There has to be some substantial push from your front four; I'd say rotate the front four every three downs...

Eventually some of those idiots would get tired of running in and out and would find the heart to get to that quarterback so they could get off the field...

well, the more i watch the more disgusted i get at the missed and poor tackling .thats something that cant really be blamed on spags. these guys are supposed to be professinals they should know the basics of good tacklng they ar'nt a bunch of peewees that you have to show how to square up on your man and wrap him up. all spags can do is design the defense the players still have to execute it. bad tackles and miscommunications is on the players.

When players don't undestand the new scheme they aren't moving at full speed. They're hesitant... observing as they go therefore getting burnt by professionals. As a former Head Coach Steve Spagnoula should have been able to judge his people to see if they're "getting it" or not.
I 100% blame him for that.

If his guys aren't getting it then either tone it down, slowly get into the new scheme but its obvious they're not catching on quickly enough. We all heard the "it took 2 games before the Giants became a great defense" After game 4 we should have realized thats not going to happen and you need to make adjustments. We lose another game I say stick a fork in us because we're done...

You can't revert to old defensive scheme now. You keep the same scheme and figure out what current players can adapt to it and get rid of the rest.
It can't be that difficult to stay in your zone, it's just a lack of discipline with the players we have.
