Long season. Watch and see. Miami was trying to make Suh fit their D instead of letting Suh dictate the D. All that changed now.

The sad thing is -- you may actually believe this. For 19 million dollars -- you shouldn't have to custom fit a defense to ANY player. They should be productive, no matter what defense is being run. It is exactly why a DT isn't worth that type of money.

Miami is built to get after the QB. They aren't built to stop the run and they aren't one or two players from being a team built to stop the run. That is why I made the wager with you. Detroit was great last year, not solely because of Suh -- they were great because they had great DE's against the run. A great LB against the run and a very good safety against the run. It took Detroit almost 5 years to compile the players to be an elite rush defense.

Miami isn't going to fire a coach and turn into a great rush defense. I will say -- it is possible they get after the QB much more, though I think you will see teams do exactly what they did and still do against Detroit -- quick throws and nullify dealing with Miami's greatest strength.

But are you excited, damnit?

I am excited, but just like with the UM/MSU game next week, I'm cautiously excited. Levy is coming back from an injury, so i won't get too excited until I see if he is close to 100%.

In Mike's defense, his post was prior to the 2013 season. And prior to the 2013 season, Levy hadn't shown a whole lot.

And in my defense -- I posted on here already that I was eating crow in my comments regarding Levy and said I was wrong.

Though I still say -- Levy was nothing but an average to below average LB'er prior to 2013. Something clicked in 2013 and he went from middle of the road to a really good LB'er, to one of the best LB'ers in 2014.

I don't think he was injured personally.

But I'm cautiously excited too.

 

[TrustMeIamRight]

I don't think he was injured personally.

I wish they had to let you know what the injury was from or why he was missing time. I think he will help quite a bit if he is 100% in the passing game and limit many of the throws over the middle.

Unfortunately in this game -- Arizona likes to throw deep, so not sure how much Levy can help or hurt that from happening.

If he can move at 100%, our coverage will be light years better. Especially with TEs and prolly with Fitz too.

Wouldn't doubt to see Levy get him some today.

PS: I was just kidding man.

 

[RobBase]

Me too. Kinda.

 

[RobBase]

Sometimes my dreads make it hard to think.



Sup, dawg.

He just happens to be an acquaintance of mine. I'd still sit and drink root beer with him. He harmless I tell ya.

 

[RobBase]

I'm a loner. Most of the time I have to shoo people away who want to be friends with me.

Or maybe my dreads smell?

And I defended him in pass defense against you guys back then.
