Absolutely not. Every drive by the opposing team is 10 plays or longer. The opposing team NEVER punts. We consider it great defense if we hold them to a FG.
It's bottom 10 defense with young talent that isn't progressing... except Gary. Look at Alexander and Clark. Are they better than they were a year ago?
7 games in, and I think the coaching is bad on both sides of the ball.
What team are we undeniably better than? I haven't seen Carolina play, but we'll have a chance to see in a few weeks. We truly have a chance to get the 1st or 2nd pick in the draft.
The only thing I'd bet on right now is that our first round pick won't progress.
