Yes....but our run defense is going to be horrid as well...our LB could be worst in the league

I believe it will be a complete team effort on how bad our defense will be.  We will have some bright spots but our CB's will get killed by the top rated QB's.  Against the lower rank teams we might hold our own and even have bright spots that will raise hopes, but we will make mistakes that will cost us games.

They will be better than last year. Yall just like to parrot yourselves in every post you make.

The only difference is the age factor and dollar they make.  Young players make mistakes and I am sorry I just don't have a level of confidence that Shaq will be the leader that Luke was.  We will see what happens but I don't worry about the offense.  Can the defense keep us in games is my questionable concern.

We were middle of the pack or better in virtually every passing defense category last year. I honestly don't see this secondary doing better than that, especially since we lost by far our best DB from last season.

To be fair I think a strong argument can be made that a lot of teams don't throw the ball a ton when it's easy to hand off to your rb for 8 yards a pop.  Being awful against the run tends to make your secondary look better on paper than perhaps it really is.

We were above middle of the pack in average net yards per attempt. We were among the league leaders in INTs. 

The run D was absolutely abysmal, but for the most part the secondary wasn't.

We were tied for 20th in the league in terms of pass attempts against us. I was honestly surprised we weren't a lot lower considering you could just line up and run it down our throats at will... and mike and sam for that matter

In what way could they possibly be better? Even tho we sucked last year- we have 0 talent in the secondary and lost luke and our LB corps is awful. DL is wash at best...we lost proven guys like Addison, McCoy, Poe.

If we go into the season with this secondary in our division, teams are going to be putting up video game scores on us. Which is okay by me to be honest. I was never under the delusion that we have anything other than draft position to play for this season.

Man, I really wish the NFL would adopt promotion/relegation tiered league format so that all the fans who want to "play for draft position" can just watch the team get demoted. Here's your reward for sucking. ;)

    • generally speaking, going by the original NFL international marketing rights announcement... we would expect to host a Germany home game once every four years.  Doesn't mean we would play internationally only then, just the guarantee home game situation things might have changed since then, if they figure out how to play at more stadiums during a season to expand the number of "home" teams available
    • Munich won't happen. It's a Lions home game in Munich, but we play the Lions at home at BOA Most likely to happen would be Madrid vs the Falcons (although KC has been pushing hard for this one). From a schedule perspective, it would be interesting to have an early November Madrid game (then the bye week), then close out the season at BOA for the 2nd game vs the falcons.  In other words, put the two division games in the 2nd half of the season Paris vs the Saints has long been rumored to be the Browns (but... never say never) We wouldn't play Munich, Melbourne, Mexico City, London, or Rio based on who those announced home teams happen to be  
    • Moton's knees were an issue before last season. He will be 32 before the season starts and gets 14.2M in '26 and 21.5M for '27 (not guaranteed). LT Icky and Rasheed Walker are signed through '26 and Freeling through '30 (option); LG Lewis signed through '28, C Fortner through '26 and Hecht through '29; RG Hunt through '28, RG Moton through '27.  They did a good job shoring up that oline.  We can have a starting oline of: LT Freeiling, LG Lewis, C Hecht, RG Hunt, and RT Moton pretty much locked up through the '27 season (will just take a Moton option to do). That's good because we need to be ready to pull the trigger with next year's QB class.
