Morris predictable soft zone scheme can work against most teams when our offense is scoring 30 per game,
but it’s a train wreck right now and it should Never ever be used in that end of game scenario we just saw… 60 yards to go, 44 seconds and no timeouts.

Man times fans lack nuance. They cannot separate things. They have an agenda.
That agenda leads to posts that only attack Morris and never a single one
from any other board that thinks Morris is okay.
So, either they are a one-note board. Or we are getting things filtered by someone
with a clear agenda. The posts are 100% anti-Morris.
Gee, wonder what that agenda might be.
Truth is two things---the defense was blown on final drive and that's just a fact
However, "Morris predictable soft zone scheme can work against most teams when our offense is scoring 30 per game"
Totally false. And provably false.
The defense is better this year than last year and offense stinks, it is not scoring 30 a game.
By his logic the defense would be worse not better.
If it only works with a good offense why is it working now?
Rams defense is 6th in the NFL in fewest points allowed
Nott 28th, not 30th .Sixth.
That is without question a good defense overall. it is not
even debatable. 26 other teams' defenses allow
more points that the rams
8th in fewest yards allowed.
That is without question a good defense overall. 24 other
teams allow more yards than the Rams.
So, the question is can a good defense have a bad drive?
Of course. It's bad when it happens but it cannot, with any intelligence,
be used to indict the defense as a whole.
The big lie that people tell is that the defense is bad.
The defense is good and has been good. It's just not
the 2000 Ravens or the 49ers defense.
And it fell apart on the last drive. It's life, it's football.
That happens and it stinks. But for this poster to
translate a failed drive to condemning a successful defense
overall is the epitome of lacking fairness.
And the second lie people are telling is that the offense
played well enough to win. it didn't,
So when we get another post from another board that tells
one side of the story, it's easy to see that the Fire/hate Morris
agenda is strong and undeniable.
But, hey,what do I know, maybe after two years we will get a
single post that has an opposing view on Morris from that
board.
I am sure that will happen any day now.
