Play more man vs zone. 2 small "tweaks" would have helped a ton. Meh, I don't know.what you expected from the defense against the cowboys they held on as long as they could and made some stops and plays. With the same mediocre garbage we have had the last few years. So much for people not expecting anything in a rebuild year with rookie coaches. 😢😢😢😢 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RememberTheKoy Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Sirianni has been a disaster. Defense looked good the first 2 games until Graham went out and then they fell apart but they also did not really play any good offenses those first 2 weeks. I was thinking we would be seeing some creative blitzes and an attacking defense from Gannon but it just seems to be a zone 2 deep safety version of the Schwartz defense so far. Hargrave is the only bright spot on defense going forward but he is 28 and in the midst of his prime with one year on his deal after this season so it isn't like he is this core member that will be around for the long haul. The future is very bleak for this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teddiem Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 The lack of running plays was a lot on Hurts - he has to give that ball more to the back on the read plays. He has to be coached harder to distribute the damn ball to his play makers instead of trying to be the focal point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't have a full roster of talented defenders to work with. He has a pretty good D-line, but no Linebackers and a secondary that is average. Staying in a cover 2 shell all the time is a bad strategy when you have no linebackers, but then again every approach is a bad strategy when you have no linebackers. I blame Howie.

Cochis_Calhoun Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 Yeah the 3 Running Back carries in a game is inexplicable, I can't excuse that from Sirianni, but the defense was OK up to Dallas and my guess there is BG is a lot better at diagnosing whats coming and getting to where the ball is than who's come in for him, this may get worse before it gets better.

It definitely feels like one of those games where they shouldnt win at all, so they probably will. Or more likely Mahomes drops a 50 piece on our defense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK_EaglesFan89 Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 Ok so... Most of us fully expect the next few weeks to be ugly so... How many wins saves Sirianni this year? If he only wins 4 games does he survive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides I like dogs. They are loving creatures. Stop using that term, it means nothing when it comes down to winning football games. Sirianni not fooling anyone by using that inappropriate reference. Just manage the game without these meaningless catchwords. It's not about an animal- It's about an attitude. The word "dog" is slang, just as if you called someone a "cool cat." Oversensitive animals lovers- ya gotta chill and un pucker your butts. 🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyote Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 There is no "the" problem. There are the problems. They might get better as the season goes along, especially if the rookie WRs improve, but there isn't a lot of reason to think this is a good team. A lot of pretty good players, but not enough great ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they decide to fire him after one year because he runs the ball too much then this franchise has officially gone to sheet IMO the only way he gets fired after one year is if he clearly loses the team. He pulls a 3rd year Chip he better have United Van Lines on speed dial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah blame a 2nd year QB for his split second RPO decisions rather than the head coach who could simply call some run plays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I don't know the circumstances of Reids first year but under Doug they showed signs of promise. They won 7 games, lost some other close ones so there was a platform to build from.

They've got to show signs of developing and that there's a platform to build upon. If they don't and they look lost like they did against Dullarse then he probably should be fired.
