Lou’s abysmal defenses have been opportunistic at best. The only consistent thing about his defense is that they will be inconsistent from one drive to the next, one game to the next. A key turnover here and there bails them out. They are soft, horrible at tackling, horrible at pressuring the QB outside of Hendrickson, and terrible at pass coverage. I honestly feel that the only times they looked good was when dumb opposing OCs go away from what was working.
The fact that this defense is ranked so poorly and people still think highly of him is completely laughable. He will be here next year and they will have another bottom 3 defense.
It's amazing how far a phrase can get you in life. The bend but don't break phrase has kept his job for a long time even though the defense is near last in the league in a few important stats. The bend but don't break phrase is uttered by fans.
But yeah they depended on the turnover this year and that is no way to depend on winning a game, probably the most undependable way next to waiting for a Special teams TD return or something lol.
At the same time I wonder how Lou never got a HC job, he must be shit at interviewing considering his defense probably carried them to the superbowl with Burrow doing just enough. Now he lives in the past.
