If this defense is giving up 25+ ppg and the teams 0-4 after 4 games does Lou survive the season? I think he'll be fired during the season or after it because he's a shitty coach but that's my opinion. If the Defense is that bad and say the Bengals finish the season 6-10, I think the whole coaching staff is gone. So now your stuck with having to hire a coach who'll bring a coach who'll only coach zone.I can agree on the Zone portion, unfortunely it's what we have and will until further notice...So hopefully they can get the pieces in place to fit that.
As far as Trey, I respect your opinion on his game, however, i was watching highlights of his sacks from last season, and mehhh. Dude has a high end motor and doesn't quit. He's not very fleet of foot and power rushes. Quite a few of his sacks were due to coverage down field, which he wont have here because in NO he had 2 Tier 1 CB's. I personally seen a lot of clean up sacks nothing that he came around the corner and blew past the OT like Lawson would do.
As far as Geno, dudes either going to get his 14M or he'll more than likely be playing else where next year. He knows his worth. He knows he'll be able to get 8-10M on the open market and the Bengals aren't going to pay him that. I'd love to keep the guy cause I think he's a HOF and he deserves to retire in a Bengals uniform but its all about business.
Then you need to stop watching Highlights on Trey and watch FULL GAME FILM. Because he often bull rushed the LT and got to the QB, he also does have a terrific motor and doesn't quit on a play, getting the sack on 2nd and 3rd effort.
As for the Saints CBs. Lattimore is solid, but he is nowhere near what he was his rookie year. He played closer to that this year, but not to where it was. Jenkins was AVERAGE at best and one of the reasons the Saints decided to cut him to save CAP space. Their Nickel CB is GARBAGE, PJ Williams was so bad they were using a S Gardner-Johnson in the Nickel often. So The Saints did NOT have tremendous coverage that lead to all these coverage sacks. That is Beyond false.
