We Would Have Won If Dunlap and Atkins Played

The HC is a young c***sure bullshitter that has managed to fool someone in the FO. And, the DC was terrible even when there were no injuries. I'm really tired of hearing the injury excuses. This team is going on two years of total ineptitude on the defensive side of the ball.

The HC should be holding the DC accountable, he isn't. That's on the HC. Obviously, neither is doing their job.

Stop it, dude.  You aren't in the locker room and I, for one, think it is pretty cool that some of the other players are standing up for the coaching staff.  

Look at what this young bullshitter has done to this offense adding only Burrow and Higgins (and Jonah Williams)....all essentially rookies and all with no preseason.  The team is throwing up 30 burgers on anyone not named ratbirds.  

How much do you expect the DC to accomplish when his best DE is an out-of-shape malcontent.  His best 3T is opting out without opting out.  His best NT is out injured for the season.  His 2nd best DE is out injured.  He had two backup DT lost due to injury and a 3rd opted out.  He is playing without his best CB this past week, and without his biggest money FA CB all season thus far.  I'm sure you will call these excuses, but are they not at least the smallest bit legitimate gripes?  And don't forget that Logan Wilson, ADG, and Khalid Kareem are all getting significant playing time and doing quite well despite being rookies with no preseason.

I get this loss stings, but look across the field:  The Browns had Miles Garrett and Denzel Ward out there and couldn't stop Burrow ONCE.  NO PUNTS.  Defense isn't easy.  

Like I said, I think this team is 5-2 if Dunlap is playing like he did at the end of last season and we had an interested Geno playing next to Reader.  As it is, there will be no fools gold this year.  They are evaluating the young talent and will know who can be counted on next year and who should be traded or released.
