Team has quit. There's clearly talent here but they have quit.

They haven't been elite since 2018. They don't force turnovers or get sacks anymore. They've been in the good-to-mediocre territory for the better part of the last two seasons. Good enough to win with, but not without really good quarterback play.

They've been taking advantage of hicks being out. They can run up the gut all day long.

If one player brings about your downfall on defense, you simply were never elite

True but It seems like they just gave up today. In terms of effort it's the lowest I've seen it this season.

Good point. But Pagano's scheme will never get them to elite. He doesnt maximize their talents. He plays it too conservative

Not watching but I'm going to guess DT is still out there getting burnt on both run & pass plays

The offense dropped 2 TDs, threw an INT into double coverage in the end zone, and haven't scored a TD in the first half in like 2 months.......but your take is about the defense?
The defense gave up 41 points against our biggest rival. And they didn’t force a punt until the 3rd quarter!

Did you guys see how Skrine was 1 on 1 on Adams all night? Brilliant scheming by Pagano.
:obama:

Or Fuller giving Adams a 12yd cushion. Great idea
