We all know the offense is terrible.
This defense is not much better. Yes, they have injuries but so does the offense. I know the MLB spot is down to the bottom of the barrel but we haven't seen a turnover by this defense in about a month. All 3 of our losses, 0 turnovers. You can't expect the offense to play perfect and not turn it over every game. At some point the defense needs to make plays too. They've had Alex Smith pick them apart, Gibson was out for Redskins and Mckissic killed them. Allen is good so it wasn't surprising to see him throw all over them. Tonight, Finley made big plays against them and they ran for 152 when they knew they were going to run.
Never thought I'd say it but Bud getting injured really hurt this defense. They should not get a pass though.. they need to make plays to get short fields for a struggling offense.
