Message: [QUOTE="SUFan44, post: 1873359, member: 39"] I have not watched the game again, nor do I plan to. But there were a lot of issues with the talent on the field. Kielan Whitner is really, really bad. And Hudson is not far behind (ahead). The secondary talent is simply very, very poor. And Cordy, for all of his ability stopping the run and hitting hard, is not, in my opinion, all that great as a deep safety in space. I totally agree with you that coaching is to blame for part of this - the tackling was pretty bad, discipline was very poor in containment and gap responsibility along the DL and LB positions. But there's a definite need to upgrade talent - and while I think in Shafer's attacking system these players may have made a bit of a difference with continuity and comfortability, it would not have masked the overall dearth of talent on that side of the ball.
