The Defense played well to finish off the season last year.
21 Sacks last 7 games, last 6 Games of the year held QBs under 60% completion, and held 3 opponents under 20 points in the last seven games.
If we're being fair to Lou he has done a much better job on the Defense then Taylor has with the offense. While that isn't saying much it's true. If Lou goes then Taylor has to go first. Also if Taylor goes then Duke absolutely has to go.
This narrative on Lou is outrageously unfair.
1.) The Defense played great week 1 and gave this team a chance to win the game. It's not their fault that the Offense put up only 13 points. It's not their fault that Burrow and Mixon turned the ball over in the 4th Quarter ( which only lead to 3 points because of the Defense) and Bullock missed a chippy FG.
2.) The Defense was playing on a short week against a tough Browns rushing attack. A attack the week before that put up a 132 yards on 23 carries against the Ravens. So playing them on 3 days rest was going to be a tough challenge. Especially when you take away a HOF player like Geno away from the unit.
