Yah
How many more collapses from Flus as time winds down will it take to recognize that problem? I'm not blaming the D as the root cause of loss, of course not. It is the utilization of the defense as the game ends. Flacco had 200 yards in the 4th alone out of 375, each scoring drive was less than 10 plays and each drive took less than 2:30min to score. Flus is loosening the laces after 3 quarters repeatedly, and he isn't adjusting to it causing losses. What's the stat, something like 48-7 in points scored in the 4th for the year?
We know Getsy calls it like he wants to be fired. It is already an uphill battle. I think Fields did fine taking what the D was producing and helped to keep the Bears in front. Offensive playcalling often keeps them off the Field because Getsy just wants to run the clock out in an ineffective manner.
This like the 5th time this season defense has looked like the best defense im the L for 88% of the game and then completely falls apart. Once is a anomaly, twice is concerning. Anything more than that its directly on the coach.
Yeah the D is playing great for a majority of the game but I fail to see how another competent d coordinator couldnt have this team doing the same next year anyway. Flus n getsy gots to go. This was an important litmus test and its obvious them nikkas are just have 0 feel for how to call a complete game
