14 missed tackles yesterday

[RunKC]

Per PFF

Missed tackles are a player problem. You’re taught how to tackle from day 1 in youth football.

Blame the DL but this was just as big of a problem as no pressure

[Eleazar]

Fire the tackling coach!

The tackling was as big of an issue as anything.

For real every time they ran the ball they drug our defenders 3-5 yard downfield and THEN fall forward for another two.

What's the old quote? "You are either coaching it or allowing it to happen." A team that cannot tackle is soft. A team that gets bullied in the trenches on both sides of the ball is soft. Coaches are not pressing the correct buttons to make these guys play like a tougher team.

Reid’s teams have always been finesse, it’s why they get punched in the mouth often.

I am so sick of these Spags ball washers and how they attribute any good play to Spags, and poor play to the players. It's FN ridiculous.

Marty emphasized takeaways, and we always were at the top of the league in turnover differential.

Great DCs like Buddy Ryan or Dick LeBeau emphasized tackling, and their defenses were great at tackling.

What does Spags emphasize? Because it sure TF isn't takeaways or tackling.

Nobody cares about that what people outside of us care about is that Burrow beat Mahomes yet again. That stings and can't shake it off till we even the score and win another Super Bowl.

People outside of us don't matter. Our opinions are more informed and knowledgeable than theirs.

Yeah! They're all stupid and fat and smell like vinegar.

I know people are dumb enough to go with the narratives, but it's a team game. That's why Mahomes had a losing record in college. The rest of the team was shitty.

Burrow has a better team behind him IMHO. Cincy has a better defense, which includes better tackling, better pass rush, & better secondary performance. KC's special teams have been pretty bad all year, so it's safe to assume the Bengals are better in that department. The coaching seems sharper with the Bengals as well. KC is a sloppy team and it starts with the coaches.

Well, you know, they're still on Burrow's rookie deal.

And they'd been terrible for so long, they were drafting at the top of the round.

Now, I'm not saying their poorly coached-that's clearly a good coaching staff. But they have some institutional advantages that we no longer enjoy, and some that we never had because Andy had us in the play-offs every year even before Pat.

Pressure.

That's really it.

Spags claim to fame is two victories over Tom Brady in the SB. He got Brady off his spot, threw off his game with a savage d line.

In our SB we were playing a shit qb that threw what 8 passes in one postseason game?

Pennel forced an eyes shut desperation interception, Jones batted a couple passes, Nieman got a huge hit on a 3rd down, and Frank got a sack at the end.

He doesn't scheme to take players away, he schemes to create pressure on the qb. As we saw, Sanders was wide open for the go ahead td, Jimmy just wasn't that guy to hit that throw in the clutch.

If pressure isnt affecting the qb, you get games like we saw Sunday.

No they weren't always top of the league in turnover differential. Marty's defenses were always up and down year to year.

It's useless to romanticize a history that isn't true.

Those defenses drove me nuts with their tackling. It always seemed like they were more worried about trying to get a strip than to put the guy on the ground. 5 yards later......
