Seems like our D coordinators are akways in the hot seat (Capers, Pettine, Barry). Will be Nice to get a break this week hopefully with the defense playing so well with so many starters out.

    I have my gripes with how Barry has run the defense. That said, he is greatly exceeding my expectations today. If they close the win out, I will be eating crow instead of turkey for thanksgiving.

      Minus the whole cornerbacks playing off coverage on short yardage situations which they’ve all said he gives them the choice there, I’m fine with it for the most part. We just need to be bad for a few years to rebuild.

    The middle of the field was wide open and the Lions just failed to take advantage.

    That said, there is a weakness in every defensive alignment. The pass rush was getting home so Berry didn’t need to change that. He also has a Practice Squad secondary right now. So he gets a pretty big pass for missing his top 5 players in the secondary.
