advised pass and all of a sudden it's 7-7. Then 2 of our best receivers each drop what would have been a TD and we have to settle for 3. There's plenty of blame to go around and it's going to get better. Stop all the panic. We sound like failcons fans.

No Excuses, Spud as I will refer to him from now on has had a total of 7 games to get his so called scheme in place. What I saw today was nothing less than pathetic. I would say its a personnel problem but we would need 11 new players on defense as opposed to 1 so called D coordinator. Obviously he was fired at the Rams for a reason, could it be he sucks

What are you talking about? He was the head coach of the Rams. He was a DC at the Giants and turned their defense into the 3rd ranked defense and won the Superbowl in his first year.

Also a coach at the Eagles before that and turned their defense around as well...

When you're loaded with talent like the Giants then I would say almost anyone could have coached that defense as well as Phili.
So since he was the head coach he bears no responsibility on all those losing Rams teams. Gimme a break, you do some more reading and look at the players he was coaching on the teams you referred too!!!!

The Rams had a decent defense, they held Drew to probably his worst game last year, remember that? With like 6 DBs on IR, they were literally pulling CBs off the street and beat us...

1 game in how many years, so did that game save his job (NO) why because he sucks
You say he was the head coach not the D coord at the rams so he's not responsible for the DEfense, but we often refer to Payton as head coach and off coord. Bottom line the guy sucks unless you give him all pro players to work with and the Saints definitely don't have but maybe 1

If you haven't realize this yet, it's what have you'd one for me lately not 5 years ago. That's just life

I don't believe it is completely coaching...it's personnel..

1) Will Smith - Why the **** is he even still on the team
2) Sedrick Ellis - never turned out to be crap
3) Scott Shanle - Why the **** is he even still on the team
4)Corey White - The new Jason David
5)Roman HArper - slow, and only good for an extra man in the box. Terrible in coverage
6) Malcolm Jenkins - garbage safety. Maybe he would have been alright if we kept him at corner
7)Vilma - a has been that is only distracting the entire team right now with his bounty bull****

Our defense sucks. That should be the focal point next year. We need headhunters out that. People that can tackle and have good football IQ. Even though this is a offensive league right now, defense still wins games. Case in point : San Fran.

I agree with you 100 %, but at some point you have to adjust to your personnel and IMO this guy can't. We may not have given Greg Williams enough credit for what he did with the same players albeit not great but decent.

You think LSU would let us use their defense on Sundays?
