On Getting Torched by Brandon Lloyd

I figured Lloyd would have a big game against us...he was catching everything in sight and badly beat our beleaguered secondary too many times. Two things account for that...lack of pressure on Orton and DB's who can't cover a good WR like him. Clements and Mays both got beat like a drum. I'll still give Mays a rookie discount...but he'll need to make a lot more plays in the 2nd half of the season. One guy who did look pretty good was Will James...I wouldn't mind seeing him replace Clements.

Lack of pressure...every game, the QB has 5 seconds to throw the ball. We never EVER blitz.
I heard the commentators a few weeks ago talking about how Manusky trusts the front 3 to get pressure...except that they don't.

blitzing would put the corners one on one and people already don't like the corner situation. Bit of a catch 22 for Manusky.

It's lack of pass rush + sucky secondary = Brandon Lloyd legendary performance vs 49ers.
the end.
the end.

I dont think Manusky plays his cards right. He's under the impression that Clements is our best cover guy, and should therefore be lined up against the opposition's best receiver. I think he would get better results if he isolated Clements with the number 2 guy, and let Spencer/Mays roll over to the number 1 guy.

Any secondary can suck if you let a QB have time.
Our DLine has potential!! but I always see the bull rush and not enough technique

No way Will James sucks. He should get cut. He's been getting burned on nickel coverage. He gave up the TD to Lloyd in the 4th quarter. Even against Carolina he was giving up chunks of yardage.
BTW it was Spencer who got beat like a drum in consecutive weeks. Last week Gettis got him on the game tying TD, this week he got beat deep by Lloyd on the play action fake by Orton who froze Mays with it and Spencer let Lloyd right by him.

We need a whole new secondary.

It's obvious that we need to use our first round draft pick on a good cover corner. That way we can blitz the QB because we will be able to trust our corners covering one on one.

We should have drafted a CB last year but instead we waste to two first picks on Oline.

3 versus 5 is never going to get pressure. He might need to rethink that...

And so you would have selected Kareem Jackson at 17 instead of Mike Iupati?
Jackson has looked horrible.
And as I recall, you wanted neither.
How are Clausen and Spiller doing so far?

Its still early in their careers. I still think that Clausen is gonna turn into a good player. He just needs a season under his belt. Spiller has made some big plays but he's still learning.
Trading up to draft Davis is starting to look like a mistake but its still early in the process.
