Wash and the players must share the blame unfortunately.  Wash is being out maneuvered at times by opposing OCs but the players are definitely caught out of position and over pursuing too often.

2 weeks in a row the first play the D has faced, the commentators have made a point of saying how they bootleg or use cutbacks to use our speed against us. 

With the Jack play, he said it was a run play and McCaffrey hole was his gap but as the TE motioned, he played the TE as well in case of a PA. Too much thinking, trying to cover everything. Just do your job and play fast.

Are you suggesting he should not cover the TE?  Who should cover the TE on that play?  He was the LB closest to that side of the field. 

You say, "Do your job..." but what was his job?  That's what I'd like to know.  Why did he move toward the TE?

If the Panthers knew that motioning the TE toward that side if the field would cause Jack to think he had to cover the TE, then I guess Darius was right and they pencil-whipped us.
