Our defense is going to flip in the ratings this year. You can here the excitement in the voice of every defensive player. They all truly believe we're going to be dominant on defense. We won't get there without Snow leading the way. 

I think about  how much we got wrong last year.  Many felt the D was going to suck (no Keuchly, Bradberry) and the O was going to be ok.  We brought in Okung, Teddy was an upgrade over Allen and co, we had CMC and DJ was going to ball.

In the end, the defense, overall held its own, peaking late in the season to a shut out Matt Stafford.  CMC, who never gets hurt... gets hurt for most of the season.  Newcomer Robbie Anderson lights things up early, while Okung only plays 7 games.  

Right now we are pretty confident in our D and we're worried about the Oline.  I just wonder what we have wrong this time.

I think Snow was the biggest unknown to most of us when Rhule brought him in. First time I listen to an interview with him, I was excited about how good of a coach he is. I still new last year was going to be a struggle.

Half this board turned Snow into a meme of incompetence last year for some unknown reason. They found a pic of him in a crooked hat with a goofy looking face and threw it around everywhere confidently insisting he was a college coach not fit for the NFL.

He shut them up in a hurry. I mean, our defense definitely had growing pains, but he did damn good with what he had. Numerous rookies starting, barely any experience in the secondary at all, backup caliber LBers. They just kept getting better.

Ive been a believer in Rhule and Snow from the start. But even if they don’t pan out here (which I personally feel VERY confident that they will) there is no denying they know football. Rivera was a great defensive coach and yet when you listen to Snow talk about the game you still just get the impression that Snow could out scheme him. And his defense performed better last year than Ron’s final season with us with far less talent.

Seriously dude fugg off already. I get your deal is to troll for attention but its seriously annoying.

I get your jealous of Mr Scott and his '+ count'. But he provides a significant amount of content and discussion to this board and has been doing so for a very long time. 

You seem to only be on here, not to contribute but to attract attention. Grow up. Do that and people here will actually like you. 

Oh there is more than him.......we have been overrun by trolls recently.

Not to mention that the defense in the 2nd half of the Green Bay game. Our defense gave the eventual MVP fits.  If I remember correctly we had 5 consecutive 3 and outs against Rodgers. Probably our best half of defensive football all season.

So aside from having people like me in reality  like the real world we live in, you’re telling me to try having people behind a keyboard like me on an Internet forum board? Never fuggin mind. If that’s the life you choose to live.x 

You seem to get your jollies by trolling people.. I would rather not be a dick online and actually try to have a football conversation. If you wanna troll, go back to Twitter.

Lol no it isn't. 

You might need to watch some football games and do some reading if you actually think this. Start with names like Steve Atwater, Brian Dawkins, Sean Taylor if you aren't sure what the position includes.

I remember when I didn't understand football. It was a fun time. Also you just listed guys that played back in 2000. You know things have changed a little there scooter... We don't need two in the box safeties anymore and teams actually attack the CB more now than they did years ago. FS has become your deep guy or a guy who picks up the extra Receiver. You really need to learn modern football there guy.

    • If we don't go OT, we will regret it.  What bothers me?  Are we going to get a starting-caliber OT at 19?  I think the draft is solid at OT, and the more I read up and watch video, the more I watch Lomu, the more I want him.   I see Freeling as a RT who needs some work in run blocking (since we need to run first, maybe not a good fit) and I see Proctor ending up as a Guard.  After Lomu (assuming Mouigia and fanu are gone), I think we wait until round 2.  In round 2, there are about 3-4 I like (Zuhn--good pass blocker and VERY underrated right now; Tiernan is a very good pass blocker as is Miller from Clemson, but both are not good in the run game.  Max Ixxxxx from Ariz St is impressive too---technically, there is not a of difference in these second tier guys--good in pass pro, need work in the run game.   If we wait until round 2 for an OT, we probably need to sign Nijman and start him early.   I almost think this is what we should do if Lomu is gone.  There is a big dropoff after him, imo, and I think we'd get better value if a stud ILB or edge is there.  Someone like TJ Parker Clemson makes sense. If Lomu is gone, trading back might be the play.  
    • And what is x gunna help with except show him what not to do. Plus for the first year and a half he was just an obstacle 
    • I understand that some people want WR. I am solidly against using yet another high pick there. Coker is pretty good and we used No picks on him.  What I think we really need at WR is a little bit of a Smitty lite. It is ridiculous to say let’s get a Smitty because you just can’t do that, but someone not tall and long striding but more in his mold. I think we’d have a pretty well rounded group.    Looking at tackle, with replacing Moton looming, it just seems like the no brainer.  You fill in Icky short term. Depending on how he recovers, and how the new guy plays, you go from there. A tackle at 19 is most likely either a LOT, a ROT, or a big talented guard, at worst. We will need all three in the next couple of years.  I would love to have a stud ILB be there at 19 but the OL is the responsible thing to do I believe.
