We seem to be indecisive of which scheme we are running. I gave the benefit of doubt last year because they had so many missing pieces. But this year I expected it to go smoother than it has. Fundamentals and discipline are lacking. We can’t tackle.
I never let one game get to me but after many games that I have witnessed this year, we are definitely under achieving with the talent we have. When we traded Wilson we were definitely going into rebuild mode. Fools gold was we could be competitive while rebuilding. Mind you we did have had...
Before the season did anybody feel like we did not do enough improving the three big guys in the three four. I always felt we only acquired two of the three. We need to do this. Jones, Reeds play will drastically get better with a third strong player helping out. Even after the Williams trade...
Williams is the missing cog in the wheel for the scheme we run. We want to run predominantly nickel. We need more size and talent in the front three to do so. Williams will perfectly compliment Reed and Jones. He is exactly what we needed.
Acceptable loss???
Well the other teams players get paid too, the other team is trying their hardest too. The other team has good players too.
Someone had to lose.
This will be a tough game. We will look ugly at time, we will look good at times. Hopefully when it is over we will have made a couple more plays then they did
After last season, we all agreed we needed to get much better in the middle of the defensive line. Made some good moves adding Jones and Reed. And even though those moves worked out, I felt we needed more beef and had room for improvement. The team agreed. Do need to extend him
Purdy is struggling because there is finally enough film out on him for defenses to figure out his tendencies. What we need to watch on Purdy is how well he he adjusts to this.
Annoited one. I agree with you. I came out of the wood work just because I feel really positive about the teams direction. I have been feeling that way all year. I rarely post on message board because there is too much negative opinion, too much hate on certain players coaches. Go to...
Football is a team game not just about the QB. The better our defense is, the fewer points will be required by our offense. The better our defense is the shorter the field is for the offense. By improving the defense we have definitely have given Geno a better chance to succeed.
I do...
What excites me about this trade is not so much that we acquired Williams, it is Williams teamed up with Jones and Reed that excites me. He in my opinion he completes the DL in our 3/4 Defense. This is not about huge sack numbers from Williams, it is all about making it near impossible to run...
Sacks are just the icing on the cake. What you really want is a player that is consistently disruptive. A player who consistently collapses the pocket.
Scheme wise he really fits in. Our defense played the number two rushing attack yesterday. The Browns are a formidable opponent. Our defense was in the nickel defensive for well over 90% of the game. We used three safeties in base or run downs and three corners in passing downs. Yes we have...
