He had loads of time in the pocket and we let him get away with it on the interception opportunities.
McRae is terrible right now and will continue to be victimized
I honestly don't know how he made this roster or what the team see's in him?

It is the softest coverage and Akili Smith would be able to read those voids in coverage.
I swear the defense is so bad right now....I have no idea where to start, but doing the same thing they have been doing surely isn't working.
Still, just lack of aggression. Lou is doing about the same things Austin did last year, insanity.

So, Lou becomes this year's fall guy...And they have a built in excuse already on offense: Injuries.
At least Groundhog Day was funny

Well, have to have one and coaching is still the biggest problem with this team.
Taylor won't be gone after one year regardless. We need a better DC that has some experience and is aggressive somewhat.
Taylor also needs to just let it go and get a OC that calls the plays, he isn't good at it.
He is a good communicator and that is what he needs to stick to.
