jahnyc Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 I understand that our defense has injuries, but other than being opportunistic at times, they can never get off the field. Considering the resources that have been devoted to the defense (drafting Dareus, Sheppard and Williams this past year, signing Barnett and Morrison, re-signing Florence), their play has been terrible. A good part of the blame must go to to the defensive coordinator and the defensive game plan. Our defense has made Sanchez and Romo look like all world QBs. Changes need to be made.
John Adams Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 Yeah, why can't they fix the defense in one year? Losers.
ganesh Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 Yeah, why can't they fix the defense in one year? Losers. Actually they have been drafting for the defense the past two seasons... Troupe, Carrington last year, Dareus, Williams, Sheppard, Batten this year...Plus FA Merriman, Barnett and re-signed Florence...I think they have spent enough on the defense with little to show far. It is time for Edwards to go.
thurman34 Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 I agree...we definitely have addressed the defensive side of the ball through the draft and free agency. It's clear that our schemes and matchups are the main reasons for our struggles. Edwards needs to go and either promote Wannsteadt or look elsewhere...

Santana Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 Yeah our defense isn't schemed correctly for this game. No blitzes or stunts to confuse Romo, he's just back there playing a pick-up game. Playing way too far off of the receivers. Just getting outplayed.
Zulu Cthulhu Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 I was told there would be no new threads during gametime
Big Turk Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 It really is inexcuseable for them to be that bad, and it all falls back to a scheme that allows receivers to be wide open...same as last year...let them catch it wherever they want and then try and tackle them...problem is they always catch the ball past the first down marker... George Edwards is horrible, has been horrible his whole career here and just needs to go...until he goes, this defense will stink
BuffaloBillsMagic1 Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 Yeah our defense isn't schemed correctly for this game. No blitzes or stunts to confuse Romo, he's just back there playing a pick-up game. Playing way too far off of the receivers. Just getting outplayed. Agreed, if we had a Ryan coaching our defense we would be better than average. Too much space receivers have because we have no effective blitz packages or don't even try.
vorpma Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 No one is suggesting they can fix or overhaul the defense in one or even two years.
JM57 Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 I was told there would be no new threads during gametime I'm not sure what you've been watching but the game ended a good two hours ago....
EldaBillsFan Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 Edwards is Horrible.....can't just line man to man anymore
Jim in Anchorage Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 I was told there would be no new threads during gametime That only counts if it's a game, not a joke.
Santana Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 Agreed, if we had a Ryan coaching our defense we would be better than average. Too much space receivers have because we have no effective blitz packages or don't even try. couldn't agree more
HelloNewman Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 (edited) Over 400+ yards allowed on a consistent basis....this guy cannot coach his way out of a paper bag. He is frequently out-coached and slow to make adjustments. Granted the talent he has to work with is playing like a one legged man in an a$$ kicking contest; but he is not putting these players in a position to be successful. Time to let him go.

BuffaloBillsMagic1 Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 I think we have more than enough talent, we play too soft. Officialy request a "Fire Edwards" thread to be spun off this.
Celeron Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 (edited) George Edwards has go to go! Edited November 13, 2011 by Celeron
KOKBILLS Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 The Edwards experiment MUST end...Enough is enough...This guy HAS to go...Today would not be soon enough either...
cage Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 Actually they have been drafting for the defense the past two seasons... Troupe, Carrington last year, Dareus, Williams, Sheppard, Batten this year...Plus FA Merriman, Barnett and re-signed Florence...I think they have spent enough on the defense with little to show far. It is time for Edwards to go. Precisely,... they've spent plenty of high picks on Defense with nothing to show for it. They are just so frustrating to watch when the defense plays like this. I would definitely fire Edwards. There's no reason he should stay. No one is suggesting they can fix or overhaul the defense in one or even two years. Why shouldnt we expect that it can be done in 2 years... what should it take 4-5?
Spiderweb Posted November 13, 2011 Posted November 13, 2011 The Edwards experiment MUST end...Enough is enough...This guy HAS to go...Today would not be soon enough either... Sadly, who takes his place? Wanny? Wanny I'm sure has had his input, and maybe even some play calling as well and the results speak for themselves. Yet, a statement needs to be made to the defense that what they have done is unacceptable.
