The biggest surprise is that there ar steams worse than us

I literally read that as there are steams.  

Reminds me of the SNL Celebrity Jeopardy skit.  Where there was a category that's called let it snow, and the guy that played Sean Connery read it as Le tits now!  HAHAHA.

So I take from this is that if we had at least a pass rush, we'd have a winning record...

Or a secondary since that is the biggest difference from last year to this year. Every other positional group is mostly the same.

Again, we're a defense that focuses on our front seven, not on our secondary. We got spoiled with Norman. We've always had a patchwork secondary (White, Dockery, Mikel, Florence, Mitchell, Thomas, Cason, Lester, Moore, etc).

Bradberry is our franchise DB, but he's a rookie. Our pass rush has to step up in the meantime.

Dude this league is trending towards passing game espeically with all the twinners coming up on the defensive side. DG is behind the curve. Broncos won the SB when they got a top notch secondary.

Surprise, pass defense is the one area that is lacking.

So when they tripple team our DTs  and send maybe 3 guys to cach and still convert with extra guys on coverage shows  that you can't throw just anybody behind a front 7. DG needs to realize where the league is trending.

Bradberry doesn't get injured, we're likely in the 15-20 range.

A DL that could rush the passer minus Bradberry, still likely in the 15-20 range.

Bradberry plus a DL that could rush the passer, we're likely in the 10-15 range.

    • Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
