Fitting end for a true cuckold defense

[Maelstrom787]

Clean house on them and start over, starting with a top 5 pick in the draft. There is no other option.

You don't have the luxury of thinking QB when your team is getting emasculated every week.

Truthfully, I think the defense played better than the last several games-not that THAT is saying much but they did play better

Maybe overall, but does it really matter?

They didn't impose their will whatsoever. They don't get the crucial stops. They have no energy.

Defensive play was definitely improved over last 4 weeks.

Will the real Geno please stand up

Yes an no, they did keep the score lowish for seahawks defence standards. They also had some stops in the 4th quater that got me excited thinking 1 more touchdown and in the game. Those were at the 10 minute mark or so.

They forced 6 punts. That's 6 stops compared to 3 scores allowed, including a gimme thanks to the turnover.

Agreed, BUT I will say if Travis Homer doesn't fumble then the game is much closer, unfortunately the offense is just so bad at turning the ball over at the worse times.

 

[Maelstrom787]

They also, again, got ground down by a consistent rushing attack and lost the physicality battle decisively. In Prime time. After being supremely terrible for the past half a season.

This is, what? Like 5 or 6 hundred yard rushers in a row?

I'm sorry, it ain't good enough. They're still getting manhandled, and this team can't build an identity if they're continuing to get pushed around like this.

That was probalby the most 3 and outs forced I've seen in awhile, and if Diggs gets that INT the game is closer

And they probably will continue to get manhandled because there is a serious lack of talent on the D-line, they are who they are

If anyone at the Seahawks org is looking at THIS game and thinking it was the defense's fault, they should be fired.

Our defense has been the reason for most of our losses this year. This one wasn't on them.

Correct, this loss was on the 49ers defense...

They are very good.

That last drive by the 49ers displayed the Seahawks inept run defense. If you can’t even stop the run when you know they are just going to try to run out the last 3:38 off the clock, you know where the priority lies in the draft.

Yep. This is really the crux of it. Context.

They cannot stop people when they need to stop people.

They don't rise up. It's an energy issue.
