Congratulations on achieving the ignore list.They have the worst defense in the league by a huge margin. Reminds me of the 1981 team, which went 2-14. Sad. Couldn't stop a troop of girlscouts on 3rd and long. Comical.
Maybe they'll improve, no where to go but up. Hard to improve when you're paying big money to slugs like david harris. Loathsome sloth. And i actually like sloths.
True regarding negativity. I wish that was not the case.Well no, there will still be negativity. It will either be the defense shouldn't get other credit because the opponent sucks or because there were open receivers who got missed or " I won't be convinced until I see them do it against ____"
The bunch formation and the man in motion was definitely a problem against the Panthers.
The Lions left ****son uncovered today on a play that looked like it came right out of the low-lights from last week’s game.
I think it is worth pointing out how much McClellin is being missed. While I was not a big fan of the player last year and won't be this year I don't recall him being in the wrong spot too often. Roberts is way too often and Van Noy has done it more than is acceptable.
I think having him back will have a big impact. Not cause he will make a ton of plays but he just won't blow big 10 yards runs or leave RBs wide open out of the back field.
I think we are underrating how much just not doing those things will improve this D.
Though it is no doubt too late to finish top 10 in PPG or YPG rankings in defense I think by the end of the year they will go into the playoffs with one of the top 10 Ds in the league (just by how well they are playing) if they are healthy.
At this point a bold statement but i fully believe it. Coaching and talent will win out and they will make it work.

Wow. I expected most to have McClellin on the list due to the poor play of the LBs, but maybe I'm overthinking things.Valentine Mitchell please
Maybe we will see you next season, maybe not. Thanks for quitting on them yet again, it’s great to have the quitters jump ship early.
