Defensive Grade game 1

[KeyserSoze1999]

According to the sign our Defensive Staff put up in the locker room we didn't accomplish #1, #2, and #5. So 2 out of 5 is 40%---"F" also giving up the 99 yard drive for a TD is unforgivable.

It was a fail. I'm not throwing sermon under the bus just yet. The talent in the secondary is swac level and that might be generous.

5-9 to 5-11, 4.7 - 4.9 speed, 180 lbs, no instincts, no nastiness, just bodies to place in a uniform and pretend to do your job. Durr looked ok though. The lone spot that wasn't entirely a **** sandwich.

Our problem isn't the talent in the secondary.

We have TONS of talent in the secondary. No football players though.

When playing a mediocre Sun Belt team, the defensive goal should be to score more points than the opponent's offense. The fact that giving up 17 (appropriately) was an actual stated goal is um... concerning.

 

[rugbdawg]

Those are season goals.

Not individual game goals set for the particular opponent. Hell, if we give up 17 or less in all of our games, we probably go 10-2. We would be 1-0 right now.

 

[tatedog]

We aren't holding anyone under 17. We'll have a hard time keeping SEC opponents under 17 per half and in some cases per quarter.

I don't know that the secondary is swac level but our corners are the worst in the sec and I don't even think it's close. I don't think we broke up a single pass Saturday.

 

[rugbdawg]

Yea. When setting unrealistic goals, you might as well set them high. How about no TDs allowed as a goal?

 

[The Riddler]

Is there anything lower than f. We looked lost in coverage. We have talent in secondary is somebody's fall back position then you are going to have to show me where it is.
