Film Room: Poe & Miller

Will have several of these throughout the day. If you’re interested. Thoroughly impressed with both 95 and 50 on tape.

I am excited to see Poe playing well. we really need him to play well for this defense to work. 

[ellis]

He had some pretty good pressure stats coming into that game. He’s looked much more active in 2019. It’s exciting. That’s a very overlooked piece of all this. But if he plays at a higher level than last year, look out.

I am liking out front 7 more and more. Actually the only unit on D that could use a serious upgrade is our Safeties. Damn they are bad but that is just how we roll. 

It's great to see Poe playing well. I absolutely wrote him off after last years performance. I couldn't be happier that he is producing now.

No surprise a new defense with new parts might take some time to tell.

Things are looking up. Hopefully no more chucklheads repeating.."Hows that 3-4...derp"

The 3-4 thing was always a bit overstated.

  It’s the same 4-2-5 we have played for years for most of the game. What was new? 

[ellis]

They played nickel almost all day v AZ. No dime. AZ showed more 11 personnel than they had show in weeks prior. Hence the lack of dime. Even vs. 10 personnel, CAR essentially used Shaq as a NB.

Focusing in on the first three plays the game: I realize they fumbled later on the drive, but it was an impressive start and gave KA and the OL confidence they could drive the field w/ balanced attack.

Great mix of personnel.

They are, but we are paying too much for bad---I realize that Boston was a bit of a deal, but still more expensive than a rookie.  Reid wants to be more activist than S--his heart is not in it, based on his body language.  When you hurt your team by taking cheap shots or throw wicked elbows to bring down RBs, you are probably not going to be in the lineup long.

Wait until KK comes back.

Yes. Could be huge.

I can't say on Reid yet but they are just not very good/effective overall. Boston is better than what we had but that is a very low bar. It really could be worse but it should be better than this. It's still early but that is coming to a close in the next 3 weeks. At that point, things firm up one way or the other. As for the money, that is more an offseason thing. If there was a way to dump bad money for better money while increasing the quality of player I would be completely behind that, but that is fantasy at this point as far as I know. I don't think we have better options on the team or market so it's time to be thankful for what we have because Jones could be back there and he makes Boston look good, which is an achievement in of itself.

If Eric will not start wrapping up for tackles, Gaulden should take his place. 

Is Gaulden finally healed from his injury?
