Just terrible by the front 7

ash is such a clown show

 

[dang227]

Get off the damn blocks d line.

They don’t disengage at all.

 

[RocketIsmail25]

Please light Chris Ash on fire and body slam him onto a bed of rusty tacks.

 

[IrishEyesAreSmiling]

god im livid

 

[ColoradoIrish]

This one year defensive regression is something else. Not sure I've ever seen anything like this with such little personnel turnover.

 

[FOTY977]

Tarmac.

 

[NDFAN2008]

This DL sucks

 

[RocketIsmail25]

Oh FFS, I have the same shirt as Ash on.

 

[ndfanatic78]

Freeman fucked the Ash hire all up. This is worse than the OC hire. He had plenty of time to find the right guy.

 

[MacIrish75]

Absolutely an illegal motion by the OL lined up as a fullback.

 

[sfk324]

They don't like the coach they're playing for and it's painfully obvious

"I don't like my coach, so I'm going to put bad tape out" is definitely a smart decision. Play hard for your teammates and your head coach, then.

 

[NDFAN2008]

As much as you wanna blame Ash Washington needs to be right there

 

[FOTY977]

Oh FFS, I have the same shirt as Ash on.

Burn it

 

[NumbersGuy0520]

Why do we have 3 almost halfway into the endzone on that TD run.

 

[IrishSpartan]

This is the most passive defense I have ever seen in my life. Zero creativity. Theres no energy bc they don’t have the chance to create any.

 

[UPMich_NDfan]

well we weren’t going to shut them
out we all knew that. just need the D to make some big plays a few times today

 

[KMac151993]

Bowen 5 yards deep at the 1 yard line...has 0 business seeing the field.

 

[thekid33]

Leave Ash in Arkansas. Al Washington can stay with him.

 

[RocketIsmail25]

That was an utterly pathetic defensive drive. Bullied all the way down the field

 

[phillyirish]

I dont think I can handle a season of this Charlie Weis ball. All offense and no defense.

 

[SoIll]

Al Washington and Ash both suck.

 

[IA4irish]

petrino has to think this defense is an absolute joke

 

[rtrn2glory]

This team is completely embarrassing to watch on defense

 

[IrishinSyria]

Got to admit I love a huge fullback TD

 

[MacIrish75]

For those of you that understand some of this shit from a defensive standpoint—how plausible is it that they’re being taught to STAY engaged in order to free up the linebackers to “make plays.” We used to coach our tackles, especially, to do this at times in a three-front defense.

 

[gregm83]

At least we made them do 17 plays. I believe that’s the plan when lbs first steps are always backwards.

 

[irishnd31]

This DL sucks

 

[dang227]

Irish defense is a defeated unit. They clearly don’t believe in what they are doing. Not energy, horrible technique, sloppy as fuck.

 

[FDNYIrish1]

This defense has too many good players to be this poor
