The defense isn't inspiring confidence.
Let's hope this is not a preseason trend, since preseason trends tend to be regular-season headaches.

we look weak both on both sides of the ball. Getting out coached for sure already

1 game isn't a trend. But we are supposed to be DB rich. Even our 2nd and 3rd string DBs should be doing a better job.
I'm seeing missed assignment, bad angles, and poor tackling techniques.

The LBs aren't doing great either and we aren't consistently setting the edge.
Sure, 1st game and all. 1 game isn't a trend.

But man, after all the issues and the depth we have at DB - we shouldn't be this weak against BOTH the run and pass.

Okay...their rookies and scrubs are kicking the shyt out of ours so far. I think we can agree on that.

So fall I like Hall, Mafe, Morris and Coby at Safety

One game is not a trend but like 5 seasons of bad D is.

I don't see much "coaching" going on. Both teams are running vanilla stuff with back-of-roster players to evaluate their team.

I feel better about the D right now than I did in 2022's opener
