And if Ron would have challenged (any other coach would have in that situation) that 4th down pass by the Eagles that is another TD taken away from the bad guys.

Bottom line is 38 points on the board, can't win a lot of games like that.

The defense has been a massive flop all year.

Do we have good players and a terrible DC?

Or bad and overrated players and a terrible DC?

Defense was supposed to be the strength of the team, it clearly is not. We don't really have a strength.

Probably a mix of overrated players and an overrated DC

Either way, it's a seriously underperforming unit for whatever reason

Seriously underperforming - for a unit that was supposed to be the strength of the team this year. 2nd to last in points per game allowed, and bottom of the pack in most defensive stats that matter. It's hard to believe that JDR still has a job. Who TF would replace him though. There's no unit that is playing well, so who would you 'promote'?

Both Ron and Jack's sons are on the coaching staff. I didn't even know that... What a joke.
