We can still be Top 5-7, but that's all I'd be willing to go until the CBs (or DL) show it on the field. Good chance our DL isn't going to be able to take a single game off this year, and will need to be absolute monsters consistently to help out the rookies. 

Thats just it.......they are all monsters.

High praise from Willie. I think #1 is a stretch with our unproven back end but our front 7 is unreal.

Not a stretch at all when you look at the absolute cheese d*ck slate of QBs on tap.

Is anyone else worried about our DE depth more than the CBs? With the zone scheme we play I think we can hide some of the deficiencies of our secondary considering we have Coleman coming back and all signs point to Boston being at least a sufficient starter at the other safety spot. With having 2 of the best coverage LBs in the league playing every down, I think we have enough talent to be alright ASSUMING we can get to the QB. Ealy definitely balled out during the Super Bowl but he has yet to prove it over the course of a season. And after Johnson and Ealy, we really don't have anyone that I would trust to come in and play full-time in the case of injuries.

    • fans view “box safety” with the same disdain they have when they hear “game manager” QB.   but there’s a reason most 1st round safeties are “box safeties”-it’s a much longer list of requisite skills to be a good box safety than it is to be a guy whose only real responsibility is to not get beat over the top. Fans crave the ed reed type and as someone who has never been able to enjoy this franchise having a guy like that, I get the enthusiasm-but I’m not really prepared to spend a first round pick on a free safety. If it happens it’ll be fun, it’ll address a need with a good player and that’s well and good. But those guys end up walking after their first contract because their pedigree usually outpaces what their teams feel like they’re adding to their overall win total.
    • Its criminal that the upcoming season is mainly in the tiny hands of BY.  I still member the time I did a full turn, if you member his first off-season from that Panthers all-time worst team....... Answering questions at his first presser, he goes along the lines " I didn't do nothing, no weight room or throwing" " I needed to get away". I was fully out with him, the guy didn't even try to improve his football mind, body, strength, in the biggest joke of panther football. I could not believe it, what a leader or dare say "point guard"(lols @ NBA point guards as a ref)
    • I view FS almost as the NT of the secondary. Oftentimes the true measure of his impact isn't necessarily in the plays that he makes but what he allows you to do with the rest of your defense to allow them to make plays. When you have that elite true sideline to sideline FS safety blanket over the top of the defense it allows you to be a lot more aggressive with everyone else. Where as when you have a Nick Scott as your last line of defense you gotta be mindful to not have to rely too heavily on that.
