Yes it has occurred to me. And if the injuries do linger or occur on defense during the season then the season is over. We simply have to stay healthy on D with our offensive troubles. If we see the defense we saw the first 3/4 of the season last year we might win 4-6 games. If we see the defense over the last 1/4 we might make the playoffs. I'm not naive enough to think we are going to generate a pass rush versus a first team line with our 2's and 3's.

It wasn't as if the dline was lighting it up last year. Changes in the D we saw last year were on the back end. Call is coach speak but Rivera during his press conference said that the starters should have been able to generate more pressure and injuries were no excuse.

Let us see how they play vs NE. We might have to blitz some to affect the QBs this season.

I agree with you there. The secondary was much improved. I'm so surprised they haven't tried a Coleman Boston combo yet. Harper should only be a situational player. There's no reason we shouldn't be blitzing a linebacker when all 3 are capable in coverage. The problem is when our linebackers are blitzing they couldn't make it more freaking obvious. I would like to see some more creativity on both sides of the ball.

We also haven't had our 1st string defense for either of the preseason games.  Missing 3 of our 4 DL, can't be overstated how big of an impact that will have when they come back.

I agree. You take 3 starters off the D line of any team and there will be a dropoff in performance, QB pressure, stops on third down, etc. I don't think we can truly assess the team until regular season. Preseason is for individual assessments.

      His play style isn’t what’s needed and he’s slow to get off the time. Watching some of these all 22 clips and there’s once again a massive lack of speed on the field. 3rd year in a row I’ve said from day 1 Bryce needs route runners. He’s had one pure route runner and he turned Thielen into a 1000 yard receiver. At age 35. The Panthers drafted Young to be a “point guard” and proceeded to give him the exact opposite of what he’s needed. It would sure be nice to have a deep threat as well. Something Bryce had at Bama

      I'm the same and I just gave up on it years ago.  I expect the new sale to make it a worse fall into making bigger revenue streams and that's not going to be offline franchise.

      Renfrow for being a role player has been 100% fine.  Heck he should have at least 4 TDs.  Bryce Young just can’t throw the ball.  When he does look Renfrows way and he is open it’s almost always just a bad throw.  Renfrow also has been out there setting great picks like the big play to TMac, getting Bryce Young horrible turnovers wiped on away from the play routes etc.  You could literally already make a highlight real of bad throws to him by Bryce and none of that is pimping Renfrow.   It just highlights Bryce fails at basics over and over every week without fail
