CSN Baltimore: Defense fed up with soft image

We're fed up with their soft performances!

This is why I think this will be one of those weeks where everyone expects Foster to go off and break the single game record, but when it comes to Sunday we find a way to hold him under 100 yards.

As unfortunate as the injuries to Ray and Lardarius are, maybe it's what was needed for the coaching staff to wake up and change some schemes.

A lot of it is just tackling better.

Eh, some of it is. I don't claim to be any sort of defensive expert, but guys just are not winning their matchups up front. I think that leads to the missed tackles as it has created more open space to run.

CSN Baltimore: Obsession with big hits leads to bad tackling

Most of it is poor tackling right now. They have been going after big hits and not wrapping up. Look at the tape. You can see on many occasions they have the hole stuffed and have him in the backfield for a negative run, I am talking runningbacks, and they simply miss the tackle by just sticking an arm out there. Plain and simple, it starts with tackling. If they wrap up Foster, they will stop him. they can't allow Houston to set up the run, that will doom them. Maybe I am grasping at straws, but I feel like they will do so Sunday. They have no choice.
