Caption this Byron Bell

So what is the big deal.  There are very few guys who don't get beat sometime during  a game including Gross.  You can watch film and see guys missing something all the time.  Considering it was Pittsburgh who blitzed on many plays including that one he held him own most of the time.  I wonder if fans on the Pittsburgh message board are all over their line after they gave up 6 or 7 sacks last night

After looking at it more, Amini has his guy blocked and has him going to the outside, then Bell gets in the way which gives Amini's guy a way around Bell. So really Bell fuged up 2 blocks in 1 play.

It wasn't Bells fault anymore than Amini.  The point of stunting one guy to the inside and the inside man outside is to cause just what happened.  If they had been playing together Bell would have slid off his man and taken Amini's and vice versa.  But they really haven't played that much together in the preseason given Bell is playing a new position and Amini missed most of last year.  They will look at film and discuss what to do the next time.  That is the point of preseason.

    • Evero has his faults, but even in that loss, the team only gave up 20 points. Your post gets to the heart of the matter. We are not a talented team on defense at this time. Some of our younger guys may develop w/more playing time, but for now we have no impact players at LB or EDGE. We could really use a ball-hawking S on the back end as well. We have exactly two players that have to be accounted for on every play, D. Brown, and J.Horn. Mike Jackson has been solid. The other starters would probably be backups on most the upper echelon NFL teams. We really can't expect this team to a Top 10 defense with such a lack of talent. All things considered I've been somewhat impressed with how much better they have played this year.   https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-points-per-game   https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-average-team-passer-rating We are in the top 15 in terms of points allowed per game (22.6) and top 12 in defensive passer rating (88.9). And, we are doing this without a formidable PASS RUSH. Even our rushing defense has improved. We are #16 in rushing yards allowed per game (116) compared to 179 per game last season. https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-rushing-yards-per-game I wouldn't cry if Evero moved on after the season, but his defense isn't the biggest worry for our team.
    • The funny part is she looks older and not in a good way...
    • How about some line help, both sides, first. Trade XL before talking about a 1st round WR 3 years in a row. Or a TE or...drum roll...a QB to pair with a vet.  And if it's not a speedy route guy with hands then just hard pass.
