Through 3 games Jeremy Chinn looks like he could be a star.

Through three games, I'd say our defense is still trying to find an identity, very inconsistent. There have been some bright spots here and there and one of them is Jeremy Chinn... This kid is all over the field getting in on plays. The one play today where he recognized the screen, came in and made the play shows his football IQ. I think Chinn has the potential to be big time play maker on defense.

it was looking like we were going to have to retool the entire defensive backfield next year at one point, so it's a pleasant surprise to find we may have a solid player there.

FS will always be shaky as long as tre boston is playing but throw a good starter or two at CB and suddenly that unit is looking real nice.

Boston was really solid today. Hopefully he can keep it up, we’ll need him to on this contract Hurney gave him....

also get some actual linebackers on this team and chinn won't have to flex into the middle of the field and expose the defense to burress or whoever the fug they're sticking back there 

Luke would fit in really well with this group, it’s a bummer he hung up the cleats but I respect the decision, especially with the concussions. But yeah either way we need to replace Whitehead ASAP. Shaq is fine for now but overpaid and should be upgraded eventually if we can.

I'm not gonna give up on Shaq yet. He doesn't cost us games though his coverage can absolutely be better. At times he flashes and he tackling has improved year after year. At worst hes a solid, average starting LB.

That said we absolutely need to improve our LB core. Chinn is a great building block. Brown looked great today. Spider Burns makes me erect. DJax flashed today and Pride had very solid man coverage on Keenan Allen. Lot to like today with this defense.

shaq is overpaid but untradable. replace MLB and OLB if we're sticking with a 4-3 and that defense is instantly legit, especially if we're adding a piece or two in the secondary.

he can be suspect in coverage at times but he's a playmaker and always around the ball. he's absolutely an asset to the team

      Someone needs to make a gif of the 1 time we blitzed him and he looked like he was on skates as he just went right by Kyler... After watching that, I understand why we don't blitz...

      Hunt and Corbett to IR

      The oline wasn't that bad the final drive (except Zavala on 2 plays). Bryce has terrible pocket presence and just steps/scrambles into the pass rush far too many times. And Zavala's bad blocking wouldn't have even been a problem on the 2 plays if Bryce checked it down to Chuba. It's so weird that Bryce didn't try to check it down at all the last drive when that was pretty much all he did the previous 3 touchdown drives...

      I think just about every team would be in the same predicament if they lost 2 starting offensive linemen. It's even worse for us because our QB is so bad he can't compensate for a beat up oline. That being said, I think our depth at oline is solid. I don't think there is much a drop off from Corbett to Mays (if any) and BC has good position versatility and is IMO solid at each oline position (that I have seen him play). Zavala I thought played well last year and hopefully he was just bad yesterday because he had to come in mid-game. But yeah, none of those backups are close to the quality of Hunt
