More greatness from Eberflus (and Whitecotton, whom I assume has something to do with the DL rotation)


Tbf to Eberflus (which I really hate to do) both were a complete no-show against the run, combining for only 1 solo tackle and 1 assisted tackle. This despite Clark playing a season high 73.1% of defensive snaps in the game. He's washed imo. The Packers knew it.

A famous coach who won a bunch of Super Bowls and was considered a defensive mastermind said "Good players cannot overcome bad coaching, it's impossible"

This........and I can't say that we have good players but they're good enough to not be dead last in the NFL. Eberflus has lost the D. And part of it is because guys like Diggs are not buying into the scheme. A good coach would pivot and do what his players do well. But sometimes coaches are so entrenched in their philosophy that they can't pivot. This D is a replay of Marinelli and Nolan and even Zimmer. It's a bend and don't break scheme that's ok.....until it breaks.

Although we all saw it happen in the 1995 season. But those were GREAT players and we don't have those. Or very many good ones either.
