Was it Steele or Flagg who messed up on the 4th and 9.

[Odin]

When we were up 21-17 and had momentum Duke went on an 18 play drive and dominated from there on.On that drive they converted 2 4th downs and 1 was a 4th and 9.Flagg was the only one in the middle but he back peddled about 20 yds to where the safeties were and allowed an easy 1st down.Did Steele call that crap or did Flagg messe up and loss where he was.

Steele as Flagg is a downhill LB and bad in space. Don’t expect that to ever change! Steele should know the best personnel to put on the field by now OR don’t have him drop back.

 

[Southbeach44]

Gotta be on the call. Steele is at fault. I am about done with his old washed up ***.

 

[canesbrah]

Bro Flagg was past the safeties and left the RB wide open. That **** is etched in my memory.
It was third and 12 I think

 

[Mr. Dynasty1]

I truly do not believe Steele told Flagg to drop back to midfield but hey it also wouldn’t surprise me

 

[Noliaboi]

I don’t know how Steele keeps getting a pass

 

[k9cane]

our Steele has rusted

Mutual effort on the play they both take blame.

 

[BLIMPTOWN]

Steele done turned into aluminum foil

 

[SayWhat]

Flagg dropped all the way to safety and Williams came up to play the back.

I'd say Williams is better in coverage, but why design it like that? Flagg should never be the last defender back there in the middle of the field.

Strange call for sure.

 

[avicenna75]

Flagg was pretty non existent all game.

 

[Memnon]

I legit thought Steele would be much better as DC this season, I was definitely wrong on that.

I wasn’t too fond on the Gattis & Ponce hires to say the least, but I’ll hold a L on the Steele hire.

And what’s up with Charlie Strong & Addae, do the 2 of them even attend Defensive meetings?

The 3 units of the Defense look like they don’t even know they play on the same team, like it’s their first time seeing each other on Saturdays lol

I still feel we need a OC more than a DC

 

[RozayCane]

Flagg has absolutely no business still playing over the freshmen at this point.

Should only play on special teams next year.

 

[KingCane20]

I don’t understand Steele. He was good everywhere else. I watched dude at Auburn tear **** up. It’s like he forgot how to coach.

Charlie Strong, knows defense, but wtf? Everyone here knows Flagg and 4 aren’t good together. Everyone knows Flagg isn’t a 3 down lb. **** is crazy..

Preach all you see is fire Gattis around this mf and defense looks worse than Manny’s or just as bad.

 

[CDWright40]

Steele’s job is to call a defense that puts players in position to make plays and prevent the offense from scoring.

Duke had 5 drives that started inside our 40. Our defenders were in position to make plays all day. Our tackling is

Flagg was pretty non existent all game.

Except whiffing on the 3rd & goal tackle of the QB at the 5 yd line.

 

[Caned Peach]

One of Steele's biggest issues today was not dialing up another 7 turnovers. Dude effed big time on that.
