Lattimore was the DROY for 2017, now he's lazy, not in football shape and crying post game?
Craig Robertson - all he does is makes plays with the 1's, 2's, 3's and 4 but doesn't play/limited action against a divisional foe?

Me thinks it's not all on the players.

I agree aside from the pRob point. He was the only one not victimized.

I am baffled by how we are using our LBs. Most talented group we have had in years and we are playing all of them out of position or letting them ride the bench... but what do I know, I just watch games.

Payton is to blame for playing guys out of position, it has happened with every defensive coordinator we have had.

You can't tell me that isn't on Payton.

I love the last statement:

On Ryan Fitzpatrick catching them off guard with his ability to run:
“He’s done that pretty much his whole career. He’s been pretty effective to climb and get a first down. He’s not exceptionally fast but someone who is willing to run, especially when he sees the right coverages. We have to do a better of job of keeping them contained in the pocket.”

Ummm..ok, so when you realize that we cannot contain him, did it never cross your mind to spy him, especially on the last 3rd down that Fitz ran 12 yards for a 1st down. This is what really pisses me off, you see, you acknowledge it, it didn't work, so you just did nothing else about. About sums it up right, way to be the head coach.

OK, so we were a play away from the NFC Championship game last year, one whiff, so now we throw everybody away. Good call. I don't know why you all aren't successful NFL GM's, keep it up.

It's a new season buttercup.

Prob played with a team that had an extremely Sid, if not phenomenal, front 7 last year. They applied all kinds of pressure. Easier to play CB when the QB has no time

Btw did not see the game have no idea how he played, but basing it off of you bringing up his name. Just saying, a front 7 makes the back look much better...matter of fact the front 4

Gregg Williams defense never really stopped anyone, especially in the playoffs except the SB season and that was because it caught teams off guard.

The post game comments could have been quick "we were owned"

I didn't get to watch the game but I did watch the highlights/lowlights this morning and one thing stood out - that was some horrid blocking on the toss to Gillislee. No wonder he got the ball punched out and the ball got returned for 6. The edge was set that poorly.

It's so hard to understand the coverage breakdowns - the camera doesn't show the route combinations or what the defense is doing. I guess someone would have to look at the real tape and that's why Sean makes the big bucks.
