Adios Burke

Don't just stop at Burke, there's a couple players that should be right behind him.
 
The ends are completely useless right now. There is no pressure whatsoever. The interior offers nada in the pass rush as well. Right now Finheaven whipping boy Charles Harris might be our best pass rusher and he’s not good. He’s the only guy who’s sniffed a QB in week. I also think Phillips was our only shot at an interior pass rush but the coach couldn’t get along with him so Jarrius Pittman is playing. Good move.

Also, whenever the CB’s are expecting safety help it’s never there. I feel like our safeties are always jumping short stuff. Both of them not just TJ. This defense is a mess/
 
Last year the defense was bad. Now this year we have 5 new starters and the defense is still horrible.
Quinn, Spence, RM, Baker and Minkak are all new starters but nothing has changed.
We can't stop the run and the QB has all day to throw to receivers that are open by at least 10 yards.
Burke needs to go but the players are pretty bad too.
We miss way too many tackles. That's on the players. Our defense is getting pushed around in almost every game.
But watch us win 2 or 3 more games so that we'll draft middle of the packs once again.

Calling someone a fall guy is suggesting they are a scapegoat. He’s no scapegoat, he’s part of the real problem.
It’s a poorly coached team.
As an NFL season progresses there is more film available to scout teams. Therefore, the better coaching staffs are able to prepare better and they improve as the season progresses (Pats are a prime example). The Pats started 1-2 and have a slow LB corp, but can gameplan to minimize their limitations. Against the Phins, they looked like they knew the playbook.
Poorly coached teams are just the opposite. They get outschemed and as a result the players look lost and confused (dolphin defense in all the losses) and they get worse as the season progresses.
There is no hope for this season and they need to jettison the FO and coaching staff.
They have a good young core of players. They need good coaching and an above average QB if they want to compete.
Boy has this season started circling the drain fast. Not even November yet.
 
Burke, since you are still here (who knows why), don't f*ck this week up!

It’s tough. He’s getting nothing from the des we got guys blowing assignments all over the place and the mike lb play is no where near consistent enough

Completely agree here. But as the DC it ultimately is on him.

There is a reason why those DEs aren't getting home.
There is a reason those DTs/LBs aren't as efficient in the running game.
There is a reason those guys in the secondary are blowing assignments.

It's his job to figure that out, instill the concepts, teach the discipline, put the right players in etc.

If he can't do that then he shouldn't be DC.

Nailed it. If 1-3 players are failing, it's on the players. If 8-10 players are failing, it's the DC
 
Don't like the coach, scheme, or personnel. Blow the defense up. I'd only keep Fitzpatrick, Howard, McCain, Taylor, Godchaux, and Baker. Everyone else should be upgraded or at least be given competition.
 
We got better de play vs the pack. Only thing that kept us in it.

Qb play took us out
