Brady Christensen didn't trip himself.

Erving stepped on his left foot making Brady fall backwards. It looked like he tripped on his own feet initially. 

Nice photo.  I am relieved.  Although I look at this photo, and I see some positives and negatives.

Cam's form is good.  Christensen's feet are too close together--maybe because 320 lbs was on one them.  Miller needs better arm extension and more knee bend and less waist bend.  Paradis looks good--he gets in trouble when they bull rush him and he is in good shape vs. the bull rush.

It looks like he was hesitating a little bit and was slow getting to wherever he should have been, and that's when Erving got manhandled right over top of him. He'll get it figured out once the game starts to slow down. He's definitely got the physical tools. 

Yeah, it's like young guys in college getting their first reps. You generally need somewhere between 100-200 live snaps before a linemen really starts having things slow down for them.

When they had Brady at Lt and brown at LG in the preseason they looked real solid pancaking guys 

They are. As long as the are up against equal talent they can and will hold their own. The level of competition has gone up a notch though since those preseason games.

    • Tanking in the NFL isn’t really a thing and anybody wanting to bring the rigged lottery to the NFL has an ulterior motive.
    • I understand where you're coming from, but we need another safety IMHO. Other positions, especially on defense, dont have ideal depth, but to me at least S is the one position we can't stand pat at even when thinking about the future
    • 100%. Nick Scott was awful last year. Like, even for a franchise that hasn't historically invested in that position, it stood out for how awful it was. If he sees meaningful snaps at S again we're cooked.  Maybe he has value for ST, but I certainly hope we can upgrade. Jordan Fuller, who was by all accounts an Evero guy, was almost as bad. Xavier Woods was bad, but not complete garbage. Still did not want him back. Those 3 guys seriously may have been the worst S group in the NFL. And they all were brought in, especially Fuller, as good fits for this system. Everyone knocks the defensive line, and they deserve a lot of blame, too, but so, so many times our safeties inability to tackle let 4-5 yard runs turn into 10+. And it happened over and over and over again if you watch the film. Honestly, Demani Richardson was the only S by the end of the year I remember making positive plays. I have no issue with Richardson being in the mix and/or competing to be a starter, but we still need another S desperately IMHO who has actually played meaningful snaps in the NFL. The only caveat/excuse for our secondary was the fact our pass rush was nonexistent for large stretches last year. Maybe that helps with coverage, but I dont see how that makes any of these guys better at tackling.  I know it somewhat feels like piling on at this point, but I feel 100% confident in saying this was the worst tackling team in franchise history. The 70ish yard pass play we gave up to Jamarr Chase where he ran through and past everyone in the secondary has to be up there in terms of most embarrassing plays I've ever seen. I can't imagine how embarrassed Kuechly must have been watching from the booth... I think bringing back Evero was a mistake, but for a team that has had nothing but change over the past 5 years, I'm willing to see this through. I definitely think we added significantly to the floor of this defense with the additions we made. I dont think Evero has any further excuses if he cant field a unit that can at least somewhat hold their own. Fixing the safety play is going to be a big part of that.
