Gap control, get the problems fixed, same old tired rhetoric, same old tired results. Our defense gets run over again.
Obviously shit ain't getting fixed. So what's the problem?
The players are pretty much the same.
Could it have something to do with coaching?

Pretty much the same? Am I looking at a different team? Bigby, Harris, Jenkins are out and Williams is on another team. Hawk, Barnett, Collins, and Woodson have some intense injuries on the field also. I wouldn't call this anywhere near the players being pretty much the same. 3 completely different players which leads to different players replacing the players who have moved up. So on any given snap we have 4 backups on the field, Peprah, Williams, Blackmon, and Montgomery. Those guys aren't exactly Bigby, Harris, Williams at nickel, and Jenkins.
Granted 3 of them are defensive backs, but all are pretty essential in stopping the run as well. Bigby is a big run stopper, and Harris is one of the best corners in the league at coming to the line and making tackles. Williams lines up inside on most nickel packages instead of Blackmon and is a much better nickel on run and the pass than Blackmon. Jenkins stops the run and pass amazingly, and we're not getting him back this year, so he is a really big loss. Montgomery and KGB/Hunter won't give the same production that Jenkins would.
