WRAPradio Posted September 18, 2020 Report Share Posted September 18, 2020 Lou A. needs to be on the clock. I know we were missing Geno and Mike Daniels, but he still called a horrible game. 1. We got zero pressure on Baker and it took him almost 2 quarters to start dialing up a little pressure 2. When we weren't blitzing, we were still leaving OBJ in single coverage 3. After the Browns went up 2 scores in the 4th, knowing we're struggling to stop the run, no run blitzes? Not selling out on the run on 1st down? 4. When sending blitzes, we show it too early and Baker was able to check in or out to better plays. Need to coach guys not to show/fold too early. You could hear Baker check into a run every time we had 6 in the box. This defense has enough talent to not be horrible, but the coaches need to put them in position to succeed and I don't think Lou did that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazycat Posted September 18, 2020 Report Share Posted September 18, 2020 Someone also needs to teach this putrid defense how to tackle! It is pathetic that year after year we have all these so called talented players, but none of them seem to have a clue of how to actually make a tackle. Next cut the entire right side of the line. Williams, Jordan and Hopkins are fine, but Johnson and Hart have got to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie_B Posted September 18, 2020 Report Share Posted September 18, 2020 Lou doesn't do anything that inspires me, but it's also hard to put this on him. He doesn't miss tackles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat Posted September 18, 2020 Report Share Posted September 18, 2020 Pipe dream would be if Zimmer gets fired in Minny... at least for me. Not sure that he'd want to come back to the city with such lovely memories like suddenly losing the love of your life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Since 87 Posted September 18, 2020 Report Share Posted September 18, 2020 Wade Phillips is available and wants to coach. His Ds always seem pretty good. Tough switch during a season though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleEarl Posted September 18, 2020 Report Share Posted September 18, 2020 yeah, that's not happening. Mike Brown doesn't pay coaches to sit at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madieu Superstar Posted September 18, 2020 Report Share Posted September 18, 2020 Maybe Zac Taylor can actually allow a little bit of contact in his training camps going going forward. It's nice to be healthy going into the season, but if you play like this, who cares? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerJ@w Posted September 18, 2020 Report Share Posted September 18, 2020 How much money did MFB handout for the defense during the off season? He sure can pick them. We let Baker light us up light a xmas tree. Pathetic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRAPradio Posted September 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2020 Dunlap was getting fooled on that bootleg giving Baker all-day to throw -- that's a coaching discipline thing. We have enough talent on D to be better than we were last night. We got out coached on D, it's as simple as that. Even without Geno and Mike D, there's no way we shouldn't have sent more run blitzes or pressure to get to Baker. You can scheme around weaknesses.

Since 87 Posted September 18, 2020 Report Share Posted September 18, 2020 Actually, I saw some next-gen stats that said the Bengals blitzed on 57% of the Brown's dropbacks. Another stat that said they got 3 pressures on Mayfield in 23 dropbacks. When you put that together, I think it just means they suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely no pass rush and even on blitzing we couldn't get to the QB. Embarrassing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the announcers or pre game hosts said, Taylor’s strategy was to contain Baker. They were getting fooled like the old days with our DEs. Also, we still cannot cover a TE. Will this team or a player ever do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-Dub Posted September 18, 2020 Report Share Posted September 18, 2020 64 pass attempts (!!!) in his 2nd game, with no preseason. Didn't they just extend Mixon? Taylor is out of his depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
