The downgrading of the defense in the offseason (ala not extending TH) will equate to a worse defense this season than last season. The defense is PURE trash and CTB sits at the top of the heap. They literally could have cut their entire defense save TH, brought in a team of free agents, and done better than what they're going to do with what they have. Wait and see lol
Sorry, but what you say here is complete bullshit. CTB didn't even play last night. Never heard of anything as stupid as just cutting the
entire Defense full of youth and early round picks to bring in a team of Free Agents, just crazy talk without any solution.

Those guys on the field tonight did the same exact things the starters from last year did, YET they are coached by the SAME DC this year. If THEY are foing the same things, and being that they are being coached by the same coach, what on earth would make you think things will be any better this year with the D starters against the oppositions starting O?? The reality is that the defense has college level talent on D, not NFL level talent and all a top college level DC will be able to do with college level talent is mold a top college level defense, which will equate to a bottom, or close to the bottom NFL defense. Don't fool yourself into thinking anything different. Ive seen this story play out way too many times.
So you new to this Offseason? We fired Lou and almost all the Defensive coaches and hired Golden as DC and a new Defensive staff.
One preseason game against the Champs does not make me want to jump off a cliff like you. Again, just crazy and you don't even know the team.
Your story is your own.

Many here have said Golden’s new scheme alone would improve the defense. So why didn’t our 2’s play better against the eagles 2’s? We saw the exact same type of play from the defense as we did for 17 games last year. A new scheme isn’t going to fix bad players. We have bad bad players, period. We didn’t do anything to address the D Line, linebackers, or secondary. Sorry rookies don’t count, as they didn’t count for much last night
So you aren't counting on any growth out of the youth under the new Defensive staff? You won't even give them a few preseason games
before giving up on them? News flash, the Eagles are way ahead of us and are a much deeper team on Defense. Cannot believe this was a
surprise to you guys, but you never fail to amaze me with your glass half empty ways.
You are like a battery that is only hooked up to the negative post. I don't even know how you work lol

So you are joining the Gameday thread lunacy are yah Harley? I prefer reality myself. You are a funny guy though and are probably just
messing with me.
