This staff coaches like they still do not know any kind of depth chart. Whoever they think are the ones and two should be on the field most of the time and the lower rated players should not get caught on the field as much. Too many times guys I have not seen all year are on the field trying to compete against Big10 starters and it just does not work. The gap between big time players who belong in the B10 and players who should never be on the field results in long plays and often long TDs.
Lovie and his staff are not getting any semblance of a disciplined defense on the field. The basics each play for any defense is; who has each gap, which way does the line slant, who has containment and boundary coverage, and secondary coverage all DBs must be in sync. The defense players seem lost. If they are lost in games it is because they must be lost at practice and the coaches must not know it. You can't change 80 players so you have to change the coaches. the right coaches will not come here and start saying "We have to rebuild stuff". Use what we got, start where we are and start getting it done. Be competitive right away.
