Well they did support Herm cause they knew he would fix the defense.

So why does this surprise you?

You can't deny he had a lot to do with getting us into the playoffs.

Not too long ago this fan base would have killed for a DC that could hold teams to 22 points in the postseason.

I'm not willing to even look at that case, let alone open it and look inside. Sutton's tenure with the Chiefs be what it may, he's done here for me.

There is a partial Twitter chain below showing how we were in the completely wrong defensive set when TN ran for that 35 yard touchdown. It was something even highschool coaches know how to avoid. Even if it was a one-time error, it's inexcusable at the NFL level.

Click the tweet for the full chain and description.

Still holding out hope that the two guys who probably make sense for the Chiefs, spags and Adam Zimmer, technically aren't on the market. If Minnesota loses and spags misses the Giants HC opportunity, maybe we'll see some momentum.

Times are different now. We've had a taste of some minor success, and this is no longer acceptable.

Forget the stats, Sutton just misuses his players far too often. That is the ultimate red flag.

He needs to go.

Man..forget Sutton for a second. This defense needs a lot of work in personnel. Dorsey really ****ed up this defense.

2 DL, ILB, maybe OLB, #2 CB and S. Big questions there.

Now we see why Dorsey was shown the door.

You have some valid points, however relying on Hali might be overstating since he played in only 5 games.
My biggest concern is his seeming inability to adjust to the opposing offense, particularly in the 2nd half. With a 21-3 lead at halftime, you know the opposing OC had to make a change and Sutton didn't. When you allow TD drives of 91, 62, and 80 yards in the 2nd half, you've gone to sleep.

Here are the other relevant rankings:

2017:
- Passing yds: 29th
- Rushing yds: 25th

2016:
- Passing yds: 18th
- Rushing yds: 26th

2015:
- Passing yds: 9th
- Rushing yds: 25th

2014:
- Passing yds: 31st
- Rushing yds: 5th

2013:
- Passing yds: 7th
- Rushing yds: 11th


The "bend but don't break" approach isn't sustainable, and things are trending the wrong way since 2015. It's time for a change, and a move away from the Ryan system.

Horrible. As I posted in another thread very rarely do SB winning teams have rankings as low as the bolded parts whether that be the offense or defense. Our defense has got to better...

What the **** happened between 2014 and 2015? Run defense just fell off a ****ing cliff.

Off the top of my head, Houston and Poe were hurt

Poe hurt his back.

Makes sense. Looks like we need a dominant NT in the trenches to have any shot with this D. Logan just won't cut it. Hopefully we can swing for Pennel.
