Quote:Smiley Gus has done nothing that would remotely resemble Seattle. The D is experienced. They are the weakest link.

With offsides, poor tackling, big plays given up...every game so far and another 30+ point game , something is clearly wrong.

Is it coaching? Can someone give some insight? SMH is all I can do.


With that D and the porous OLine, the season is going downhill in a hurry.


Tampa went to Pittsburgh, played with pride and pulled one out. Something this team lacks.

 

Quote:When the team plays competitive in the first half, then falls flat in the second half, that tells you two things. The opposing team is making good adjustments, and your staff isnt

 

Quote:The consistent blowouts are alarming, you rarerly see that in the NFL, let a lone every week.

All very valid and fair points.  At this time you have to question coaching when the Raiders just fired their HC for going 0-4.   I don't think that Dave should fire Gus, but I do think that Gus needs to get the team coached up.  I dont even expect a win, but a decent showing on Defense would be a start.  Stop the bleeding, keep the opposing teams to at least 20 points a game and under 300 yards passing... I dont think thats asking to much as a fan with a Defensive minded HC.
