Week 10 Gameday Thread- Lions @Commaanders

[skinsfan69]

One thing that is so puzzling is why do they continue to let WR's off the line to get easy, uncontested catches? Vilma was calling it out about how the Lions were just playing pitch and catch. It's the same shit week after week.

These guys lack talent, coaching, discipline and motivation. If Whitt is teaching that then why is he an NFL coordinator? I'd rather send blitzes, knock the shit out of Goff and play more aggressive over letting them do whatever. Go down swinging. This defense really fucking sucks.

You have to be physical enough to play up on the line and as we never do it I can't see if we are capable or not. There's way too much soft zone coverage when it's not called for. Communication is obviously bad because of the number of times I've seen DB's running into each other.

But it's no good telling Whitt to blitz more because all our blitzes are vanilla AF. There is 0 innovation. Nothing tricky that causes an OL to be stretched/out of position.

He's not using players effectively, even the good ones. i.e Magee should have been subbed in for Wagner on passing downs from week 1, Luvu should primarily be a pass rusher, Von Miller probably shouldn't even be on the team, Amos is our best CB and should be shadowing their #1 all game, we should be playing more man coverage and have the S's help instead of being stuck in zone (which they're not great at anyway).

He can't scheme, he can't invent effective blitzes, he can't put his players in position to be good. What can he do?
