Mario and Pep

The entire dline was magnificent, especially in the second half.  Love, Short, Star, etc.... Lots of pressure on Keenum, and they did a better job in the second half of stopping him from burning us on scrambles.

 

It didn't seem like it at the time, but the defensive play after Cam's int when we held them to a fg might have been the key point in the game.

These guys are complete monsters. Addison most underrated DE in the game by far and Pep somehow still has some pep in his step. Imagine if we had Pep in his prime or if CJ was in his pre-2014 form..

They are a better, more consistent duo than Hardy and Johnson in 2013. Maybe the best SE duo on the team since... Pep and Rucker.

Boy Pep is old. How is he even possible?

Hated they robbed Pep of that second sack, but ended the drive anyway so no biggie. Peppers shoulda had two on the day though. 

There was also a should’ve been sack he had earlier in the year when the tool QB grounded.

I was thinking though...  can't they go back and credit hiim with it after the fact?  Think i've seen it done before.  That was clearly a sack by Pep.

    • I do think the rating is fair given how this unit hasn’t proven it with production. I understand you have to rank off production, not potential. However, our unit is also in a position to make this rating look foolish a year from now. We have 4 guys in the WR/TE room who all could legitimately take the next step this year, and catapult our rank. A guy under a lot of people’s radar after we took Tet, Jalen Coker. Mark my words, he will become the star of this room, and be the heir to Thielen.
    • Exactly. You’d think 2-7 wins a year (in a 17 game season no less) since 2017 is going to keep us bottom tier. Every year we say the same poo like we haven’t been a bad team the past 7 years. Until we prove we aren’t a bottom dweller, that’s where we’ll stay ranked. God forbid we have OL injuries like 2016.
    • What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.
