Gamble and Marshall better step up

Because without Pep we are going to have to blitz anytime we need pressure on the QB. I really wish we had a first rounder this year to throw at the Raiders for Asomugha because its going to take a corner of his caliber to lock down a defense and let the LBers blitz. I like Gamble and think he is a quality corner but having him and another lock down corner that people are scared of would let us unleash some pressure instead of relying on our front four like we inevitably do every single year...

you think Peppers wants to play for Oakland?

As was said earlier...Peppers ditched all allegiance to us by giving up his position and making it near impossible to get a fair trade. I know he has to sign a deal in order to make that trade but anything is possible.

I like Godfrey at FS. We've needed a speedy guy at that position for some time. It may take a learning curve for him to catch on, but am not mad at them pulling the trigger and putting him there. Talk was in college that he was good at freelancing on the field. We just have to get him on top of his game at that new position.

As for Marshall? He is one our best ST's players... Always in the mix. He had a lot of potential last year, but didn't pay much attention to him this year. If we let Lucas go, I think Marshall will be above average, but we'll have to wait and see...

i'd really like to see more pressing. i mean...they get five yards for contact. they shouldn't be playing 10 off.

It really depends on the down, distance, situation and the play called. No use in being up on the line when you're not quick enough to keep time with a receiver or you're in zone coverage.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
