The Official Defense Has Major Issues/Fire Jim Haslett Thread

[SirClintonPortis]

People may say I'm crazy and a traitor, but we should make a go for Wade Phillips when he gets ass kicked out of Dallas.

You are crazy and you are a not traitor but you are a nimrod.

What?
He's always suffocated the living shit out of our offense for last few 1000 years.

They had a goal line stand today. We let some backup scrub score a killer touchdown.

What he asks out of his NT would go much better in Albert Haynesworth's mind.

Haslett is fine. The switch to the 3-4 is going to take time and getting the right personnel, and add depth. What Haslett has to do to make things better is realize he can't blitiz all the time with the players he has and go back to playing zone.

The Phillips 3-4 has the NT penetrate the backfield. There is not bs hold your ground and sit pretty stuff going on there.

I was against Haslett day one, but I have liked what I have seen up until this game. I know the stats are bad but the players look like they are actually having fun and making plays.

I don't get the NT just sitting either. I'd tell a 3 DL to rush the QB, throw in 2 LB's and let the other 2 sit back in zone and

Oh hell I don't know what the "F" I'm talking about but Baltimore and the Jets I think have the NT attacking not sitting waiting to clog a lane.

Agreed. I love the way Phillips utilizes Jay Ratliff's quickness at NT. Big Al might be more receptive to playing NT if given similar freedom to penetrate upfield.

Even if we let Big Al do whatever he wants at NT we do not have the linebackers to play a 3-4. I said this as soon as it was announced as the direction that we were going.

The 3-4 is based on linebackers and we are at least an offseason or two away from getting the parts that we need to be effective.

Better earlier than later. We have Rak and Fletch. Just need a run stuffer and hope that Riley kid comes up. It would be a bonus if Rocky fits in well.

It could be argued that Fletch isn't that great in the 3-4 either. He is going to need to be replaced sooner rather than later too.

We are no where close and can someone explain to me why Carter is playing over Chris Wilson? Carter is useless in this defense.

If I knew a synonym for useless that was more accurate, I would insert it to describe Carter.

Yes the refs were garbage as usual, that wasn't a catch. They held us almost Evert damn play. But we get called forholding. Gimmie an effing break they handed them the game just as.much as we did. My sign has been that way for 2 yrs or more for a reason.
