All the linebackers looked lost and slow.

Cutting Stupar looks pretty stupid now.

This is the same Demario Davis that was 6th in the league in tackles just last year. Moving him from the middle doesn't seem to be working. That's on Nolan too.

Almost all of us in this forum can see that Craig Robertson needs to be starting, why can't Nolan see it?

When you make these types of moves and they work, you look like a genius.

When you make these types of moves and they don't work, you look for another job.

Because Nolan isn't making the calls, Payton is.

Rob Ryan said that Payton got too involved in Defense in 2014 and screwed up a plan that worked, all of a sudden we have a great D last year that sucks again and all players are playing out of their natural positions.

Coincidence? Multiple Defensive Coordinators, same Defense fielded.

Not hard to play like Fitzpatrick when there's NO pass rush and you're WR are running WID open down the field

They took advantage of their WR's height over our shorter DB's.

"He put it where only the WR could get to it" there was no one else around he had worry about getting it but Maybe another Bucs WR

I actually agree that SP is getting involved, but RR had the same complaints in Buffalo he did here.

The shame was what we did to Spags. Dude had ****ing 0 talent and took all the blame. Corey white was a starting CB as a rookie 🙄🙄🙄🙄

The linebacker shuffle is stupid. Teo might need to start and why isn't Robertson playing? Mind numbing. But none of that can help bad defensive tackles. We have really poor talent there

They need to leave Te'o on the field more than the other LBs.

Seriously. Stop laughing.

I’d be completely fine with this:

SLB - Robertson
MLB - Davis
WLB - Te’o

We immediately become a lot slower at the position, but also a lot smarter and more discipline. Plus Te’o and Robertson are better against the run and tend to get more interceptions in coverage because they know the game better. Klein is horrible though. We need to keep him off the field at all costs. Stupar was much better than he is...and Stupar is WILDLY overrated on these forums.

Precisely.

Not making excuses for anyone on the back end, but it's a lot harder to play defense if you can't generate a pass rush. These offenses are too good. At this level, even an average QB will slice you up. If you don't put em under duress, they (see Fitzpatrick) will complete passes.

We must do a better job up front on Sunday.

Nick Underhill said that Fitzpatrick was getting the ball out in under 2 seconds a lot of the time; including the bomb to Evans where he burned Lattimore. There isn’t much the pass rush can do in those situations. They just played a completely different ball game than we expected.
