I hate watching this defense. Even when they are succeeding, it feels like it’s by accident. All year it has felt like this. Feels like it’s purely reactive and is never dictating anything on the field. On top of that, it may be the worst tackling team I’ve watched. Probably recency bias there but it sure feels like it
 
I love how we hire so many defensive coaches and our defense always sucks.
 
Quite a few times this year we have wondered why teams threw the ball and abandoned the run when it’s worked and O’Brien clearly saw that and has stuck with it and the expected result ensued.
 
Our defense is just bad. If we can't stop Boston College, on the ground or in the air with a backup QB, I mean, we need to adjust our expectations for the rest of the season. Our safeties miss guys coming out of the backfield or a leaking TE so often it's amazing. Even an average defense and we win this game easily.

The only success it has is by accident. It's an absolutely terrible scheme. Been saying it every week
 
Miami - SU might end up on the CW after all. Wouldn’t have thought so after last week’s results.
 
We're down 9 with 6 min left, why the hell are we running the ball? Does either coordinator have a fn clue??

Well his QB can't throw so its a little easier decision.
 
Fran is lucky he was able to find the money to pay McCord or he would be in tons of trouble. I can't state that enough whoever came up with the funds for McCord saved Fran and the season big time.
It was a program trajectory changing move.
 
Big time
Yea they were just waiting for us to stack the box...Got killed not stacking and killed stacking. They were playing chess and we were playing checkers.
Gotta figure out how to win that battle.
