All eyes on Dennis Allen.

It's like he's so worried about being burned on the back-end that he totally negates the front that can do some damage. Hopefully the addition of Apple will force him to start bringing the pressure again.

When I see we only have 3 down linemen on plays, without a blitzing linebacker or safety, it's a sure bet we won't get QB pressure, QB will get 10 seconds in the pocket, and a deep passes completion on the corners is practically guaranteed.

I hate it when that happens.

He doesn't understand football as well as he thinks he does. Interceptions are an overrated stat when it comes to a defensive back. All I want to know is how often passes are completed when you're in direct coverage, how many yards are you giving up, and MOST importantly, how many TD's are being scored on you. In regards to Marshon Lattimore? 1 TD...Mike Evans...one of the top 5 to 10 talents at his position. Lattimore has been just fine this year.

Precisely.

Flacco had about 6, 7 solid seconds (final scoring drive) to dissect the defense & go through his progressions. You give Cousins, Goff, & Ryan that type of time ... expect to get carved up. I can't expect even elite corners to hold their man that long. Someone will get open.

I hope we see adjustments going forward.

When I see the prevent defense I get sick at my stomach. The game always gets too close for comfort.
