Zero pass rush from the DE position. Double teaming Short leaves Star one on one to get the QB. Thats been the pressure so far. These rookie corners will get toasted without a pass rush, wait until they play a top QB. What is the answer....is there an answer two games in?

Our defense isn't like last year. DE needs to be addressed, but we're a lot better off than a lot of NFL teams out there. I think we'll be fine for the most part. Won't be surprised to see a DG trade coming up soon.

 

I feel the Huddle is overreacting too much over these games. First few games last year were close games, this time we're getting that 30+ points bracket much sooner.

Jared Allen played most of his career in a 4-3, and was playing on an 0-3 team with a big salary that had thrown in the towel,. Try and find a team/player that will be willing to do the same for an active sacks leader and you'll wind up with **** in hand.

Release the Kraken or get used to the same.  Pure and simple.

Dude we should have raped these guys... Anyway we need pass rush help asap

 

Giving them the ball on the 1 and patty-caking that TE down the field for 2 easy TDs makes it seem closer than it was, and that's even with the slow start. Not saying pass rush can't be improved, because it can, but after a slow start the team performed well.

      So is Legette getting traded?

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
