We Have A Solid D In Place

[beastson]

Our defenders believed into what was taught and its showing a lot lately, especially the pass defense

Check the last Favre pick. Pep got pressure. Everybody from linebackers and slot corners covered the inside. Our out corners forced and let the receivers go to the outside instead of inside and Favre thought he had man open, Safety held their positions and the Hitman got the pick. Did what they was supposed to do, not too much, and ended the game

either Charles Johnson or Brown should start over Brayton, he's just average and that may be generous.

[beastson]

Yea Johnson has lobbyist on here(I'm one of them)... been injured, but hopefully he will start next year

Man the biggest offseason is coming pretty soon

[Saint J]

if i'd have to guess at least one DE won't be there in 2010 whether that's peppers, brayton, or johnson.

brayton isn't an elite DE but he is a lot better than people give him credit for.

i have no problem with him being the starter. doesn't really matter, though. there's a lot of rotating going on so everyone gets to see the field quite a bit. if brayton see more action it's because he can move inside to DT if needed.

[Saint J]

i don't think he is horrible but he isn't any better than johnson or brown who both have potential which he doesn't.

[Kakarot]

this D has gotten better each week, and it's a joy watching them.

i believe the D is going to be downright nasty next year if meeks is still here.

and i agree, charles johnson should be starting over brayton but i'd still like to see brayton on the team next year.

[DudeNamedJeremy]

agreed. i take back everything i've said about meeks in the preseason

[Brandon]

I was a hardcore defender of Meeks in the preseason, and now that the defensive scheme has finally worked itself out I think the results speak for themselves. I can't wait to see our defense next year with TD and our defensive line healthy.

[Saint J]

carolina's top priority besides a QB and WRs should be a real force at DT, you have some nice role players at DT but no one who demands a double team on every down not just obvious run downs. tampa could have suh, atlanta has babineaux, and the saints have ellis. carolina needs to find a DT like one of the above.

[Brooklyn Bully]

We need to shore up the Run D, but if we lose Pep but can bring in a solid DE, I think we'll be looking pretty good next year.
