The defense does not have the players to stop anybody. Goff is good enough with the first team offense healthy. First pick DL, second first round pick CB, second round pick RB.
I joked that Campbell would start calling the defense, but I suspect he will spend all week in defensive meeting rooms. They won’t fire Glenn, but they may shuffle coaching responsibilities down the chain.
Like I said in the other thread, if they sign Lamar Jackson, let’s hope he can play safety.
And maybe we don’t need Jaymo on offense. Can he play corner opposite Jeff Okudah?
Lions now lead the league in TDs with 18. Philly and Baltimore have 15.
If the Lions sign Lamar Jackson next season, he better be able to play safety like Ed Reed.
Hutch is dinged. Paschal is injured. Levi is injured. Melifonwu is injured. What did Glenn have to do with that?
If anything the blame is on Holmes for gambling on an injured DL in the second round and for missing (?) on Kerby Joseph. Fourth round and later is a crap shoot and he hit on Rodrigo.
But Glenn did get outcoached today. He never figured out what to do with the counter bootleg. Seattle did it all day.
The whole defense looks awful today. They have injuries with no depth on DL or in secondary, and they have been weak at linebacker for years.
The post I was responding to was SOL-ing about this staff's inability to identify or develop talent. Okudah is markedly better than he was under Fatricia.
