This team just isn't very good.

I bought the hype I admit it. I thought that Mac would turn this team around quickly. The reality is that this is a bottom 1/3rd of the league team right now. Will they get better? I think so. it doesn't make it any easier to watch though. The team I watched the last two games might be the worst defense in the NFL. The wheels have completely fallen off the wagon. Missed tackles, no pressure, busted assignments with receivers wide open almost every play. They look absolutely lost out there. I see 7 wins, zero shot at playoffs. Were going to have to draft O line and D line exclusively. I wouldn't be shocked if traded DK in the next couple weeks.
The O-line is just a complete disaster. They have to do something. How can you be that bad at run blocking AND pass protection? you can't be even decent at one aspect?
We're going to get boat raced Thursday night. I hate to admit it, but the east coast NFL pundits were right.

It's been said by many experts from the Ravens side that it takes a while of adjustment to Macdonalds scheme already. And also Pete's teams struggled the first couple years too until they got their guys in. I agree about both trenches which are extremely important but that is not a Macdonald thing but leftovers from Pete and Schneider.

Yep, nothing good is free. This is going to take a while to fix.

Lions: 516 total yards
Giants: 420 total yards

936 yards in two games is a failure across the board defensively.

Almost zero pass rush is responsible for how terrible we look

I think we got excited from our start, but now see the reality of what this team is.

Also who's the key missing??? .. Ill go: Murphy.

When 1 player is commanding 2-3 people at a time it opens up the defense to feast.
