These are problems. Whole lot of watching recievers run past the defender untouched on the way to making a catch. Whole lot of jogging to the ball after the catch. This secondary may be the worst we have ever had; and it is killing the rest of the team.Quote:

PLEZ. To repeat a previous POST, Defense held this bunch to 30 points, and I don't think anybody thought that would happen!!!
We ONLY scored 26. AND 20 last week which was good enough to TIE.
But Hawaii shut their offense down in the 4th Quarter. I'm pretty sure they could have scored again if they would have needed to.... we had no answers to their passing game.Quote:

I think he's at double-diamond distributor level...comes with the screen shot package.Quote:

PS - YOU'RE a "moderator" and you're trolling/badgering other Tech fans just because they won't badmouth the program like you? You don't want site traffic, do you?
Sucks when people are condescending to you doesn't it?Quote:

Frankly, I wouldn't applaud the defensive secondary too much after last week's inability to stop the "let's let Moniz throw the ball up and see what happens" gameplan. Those were the most insane garbage plays I've seen in quite some time, and they should have been broken up.
While I don't think all of our defensive woes are squarely on the DC or staff, I do think we need to change it up and bring in someone new. We have talent in all areas, but our defense just doesn't have attitude or swagger or whatever you want to call it. I think we need someone new to change the culture of our defense, because dropping huge leads and not being able to cover (because we haven't for two years atleast now) doesn't cut it anymore.

Our D could definitely use a lil more swagger. We have some talent on defense, but not nearly enough.
Interesting though that it is extremely rare that anyone disputes a point he's made. Typically when he makes a good point he just gets shouted down and told he's a troll. I don't agree with everything he has said here by any means whatsoever but the responses to him have been interesting to say the least. If you think he's wrong call him out on it and present facts. I have in other threads. But what we are doing most of the time reminds me of what the libs do in the polical forum if an article from Fox news is posted. They dismiss the source without considering the idea.Quote:
