Multiple scuffles.  Defense is getting frustrated.  This defense is a top 10 defense.  When our offense can move the ball against consistently against this defense...oh baby...

We aren't top 10 yet. Also, there's a vast difference in practice speed and aggression than game speed and aggression. If it were real, I suspect Darnold would've been broken in half at some point.

Not so sure about that top ten defense

Sounds like it as really good practice to day!

This is NOT a top 10 D. Our LBs suck and our only good corner is a rookie.

We’re on the way up though.

Scuffles don't honestly bother me that much, but Rhule is kind of a hardass.

And it is fair to point out that losing your cool in game situations can cost you. Remember that playoff game against San Francisco a few years back.

Projecting us as a top 10 defense in 2021 is a bit of a stretch. Still have some holes to fill next offseason to make that happen. And just general experience/game reps needed.

You may well be right on that.  My only worry is how many guys we have on the team who also fit that narrative. 

 

Yeah, it was scary the amount of guys that we accumulated with injury problems/history. I know that was discussed at length in here.

I mean look at the colts. Between them and the Cowboys.... I dont know who have been a more injured team of the last decade.

Jackson should be moved to free safety. He has a better chance for success there. I don’t know why it hasn’t been discussed by the coaches. 

Jackson is already very slight as a CB and isn't exactly a sure and willing tackler. Not sure that is what the doctor ordered at FS. 

DJack is fine at CB. He just needs to work on being more consistent. He's absolutely the best playmaker we have in the secondary. By a wide margin.

I know we aren’t. I didn’t draft Parsons. Parsons will be defensive rookie of the year by week five. 

you are referring the to the defensive end, right?

Yep. And we have had a couple of seasons in the past decade torpedoed by the injury bug, as well. I've never actually gone into a season being on pins and needles about injuries, but this is going to be the one. It's crazy the amount of injury prone guys we have in our two deep. 

We just gotta hope we can buck that trend for at least one season.

Rhule called them warrior caps and they it's  players choice to wear.  He said some leaders on the team chose to wear them, so others followed.

Don't Beat Ourselves?

Rhule confirmed, its Don't Beat Ourselves.  Says they got the idea  from Flores in Miami.
