It's awful. We saw the same issues for the second year in a row with him and it needs to be addressed. As much [BLEEP] as Press Taylor, Doug Pederson and Trevor Lawrence get for the failings on offense?

Caldwell should be canned for these issues on defense. You had one of the better pass rushing tandems in the NFL this season, you had, at one point, one of the best turnover producing defenses in the NFL.

Something clearly went off after they got exposed by the 49ers it seems like he never found any answers or enough answers to recover for it. The blown coverages in the secondary, the blitzes that were called and routinely beat perfectly, something we saw again yesterday at one point or two, it's nauseating. 

Doug MUST learn from his mistakes with the Eagles. If he doesn't move on from these coordinators his fate is sealed in my opinion, and so is Lawrence's. Failure to adjust all season was self evident and it's really, really troublesome.

Similar issues there, the middle is soft and they had injuries in the secondary all year. I don't know if Caldwell legitimately could've called anything else though, I'm reminded of Todd Wash's "We blitzed, we played zone, we played man...there's not much more we could try" press conference. This team just isn't good enough.
