Defensive Achilles heels

[CajunVic]

Wow, I wasn't aware that Desormeaux's coaching staff has played/lost a grand total of 1 game over the course of 2 years.

. . . this is not the NFL . . . rosters change materially every year by graduation and transfers in and out . . . our first game this year was very vanilla in scheme and only showed the minimum necessary to not put the game in jeopardy of losing . . . we stunk up defensively in scheme, play and performance as players and staff on Saturday . . . I have confidence that both players and coaches have room for improvement . . . I wagered on the Cajuns in game 1 and 2 and put a wager that we would win more than 7.5 games this season, but I am not willing to throw out the baby with the bath water this early in the season . . .

I don't disagree with you. Players and coaches can evolve year to year. And I'll even take your point a step further--players and coaches can also grow and develop over the course of a single season. But there's definitely precedent for fans to have their doubts after last season.

. . . precedent says fans posting on this board are the most doubtful fans in the universe . . . and they express it loudly, deservingly or not . . .

You must not venture far from home.

You must not venture far from home.

. . . some of the universe is pretty far from home . . .

I was worried about the secondary before the season started, now more than ever. Secondly, the defense cannot seem to handle the "hurry up" offense. Coach Morgen may be able to address the problem with the hurry up, but the secondary is what it is.

I am not an expert by any stretch of the imagination. Am I missing something?

Hopefully coach Morgen shares his changes with DC Morgan.

[Crawfish]

Wow, you found a typo. I am impressed!

That would be nice.

That or you don’t know what the DCs name is.

[CajunVic]

. . . either way, hopefully that was his worst performance as a Louisiana coach . . .
