Still going through but on the main TD plays:

-The long TD by Ebron seems like it was Jalen's at fault.(coupled with Doug's comments) We were lined up showing press-man with the CBs but we were playing 3 deep zone. When the play is about to start Gipson is back deep, Patmon on the right side is backpedaling covering his zone deep while Ramsey for some reason is still playing man coverage on Hilton which was supposed to Church's responsiblity at that point. Result is Ebron going deep right where Jalen was supposed to backpedal like Patmon did on the other side and Ramsey obviously wasn't there and Ebron was easily wide open.

-The 12 yards TD by Ebron in the corner of the end zone is Church's fault (confirrmed by Doug). We were in cover 0, 2 guys blitzing, Patmon is covering the guy in front of him (even a few steps late) and Church is supposed to be on Ebron in man coverage. For some reason Church is completely out of position....we could even have called a timeout based on how much confusion there was.

-The Ally Cox TD was again on Ramsey. He was lined up in man coverage right on him, followed when he motioned inside but bit on the play action/hand off to the RB, got sucked up to the LOS and Cox passed right by him with Jacobs trying to recover Jalen's fault. You can see Ramsey trying to rush back as soon as he realizes he bit on the run.

-The 35 yards completion from Luck to Hilton was not a blown coverage but was Church reacting late in zone coverage.

Will try to watch more later.
In general we are struggling a lot (like at times last year) with the receivers running by or behind our LBs(especially Telvin) and Church reacting late, taking a bad angle or the CB/LB getting confused to who's supposed to carry the guy and that stuff.

So basically everything that we've all been saying for weeks and weeks now... Yet nothing has changed... Falls on Wash.

It's obvious every team in the league knows what we're going to do every week and we don't change much at all. We go into the game with the exact same game plan Defensively, as the week before and teams abuse us until we finally adjust a little bit at halftime. By then it's already too late and pointless. Any half way decent QB is going to eat up Zone coverage and that was before the league made it even easier for Offenses to succeed. Now the Offense can hold all day long and the Defense can hardly look at Offensive players without getting penalties, which makes playing Zone even worse.

It's the same [BLEEP] every week. They need to bench Church already... He's constantly out of position and takes terrible angles. Harrison can't possibly be any worse.
