I was at the game, but it seemed to me that we were running a soft, prevent style defense most of the 2nd half. I saw Johnson dropping back a lot. I also saw him miss a few tackles in the 2nd half.

This place never ceases to amaze me.

Everyone welcome BlackBob back to the board.

I wonder what Brandon Siler is doing right now.

D.J. had a fine year this year. What are you talking about?

how about the d-line

our starting DEs recorded like 1 ****ing tackle between them

that is sad.

I don't guess you guys realize he actually almost won the game for us?

He destroyed the RB at the goal line putting his helment right onto the ball and caused THE fumble.

As LUCK would have it LUCK picked itup and dove in for the TD.

If we had recovered we'd be playing next weekend.

First, I think Derrick is a good player. Sure he picked a bad time to disappear but the real weaknesses were exploited and he just wasnt able to help.

Second. For a team with as many defensive "Pro-Bowler" as this team has does anyone else feel that maybe some of them are overrated or not necessarily as good as Pro Bowl players of old. Not speaking of Derrick Johnson just the collective group of "Pro-Bowlers" here on Defense.

Maybe im getting old but it seems like the players that were "Pro-Bowlers" back in the 80s- 90s were more deserving of that title then todays guys. I mean, this team has "Pro Bowl" players at every level on D, but against quality opponents when its do or die not one of them can step up and do anything about it. Is it 100% Sutton? or do you feel these guys are decent, but not necessarily well rounded players. Just good at one thing but bad in other areas.

Berry in coverage. :shake:
Tamba with his lone move. :shake: Come on dude your not going to get the holding call, come up with something different.

He disappeared a bit for sure but that'll happen when the other team is down 28 points and passing so effectively against your CBs.

I can't remember anything really bad from him but I do wonder where he was on the fumble that bounced right to Luck. When I saw it pop out I thought for sure DJ would be the guy to fall on it but.. I honestly don't even know where he was on that play.

The Pro-Bowl will be a lot harder for those guys to get into next year.

The "secret" is out. Our defense sucks in a historically bad way.

Berry forced that fumble.

When the opposition is passing practically every down, that will probably be the case.

Don't forget about Kendrick Lewis standing there and watching Luck score with it.

He made it to my 'drop' list in the other thread.
