No idea what the game plan is on defense

The front four are getting no pressure and our corners are awful in coverage. You can color in the rest of the picture yourself.

The defense
Can Bret take over play calling a la Kirby Smart?

I understand why we aren't blitzing—we're scared the fast QB is going to burn us. I understand why we have to play zone—we don't have the guys to stick with their receivers. But man, something needs to give here. We are making this way too easy for them. Dial up something.
We might be a top 35 team but we are certainly not top 25.
Someone HAS to have had a conversation with Henry by this point in the season, right? I mean... he has every excuse under the sun why he does what he does, but it's not working. Or at the very least, it's not effective. I don't understand why he won't change the blitzing schemes (i.e. add some) or change something. What's the worst that happens? We already give up a ton of yards...
Prevent defense prevents you from winning.
It’s like we are scared on defense, we have no pass rush and are playing so passive. We can’t be that bad talent wise.
The only skill AHEN has is the press conference. He talks a good game, but results aint there. Time to cut ties and get a real coach. Sorry to say. Great guy, but he was not ready for the coordinator position and has not learned a thing since he got it.
Henry sucks...this one's already over
Defense not only has no answers…not sure they even know what the question is.
No more FGs from here on out
2 weeks for this. Our DL is just standing straight up because we are afraid of him scrambling. Pathetic

I think in that event, we’d somehow actually be better off…
With our defense, it will be a shock if we stop them at all today.
It appears our defensive game plan is to hope for dropped balls and bad throws.
We kind of are. Defense has been full of holes all season.
It’s not. We deserve the criticism. Every bit.
We basically need to score a TD on every drive.
This team just isn’t very good when they play real teams. USC might have a worse d than us, which is the only way we won that game.
Coach needs to reevaluate how he approaches the d-line. Need a new d-coordinator as well. Henry seems clueless.
