I am very frustrated as a fan and I am no expert on coaches or schemes. I think Golden is the right head coach for this team because he has the CEO mentality. This offseason will tell the story on whether he can separate friendship from business and make changes to his staff that are needed. This D is the most frustrating group I have every tried to watch. Even I knew when the RB motioned to the sideline the pass was going to go to him. The D seemed to ask like it was a new play ever time they saw it.
T
he one point that I think we are missing here is how well the D played in the first few games, including UF. What didn't happen is a constant change in how we do things. Our players may not understand our D but our opponents do. Do we think the crossing routes every other play are by accident? If a base scheme is so hard you can never build off of it because people don't know where to be that is an issue. That might be the biggest reason for our late season challenges. Maybe going forward our players can ask the OC for the team we are playing where they should be on each play.
