Man I love it but we're two games in. Can we pump the brakes a little?

Nope.  We pumped breaks for about 8 weeks in 15.  Until this team loses they are the '72 Dolphins with an '85 Bears cape.

fug the world, we're awesome.

Dont like it?  Dont care.

That's fair when looking at the 2021 season thus far, but the article is very detailed and talks about our defense in 2020 as well.  

The underlying message here is more about how NFL defenses (like any facet of the game) need to evolve in order to counter what the other side of the ball is doing and how Snow seems to be ahead of the curve in that regard.

As long as offenses don't figure it out and we can keep them guessing

Here we are doing the exact same ordinary corner blitz 3 times in a row:


Our formations can be odd, but that's not the secret sauce.  Its the epic talent on the line and man coverage on the receivers taking away the quick throws.  They have to go to total pass pro, removing at least one (TE) or two (TE and RB) pass options and they can't double team on the line leaving 1-1 match ups.  With 1 on 1s,  Brown, Daquan, and Nixon  are eventually going to get thru.  

Really the only way out of this I can see is successfully running the ball.  Titans could be a problem for us, good thing they aren't on the schedule.  Fournette will need to have a good day when we play TB if they are going to beat us.

Why can't some of you people just chill and enjoy the beauty unfolding before our very eyes? We all get it, it is a long season and we know we won't dominate every team the way we dominated the Jets and the Saints. But is has been years since we have looked this way on defense and I for one an enjoying every minute. Some of you kill joys would find something to complain about if you won the powerball jackpot. What a miserable bunch of sad sacks.

      Outside of cerrato, I do like our draft overall. Hard to get can't miss draft picks when you pick late in the draft

      Not a Moore fan-but he had a few good games last year-but I want players that scare you--Renfrow's route running and intelligence, Legette's size, speed, and strength, AT's intelligence and route running, Coker's body control, strong hands, and abilty to win contested catches, and TMac's size, body control, and ability to find soft spots in zone coverages.  Horn gives them the ability to stretch the field and he plays special teams.   Moore has a nice smile and can dance.  He filled in well last season, but to get better as a team, you have to upgrade your players.  I think Moore is a bottom of the roster guy who got bumped when we drafted 2 WRs and signed a legit free agent.  Here is the thing--TMac makes us better because he is great against the zone--man?  Good luck with that.  AT's role can be reduced, and that is probably a good thing.  He can specialize in situational football. Coker?  Just getting started. XL?  Just getting started.  Drafting TMac was probably a bit of a wake up call, but XL will be better as the 2. Renfrow?  I see him splitting reps with AT--keeping both fresh and giving different looks. Horn?  Watch the safety cheat his side when he is in the game--I see a young Steve Smith type in him, but he has yet to play a game.  I hear that Morgan loves him.
