 They all are able to tackle a runner from behind after 6-8 yards....

Uh, yea? At least they aren’t scoring on every play. Unfortunately. On third down we let them do whatever they want

I keep waiting for the Davis twins to have some impact.  How many times do we see one of them listed at the beginning of the game as an impact player/one to watch?  I’ve seen enough, they’re just not very good.  Who’s coming behind them because fixing our DL will have the most impact on seeing an improved overall defense.

Where is the juco guy, green (I think) wasn’t he touted as nfl talent. Put him in

Chase Young (I know an athletic freak) moves and bends in ways our DL doesn't.  No one on our DL plays like top tier guys.  Hell, they don't even play like Indiana guys.....They have the talent based on "stars", but don't play like it.  With technique you mentioned above, That's coaching IMHO.   

No joke, it really looks like our D-Line is just there to hold the offense lines hands. They literally do nothing. No rush, no run stop. There is just nothing good to say about the defense, period.

Sorry, you’re absolutely right that was poor wording on my part. I was trying to say that while the DBs have looked improved on the season, today showed they’re still nowhere near good enough.

I am not attacking you, it is just so unbelievable how poor this defense has been for so long. We can’t cover, can’t rush, can’t cover, we sit back and let offenses tear us apart and no adjustments, ever. So frustrating. I would rather all out blitz every pal and get beat than let everyone have their best offense performance against us week after week. How do people who do this for a living not see this?

I think they have improved, but with no rush EVER, they are trying to guard guys for 4-8 seconds.  That’s never going to work.  

Agreed on the D-Line, the passive defense is a carry over from the last staff. A four man rush hasn’t worked for us since Suh. The d may as well stand still and wait for The ball to be delivered, it would be the same effect. However, I don’t think the secondary has improved at all. They are giving up way too many easy yards constantly. The amount of 3rd and Longs this team gives up is staggering

It’s not only their fault, but Barry and Honas get targeted by OCs. Honas can make some nice plays when he’s a heat seeking missile that finds its target. But he also overruns plays all the time.

 

I think today showed that our DBs are much improved under this staff, but still not good enough.

Serious question, what game were you watching? Our dbs have improved? They were beat all day long. No picks, no big break ups, constantly a step behind or getting called for interference. Not looking for the ball, not tackling. I could continue, but there is no need. What improvement do you see? The whole defense is a joke. MAC offenses would have a field day against this d, they are an absolute nightmare. 

What I learned? Absolutely nothing. This is the same old Huskers. Stupid penalties, turnovers and passive porous defense. We have a few gamers in McCaffrey, vedral, and Robinson. It’s time to blow it up and put more freshman in. Only four games left, red shirts are safe. This defense literally can’t get worse with new starters, see what’s in the cupboard 

This is on the defense, total crap of the bed today

I would be interested to see how many 3rd and long this Defense has given up over the last two years, it must be staggering 

Welp, comes down to Maryland and Purdue......

Why are they punting? 

We really have to hope Indiana pisses down their leg right here, the defense is hopeless without help from the other team

Robinson and Luke carrying team. The defense needs to step up here big time. Show you frickin care and make a stop or a turnover. Very impressed by McCaffery

Dude has more heart then any other qb on the roster or player for that matter 

Hope he doesn’t get hurt....seems a little gimpy

The only reason I’m still watching is to see what kind of heart McCaffrey has, 

He’s #17 on the nfl draft board????? Lololololololol there is noooo way!

I quit. McCaffrey looks really good, the team just sucks butt

Here we go, testing an depth

Seriously, if I was playing against Nebraska I would never punt. I would go for it on fourth no matter what. I bet I would be successful 8 or 9 times out of 10

Not impressed with Chins defenses the past 3 years.

Not impressed? It’s freaking pathetic!

From being in total control, about to pull ahead by a couple of scores, to falling apart and making stupid huskeresque mistakes in one play........

And now we are out of plays, time to start falling apart

Do we implode now ?

Yup

I think the chin experiment is over, he is just plain bad. 

They are just constantly reacting, and reacting slowly, never aggressive and disruptive. I thought he was teaching an aggressive defense
