Defense is just flat out terrible right now. There no excuses this game.

DL gets no pressure ever. Linebackers suck now (I understand what they meant by Schmidt = MVP) and there are some serious issues at safety.

Why is Redfield not starting?!

I retract my statement about the defense regressing.

I amend it to: the entire TEAM is regressing.

Holy shit this is like watching two tortoises have sex. I can't decide if its more disgusting than slow or vice versa.

Every aspect of the defense is terrible right now. Mental miscues. Slow. DBs constantly getting beat by mediocre players. Linebackers god awful. DL gets no push or pressure ever.

It's pathetic.

He has just not shown the ability to adjust. Sometimes you have to do something different (not press man) if you don't have the bodies to do it. He has to adjust to his personnel.

Lax. I didn't read all your posts in here last week but weren't you saying the defense isn't that bad. I could be wrong.

Actually, to me it's kind of a holistic problem. D comes up big and the O turns right around and lays an egg. O is on fire D can't get a stop. This group just isn't playing like a team across the board at this point.

Yeah, this is the first game IMO where they've been downright awful with no mitigating circumstances.

Northwestern is an inept team. And they ran normal, legitimate offense all day long to the tune of 500+ yards.

He's in year one and has literally no depth to work with. There are bigger problems with this team.

Giving up this many yards and points to Northwestern is inexcusable, though. (EDIT) What am I saying? We looked like a Rich Rod Michigan defense out there today.

I don't care if he's working with blind high school girls who have a limp, tonight was unacceptable. 40 points to Northwestern.

...which could have been 600 yards and 50 points if they didn't have numerous drops on wide open plays, including touchdowns.

I was looking forward to some passion on sidelines, getting in guys faces when messing up. Its not happening and I haz a sad, the D doesn't have a nasty to get guys fired up so it has to be him. I can only assume beet faces still talked about moment, is holding back ND coaches from getting after it. That's unfortunate

@timomalleyND: #NotreDame's foes have scored a combined 211 points over the last 5 games - the most points against ND over a 5-game span in program history

This is unheard of levels of badness on the defense. Looks like BVG cannot adjust his scheme to his personnel.

I don't recall a team having that many turnovers in a 5 game stretch either.
