The losses the last two years have been embarrassing. Like when the packers fired their special teams coach after the 49ers blocked two punts last year. Sometimes the game forces your hand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Einstein Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 I’ve resisted this idea for a long time. I’ve ignored these “fire frazier” posts for a long time. But I’m now on board. WAY too many miscommunications, wide open guys, timeouts needing to be taken on defense, methodical drives, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreboding Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Our guys didn't cover, our lines didn't get a push. Seems to me we need some new players. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is the issue. How do you change the defense with McDermott as head coach. That is supposed to be his forte. McDermott takes no ownerhsip of the offense, and lets face it, he is not a top tier game day coach. So if he hires a DC with free reign, what is the purpose of McDermott being here.

And in a lot ways it’s deserved. But, I’m over his defense. I’ve been over it since last year, he then started to win me back holding together the D through so many injuries. But last week and this week showed his defense is a liability come playoff time, just like it’s always been in every playoff exit we have had. More importantly, his entire defensive scheme is as a DISADVANTAGE in bad weather. Offense already has an advantage in bad weather because they know where they are going on each play. Defenders have to play off a little more in bad weather, and that just completely disrupts our defensive scheme and gives opponents wide open targets to just pick apart Fraziers D. They won’t fire McD after what this team went through this year, but I hop we make a change at DC. NOTE: Also hope we see Dorsey leave so we can get a more seasoned and creative OC in here. No way they fire him, but hope he gets the Carolina job. Sadly I doubt either gets a HC job and doubt either gets fired. I think I finally have to agree. We need a more aggressive defense and that's not what Frazier coaches. I also was not impressed with Dorsey. It seems our offense worked in spite of him, not because of him. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We seem to play soft schematically in the playoffs or vs anyone that threatens the defense. That is definitely coaching philosophy. I don’t think Frazier should get all the blame. Most of it has to fall on McDermott. I do think we need to see changes on defense because this system isn’t good enough. We can’t trust Von Miller to be healthy and save them. I haven’t seen anything in our young pass rushers to believe they can become difference makers. Rousseau with Von Miller was different. Once teams focused on him he was nothing: They might need to invest in pass rush help again this offseason if they stick with the scheme.

DuckyBoys Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 I think a shakeup in coaching at least give you hope Were not winning anything with a undersized soft defense and this O line. Least Frazier gone would mean we might see game specific defense Its the same thing every week no matter what team they play Brandon Beane better hit some hrs as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soft coverage and zero pass rush vs those WRs it was easy to see the mismatch. They’ve missed on DL draft picks and it cost them. Ball coming out so quick, Von Miller wasn't the factor today.

LeGOATski Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 I agree that Frazier's time is done. Dorsey, as a first time coordinator can build upon this. But Frazier has hit the ceiling. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 9 minutes ago, Buffalo_Stampede said: Why does everyone have to get fired when you lose in the playoffs? Because this was a complete beat down and complete domination. I would also argue... our season has ended each year in the playoffs... because the defense plays soft and comes up small in these games... maybe not in KC in 2020... but in Houston, KC last year, today. The defense is completely out schemed, out played and exposed. You cant keep coming back to the same well and hope you finally get lucky. Do something and find a way to get over the hump. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed...schematically they allow too much to try and take something away and against really good teams in the playoffs it's able to be exposed too frequently.

He is pure, unadulterated trash that chokes and gets outcoached every single postseason. Frazier doesn’t decide our scheme against McD’s will. He’s an extension of him. Bringing them all back is waving the white flag on the future. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
