So sick and tired of these 3-man rush defenses that get 0 pressure. The most upsetting part is that it is correctable. It's all scheme, not personnel. Heacock's refusal to change is maddening. Great year ruined by this terrible base defense.
3-3-5 Defense Cost Us An 8-0 Start.

Heh, so what exactly have you seen out of the current DL lineup that makes you think they would start getting pressure if you added in another one?
Hell, you could run a 5-2-4 and I don't think you're seeing much difference.

I don't like the scheme either but until we can recruit or pay guys that can actually cause disruption in the backfield we are in trouble.
How would you ever know? We don't ever change to try anything else. What we are doing hasn't worked in 2 seasons. 3-3-5 works with Will McDonald because he's a legit 1st round NFL rusher. Hasn't worked since.
I'd say losing both scholarship kickers and two starting NFL-caliber defensive backs cost us that opportunity.
the denfense coaches are a stuborn ********
Going to go out on a limb here and say that the more likely reason that this team isn't 8-0 is because it has guys that for instance, walk into the ball while it's damn near motionless on the ground during a punt.
Kickers didn't give up 31 points in 2 qtrs to Cincinnati. And our rush defense isn't hurt by losing corners. Every team loses players, but refusal to change when you do is on the coaches.
Yep, we just did and gave up a TD but with this team I'd still blitz every down.
**** it, might as well. Doesn't matter what position or coverage type you put the DBs in, they aren't going to be able to compete.
That punt screw up and Becht pick 6 were totally because of the 3-3-5.
Yea, it is a well known fact that anyone playing a 3 man front will make 3 turnovers in a game giving up 17 points.
Secondary is so bad. Time for this staff to go! No discipline, out of position and bad tackling. CMC may need to take Pedo State job as this season is over.
