This defense will never be respected ever again

Every starting player on the defense can hit the road as far as I am concerned. Absolute garbage, every last one of them.

Let it go. We're in the playoffs. Lets kick some NO butt.

The D-line is highly overrated

I agree.. Absolutely fecal matter..

the DBs are horrific...every fucking one of them.

And they had to run around for 10 seconds out there because the d-line can't get pressure on a back-up QB protected by an o-line with half its starters.

Bad DBs + zero pressure = record setting day

Yep, and Stafford deserves a medal for coming back from all the times the defense has failed him this year.

It's crazy how all of these good teams have such bad defenses. This is not your father's NFL anymore. You don't need to run the ball well and you don't need a good D. You need a stud QB.

Mkay. Nah, not gonna happen. Any faith I had in the Lions defense appear to be nothing more than a pipedream after watchin them today.

Stafford is the real deal, that is half the battle in today's NFL. We will be a good team as long as he and CJ are healthy and together.

The Entire D Line blows 6 ways to Sunday and I blame the wide 9 for most of it.

 

[boogerlovejoy]

Schwartz should embarrass the D publicly. Hopefully, they would come out next week with a chip on their shoulder and do enough for our O to shock New Orleans.

Probably not.....but that's what I'm holding on to.

I remember a great poster on these boards said around game 4 that this d-line was over rated. That was one smart poster.

Why does Gunther keep using the damn wide nine? The Blitzes in it are so predicable.. We have been getting torched for weeks, Rodgers, Plamer,Romo, Ryan, Webb, Flynn, Brees, Monster, KC. Anyone.. Changes need to be made on the defensive coaching side. This game plan today was unacceptable..

Tough for the dine to get pressure when every receiver is wide open from the snap of the ball.

5th overall and 1 sack out of 3rd. I think the dine can rush the passer.
