As opposed to last year, it seems as if our strength was mainly from Mitchell and our safeties, they were not necessarily better but seemed to stay in position and be aggressive on the run. After watching them tonight made me wonder about the strong safety position, though Decoud looks to atleast keep the play in front at free idk how I feel about Lester when it comes to pass Coverage. He seems to run himself out of his coverage leaving huge gaps down the seems or the sidelines. And apparently Harper isn't much better in pass coverage, this position just concerns me at the moment and I

Almost feel like that is the kink in our ds shiny

Armor. I feel so much better at the corner position after watching Cason and white get after it with nice intensity but how much worse

Off are we than last year because of that one weak link in our D?

Overall I still feel really

Good about the D jus wondering what you all are thinkin about the position....keep it slim on the

Gloom and doom tho this thread may not

Look like I'm an optimist when it comes this team!!!!

Go

Panthers!!!!!!

The Panthers were poor in pass coverage last year. We gave up lots of wide open completions last year too. But eventually our pass rush gets home and we get the turnover on an errant throw. If not the turnover we put them in 3 and long, give them the underneath and make the tackle. Mike Mitchell was not that great in coverage but he was good enough with our pass rush.

      BREAKING!!! Panthers signing Packers LT Rasheed Walker

      The OL has certainly been better than the trainwreck it was three or four years ago. As far as competitiveness let's apply some realism and clarity here. Quite a bit of the competitiveness in 2025 came from the defensive side of the ball which gave up the most points in league history the year before and was one of the bottom 5 units in terms of salary cap allocation for 2025 while the OL was top 3. We had the 26th passing offense last year. And if not for a herculean couple of games from Rico Dowdle we don't back our way into the division title or make the playoffs because we went 4-6 in our final ten games including being swept by the Saints who were starting a rookie 2nd round pick most of us mercilessly mocked when they selected him. In conclusion yes we've seen a difference. The question now is will the investment pay off the way we want. But the only way that happens is if we field a top 15 offense. If we can't even crack the top 20 then there need to be some very warm seats across the board. And I would hope just about anyone here should agree with that.

      These Spurs are lowkey loaded.  If healthy, they could win it all this year (#2 in the West right now). I still think we’ve gotta keep Kalk on Wemby; he’s not getting completely dominated like every other NBA center.

      Am I the only one who doesn't understand this fan bases infatuation with adding a high end TE? Especially when we have some bigger bodies in T-Mac and Coker who can slide into the slot at times and provide the big dependable target over the middle that most teams use their TE for. I mean, sure, it would be nice to have one of those elite TE's, but I feel like that's a position your better off going cheap with a committee who each bring something different to the table while spending our cap room on the more important positions. I like the potential we saw from Evans this year, Sanders could be a best if he can stay healthy, and Tremble has improved as well.  Just feels like spending high draft picks or cap space on other needs and more important positions is a better use of our resources than splashing on a TE in the draft or FA. Are those guys on the level of the Bowers or McBride's of the world?  Of course not, but we also are paying a fraction of the cost on our TE room than they are, and we're able to use that money for other needs.
