Death by a thousand cuts..DE position on the ropes

Hamstring problems can be an injury that lingers all season and Johnson has a problem. Don't be suprised if this drags on all season long. Alexander goes down and is done. Don't know what to expect out of Ealy this year ( one step foward and three steps back it seems). Addison is situational and just not stout enough to be a starter.  Horton should be a back up at best. The only player that is big and bad enough to command an offense to take notice of is K.K. With the QB's coming up very soon, no pass rush equals shredded defense. What can and will they do if Johnson is out. Designed blitzes can only do so much and a skilled QB will kill those more times then not. Opinions please on what the next move is to fill this void.

I thought Ealy was garbage today and I'm sure his PFF grade will show it again. He didn't even try on that last Saints TD. 

Our d-line is in big trouble, IMO. Even though we won and are 3-0 im not drinking the "oh we won so stfu and enjoy the win and don't be negative" coolaid. We'll probably be fine next week against the Bucs, but that Packers game will be brutal.

      Boy the flyers look good early. Lots of bad plays and slow start by our team. Hope that changes before the score changes.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes into account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as another treading water year (at QB). I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room. Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. That’s how I look at it.
