I do have to say, our fans are stupid (including me at times) if we believe that our D would be dominant immediatly
We have a new DC who hasnt coached in a while who is still adjusting to being on this team
We are switching schemes
Barnett, Dareus, Sheppard, Anderson, and Mario are all playing positions that they either never have played, or havent played in a few years
Barnett, Sheppard, A Williams, Rogers, and Dareus just came here last season
Gilmore, Mario, and Anderson all just got here this season
We have a brand new DC, defensive scheme, and a bunch of new players who have never played with eachother before before this year and or last. We were warned that our D will show flashes, but wont be really good till the later part of the season, so everyone keep calm. Today was a defensive collapse based on the surprising running game. We knew we had to stop Brady, and did a great job until they started running. But we knew we couldnt get outa a pass D because that was just what they were waiting for. A veteran D woulda been able to compensate for this, and i believe Wanny woulda made more adjustments. Our players just needa get comfortable together. Itll take some growing pains but weve shown alot of flashes. We all knew all this going into this season, but were just now realizing it. The fact that were showing flashes is all we can ask for at this point. But well be good. San frans and Houstons D didnt grow over one season. It took them all getting adjusted before they were really good. The cardinals didnt look dominant on D till the end of last season, and have continued this season. Just relax. We know individually that we have at least 4-5 great players, and the rest are solid, with a couple inconsistant players (Wilson, Barnett, Sheppard, Moats, A-Will, and Leodis)
