What happened to the blitzing that was working at the end of the 1st half? Seriously, did we do much more of that or was it not getting home or what? I know the throwback screen to the TE was a brilliant call, but was it in response to blitzing and did it scare us off from doing it anymore?
Defense has been terrible all year. Personally I think the only one that has done anything worth a damn is Orgeron. He took a small extremely thin defensive line and didn't fall off too much from a year ago. Corey Raymond has sucked this year, the defensive backs have more talent than most D-1 schools and they got burned for big plays and coverage busts all year. Peveto obviously spent all his time on linebackers and forgot to coach special teams. There are at least 8 guys on D that will be in the NFL one day and they always looked ill prepared, not fundamentally sound, out of place, and by the 4 quarter because of lack of depth, they were roached. Kevin Steele was a bad hire, and if Les goes, he can take Steele with him, and Corey Raymond for all I care. I think it's time to destroy the Lego house and start over.

the two worst seasons under Les Miles have been when his defense wasn't there to save his ineptitude putting together an offense (2008, 2015) it's also the two years that we have questioned heavily whether we should make a change at head coach
