Far too predictable on defense - Tlawsonmariat82 - 11-08-2021
Lou has to change things up some from what I can see..baker mayfield has absolutely torn this defense apart and it's getting to be embarrassing..Anarumo has a fear of Blitzing and it's hurting the defense to an extent,I know he blitzed Baltimore more than normal but overall he calls the least amount of blitzes in the league..
I would to see more Blitzing and more single high because it's obvious the 7 man coverages are struggling mightily..

Or LBs could actually tackle the RBs
The “best safety in the NFL” could not get knocked on his ass or whiff on a tackle in the hole
DEs could actually beat the guy across from them and apply pressure like they did for the first 6 games.
Players just sucked yesterday. It’s easy to yell fire the coach but they didn’t get beat because of scheme. The guys out on the field were a sorry looking bunch.

We are far to predictable on both sides. Our coaches are like hiring the kid that just graduated college to run the company.

Lou has dialed up 74 blitzes this year, good for 15th in the league. From a blitz percentage standpoint, Lou calls blitzes on roughly 19% of plays, good for 23rd. He isn’t blitz happy but he isn’t called the least amount of blitzes in the league.

The combination of the 5-2 defense front + Eli Apple is killing us. We need more Athleticism on the field in place of the big personal.
