    My only complaint with the defense (outside of the absentee pass rush cause recruiting) is the inability to adjust schemes when needed. The scheme works fantastically most of the game - special even. In the situations where you have to get an immediate stop you have to quit bending and sell out for a stop right now. This is in no way the players fault it's 100% on the defensive coaches for not adjusting.

    There's no reason why this scheme can't be kept in place but with the ability to adjust when you need to get the ball back with the game on the line. This needs to happen immediately.

    Cal defense got turnovers that won the game

    UW didn't

    And doesn't this year

    If the offense can't score more than 6 points blame it on the defense.

    As iDawg and is used to point out, losers always have one area that fails but think the other areas are good so if we get a new OC it will be fine. Then the defense sucks

    This is a 6-3 team that allowed Auburn to run it up their ass to win. Gave up the OT TD to Oregon and allowed 30 points to a team that has barely got a first down since

    They let Cal run all over the field playing keep away while the defense sat back and let them

    Turnovers lead to points like the winning team did. The losing team is talking about stats

    The entire team is fucked up including the defense
    Who?

    I feel like some members of this D are just going through the motions, thinking about what they are going to buy with that first NFL check

    And yet they gave up six points.

    The defense isn't as aggressive as I'd prefer either but they're still damn good.

    Defense isn't the issue.

    It's a good defense but nothing special    . Yeah they don't give up a lot of points but they also don't get off the field quickly to give the offense more opportunities. An god knows this offense needs as many opportunities as possible. Also my measure of an excellent defense is stepping up when the game matters. Couldn't get off the field at the end of the half against USC. Couldn't stop ASU with the game on the line at the end. Couldn't stop Cal to get the ball back. Bend and break reduces points against, what it doesn't do is optimize offensive opportunity.

    Race is spot on here

    The defense does a lot right ...

    But for as much as people shit on Browning for his issues (and fairly so), the defense has shit the bed in key spots more than many would care to admit

    Uh, quality teams have a connection on both sides of the ball. We have an offense that is weak and needs as many opportunities to score as the defense can give them. And you say the defensive scheme that we run works fantastically well yet is exactly the wrong scheme given the anemic offense. Our defense should be busting balls to get the ball back to the offense yet we are content to play rubberband and limit our already limited offense. Man I don't get your thinking at all on this one.

    The defense's job is to keep points off the bored.

    The offenses job is to score points.

    It's hard.
