Dorian who just got knocked on his ass by a running back?

Yes I’m glad you said that. He fought through a block got knocked down got up and still made the tackle for a 1.5 yard gain. Absolutely him. Funny to see you when your defense looks on schedule as usual 

[Urban Achievers]

I hate our defense so much … McD value to this team is no longer valid (hasnt been for years). 
 

take Bobby and Brady with you. I truly don’t care anymore about him being a nice guy.

Lackawanna HS … McDs buffoons… can’t stop shite!

[Bookie Man]

Bernard might the worst starting LB in in NFL vs the run.

Bucs top 2 receivers aren’t even playing. 

Think about that.

 

 

Or their starting RB

[ALLinALLEN]

It’s like plugging holes on a sinking ship with this team.  

[Aesop]

The 3rd and long issue is getting annoying at this point. Trust me, I am a big McD fan. But this has to be coaching. Like the play call. I understand if your sending 5 or 6, your gonna leave something open. But i feel like we leave something open there even when rushing 4.

Soft zone!!! Every fi'n time.

 

It's extremely frustrating 

[VaMilBill]

This defense sucks. We’ve always predicated our defensive philosophy on not giving up the big play. But now we get death by 1000 cuts in addition to big plays. Our defense is old as sin.
 

It’s time to ditch McDermott. Same story every season. We need different ideas. 

[YoloinOhio]

We get a high draft pick? The straws are being grasped

Get Poyer out of there

He's literally the only one making tackles on defense.  That was the first time he wasn't in on one. 😆

[Toledo Bill]

I guess"back to basics" doesn't include basic defense.

[JoshAllin]

How do you fall off this bad on D after Car and KC's game

[Billzgobowlin]

And who is calling the defense again? The 3rd down call and the next play is the ru n for a TD. 

The call on defense doesn't cause a long run, it's no one winning one on one battles

[Low Positive]

I just can't take these long runs for TDs anymore. There has to be something that they can do to stop them. 

[billsherd]

Hope Allen doesn't feel the pressure on this drive and  do something stupid.

3rd and 12 and we play prevent 🤣

5 defenders 10 yards behind the sticks. Bobby B must be back on the call sheet.

Our linebackers are the reason for that run, no where near the play

You might want to check out the guy who is supposed to funnel that back inside Bosa.
