Ultimately, if our DL sucks, it's on him and Golden to identify guys he wants and get them to sign on the dotted line. If we can't bring in good DT, not having them can't be an excuse for why our defense is constantly getting shredded.
And if our DL can't get pressure, throw in some blitzes.

It's funny watching elementary-level football talk. "Throw in some blitzes", like this is the same level of complication as in your back yard football game.
He's been on more then a few in homes already this year. Just visited Carter at the airport today according to Pete
Unfortunately, guys hear a few loud voices and just fall in line with the group think on stuff like this instead of examining football history. They start puppeting the part lines like "we can't line up right" and all the other nonsense spewed about Duh' all year, and before you know it, you have a feeding frenzy based off of one down year. Follow a corch's track record. These guys don't get sudden amnesia. They don't take blunt force traumas and suddenly get stupid. If a guy's done it in the recent past, then there's probably a good bet he can still do it.
I think it's unfair to judge the guy at this point based on what he was working with this year. It all starts up front, and when you're stuck with slugs (Darius ****, Shayon, Luther, etc.) or young dudes who aren't physically ready to compete at a high level (look at all the freshmans and first-time starters we were using this year), you can't expect much more than what you got. Then, mix in the up tempo offense, which was installed because Al knew we'd have to win shootouts this year, along with key injuries and suspensions to your best players, and you wind up with a **** stew.
Franchise: just curious why you spell coach, corch? no disrespect intended

Google it.
Never mind. Here
A particularly inept coach, especially one who manages to evade firing by having talented players on his or her roster. As a coach becomes more and more useless, the "a" slowly morphs into an "r."
Alternately, "Corch" may be used as a verb, as in, to "Corch" a kid up.
Inadvertently coined by U.S. Rep. Corrine Brown on the House floor (in reference to "Corch Irvin Myers" of Florida).
ESPN Analyst #1: How did USC go from pre-season #1 to a middle-of-the Pac football team?
ESPN Analyst #2: Lane Kiffin is one helluva Corch.
Drunk College Student #1: Another top recruiting class for our SEMINOLES!
Drunk College Student #2: Don't worry- I'm sure Jimbo will Corch 'em up.
Fan #1: You think the Chargers are gonna finally take advantage of their talent and reach the big game?
Fan #2: Naw, man. Norv Turner is the Corchiest Corch that ever Corched.

Corch
Bowling term meaning to adjust the ball speed, spin, and placement in order to knock down more pins. Spelling is an augmentation of the word "coach."
Robert: Wow, that was a terrible shot, I only knocked down two pins.
Anne Marie: You reall need to corch the ball more, and you should do better.

I have faith in our DL, Chick will be a Junior and the young guys will have some experience behind them. Dominant? doubtful, but at the end of the day they were very close to being 9-3, I know it goes the other way as well, but I like our chances. There's not one team on the schedule next year I count as an automatic L.
Seriously! Our staff has been a carousel within the college coaching carousel. It's ridiculous already. Continuity **** it! Reassess next year.
If you can't get to the QB with 4, you need to bring extra bodies. I'm in agreement with Pimp.

Correct. We blitzed plenty. And sometimes when you blitz you leave an inexperienced back end on an island, and you might wind up getting torched for 99 yards like what happened to Jenkins against Duke. Live by the blitz; die by the blitz.
For realz?

not with this team mane
it did help later in the year just to make some QB's A LITTLE uncomfortable
but when you have no natural rushers like us it just leaves the secondary exposed
90% of the time ****** were just running into an OL like that was all they had to do
I don't know that I see this as a big deal either way. Would have been nice to have something shiny and new, but without defensive lineman it's hard to imagine any new defensive coordinator, installing yet another new defense, would be the solution. There's no question the defensive line was a joke and the injuries hurt last year, but there's also no question there are issues with the overall defense. I am not a fan of shuttling in 40 different players every couple of series. There are definitely issues with players not knowing their assignments and frequently occurring breakdowns at inopportune times.
Al and crew need to get some new bodies who can help right away, develop the **** out of the talent that's on the roster, and also tweak their scheme/implementation to at minimum get everyone the same page better for next season. Great defensive lineman are most definitely scarce, but in year 3 there's no excuse to not having enough division 1 level players to form an average rotation.

This is just my theory on that but I think the coaches knew they were going to struggle a ton on defense this year. I think we shuttled so many guys because they wanted to play everyone, get everyone on game tape, see what they had and evaluate from there. Sacrifice a little this year for the betterment of the future. I think we will see a tighter rotation in the years to come.
I would think our D saw more players take meaningful snaps then anyone else in the country. We did play a ton of players.
We played a ish ton of players to a detriment, IMO. Mass substitutions all game long.
What really chapped my *** were the subs at safety. Why did #2 come off the field again?
