You're right.  But you can't fire every defensive player because they can't play well.   Are you going to sub 5 defensive players for players that are worse than those 5?

You have to make a statement to the entire defensive side of the ball, and that has to be firing the D Coordinator.   Pederson ain't going anywhere.   The Defense hasn't been able to get more than 2 sacks in a game for what....8 weeks?    The team TACKLES poorly.   WR are consistently wide open.

That's too many holes to fill, and a statement needs to be made.

No I get what your saying. The backups aren't any better and they've got worse if anything as the seasons gone on. I don't think sadly letting Caldwell go would do much to make this D play better. Allen and Walker have done nothing for weeks and cant win their matchups, the DB's cant cover in man or zone and we have busted coverages all the time. The players need to step it up.
