Is this a reflection of the problems on defense or a contributor to them?

 

    I would love to know how many hurries he has. Because to my eye he is getting close, just can't get home. Hellz, this is true for most of the Dline. Close, but no cigar type of year so far. Teams really are trying to negate our rush with those shorter routes. 

 

    So it is more of how teams are playing us, than how we are executing.

Anyone that didn’t know that defensive end was going to be a MAJOR issue on this football team is a total nincompoop.

 

    It's cool you want to dismiss that teams are dinking us to death, just to keep your tired rhetoric alive? That fact does hurt your argument.

 

    At the beginning of the year, most folks thought our Dline was going to be pretty good. KK, and Poe wreaking havoc up the middle. Allowing Pep, Addy, Horton, and maybe one of the kids to get after the QB. On paper, that looked like a solid group.

 

    Evidently the opposition felt the same way. Because every team we have played, well, except Dallas that is, has dinked, and dunked us to death. The very best way to counter a good pass rush? Quick passes. 

 

    I mean, we get it. You love you some Kraken. And it's fine if you want to fight that battle until the very end. I mean, if it weren't' so sad, it wouldn't be so funny. But you have to see the irony in calling others nincompoops?

Peps conditioning is just getting into early season form. He had his first real injury in his whole career and it looks like the surgery went well.

Still among the best in the league. He's playing the run very well, getting pressures and a very Pep like sack, ff the other day.

Dude is the best we've got and is aging like fine wine.

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By frankw · Posted

      Oh please with the wallowing in victimhood I'm going to take my ball and go home routine. You were just in here referring to people as super weird haters because they don't completely agree with your borderline delusional spin on what Bryce Young is and isn't as a fourth year starter. We can hope by some miracle that Bryce Young will actually be able to lead a formidable passing offense this season without being irrational homers and pretending verfiable data and what we have seen with our own two eyes doesn't tell us exactly what he has been to this point which is someone who moves the ball at a historically low rate.

      Vrabel and Russini? Athletic investigating.

      I am curious who's behind all of this though. A video and photos from years ago surfacing? Someone has a vendetta and is driving this PR campaign. I'm loving it, but I'd also like to know who said mystery figure is.

      I say positive things about Bryce when he earns them. Which he has a handful of times. It is all here and on the record but your lobby won’t focus on that or the flat out truth inside of our critical comments.  It is a constant thing with him and his backers - one or two good things and people are trying to extrapolate that to proof we should commit to him, while ignoring or making excuses for the larger portion of his track record.  When he is able to consistently turn in franchise QB extension worthy outings the tone of the posts will reflect that.  I have already said that if he would play like he did in the WC as often as we need him to, I would be okay with keeping him.  See you don’t want to talk about that though because it shows actual fair minded evaluation not stanning.
