I don't normally make these threads, I actually loath them.

But, I just took a look at Defense rankings.

Houston Texans #1 in yards per game and #2 in points per game.

Huh? They were absolutely atrocious last season.

Hired Wade Phillips and moved to a 3-4.

If they can make this massive turn around in one season, why can't we?

We would have to dedicate our entire draft to defense to make the change, but I think its possible.

Again, I am sorry. I just can't help it when I saw the Texans.

Also, how much of this comes from the fact that the Titans are a top rushing team.

Wade knows how to call a 3-4, and I'm not sure McDermmot does. At least well enough to pull a Texans turn around. I'm fine with the 4-3 if we get some playmakers. We need to hit on every draft pick this year. Marty needs to lean on the talent evaluaters and avoid stupid ass trades. This is a HUGE draft for us.

Please do not use stats without context. They are meaningless. You need to take into consideration the efficiency of the offenses these defenses faced in order for those numbers to actually mean anything.(strength of schedule..not last year's but this year's as it unfolded)

They don't mean anything when you just state that. I'm working on trying to get a more accurate measurement on where our both offense and defense ranks. It will take some time.

That's why there is such a HUGE difference between last year and this year. Strength of schedule of offenses and their own offense's performance(yards per point when you put those two together).

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      By Basbear · Posted

      I swear Morgan didn't have 1st(#1 overall) or a 2nd rounder in this rebuild.......Then his first 2nd rounder that he gave up two 5ths for is now out for basically 2 years..... Football is not forgiving....

      Panthers start making cuts to roster

      This. They better not even think about bringing him back if they are short on TE's.

      Clowney released

      By Basbear · Posted

      MHS, You are missing Claudin Cherelus is a LB that's in the mix for the 4th spot. He's been here for 2 years and had a couple injuries. I mean he was a wavier claim and been here for evero system, just had bad luck when given a chance. Jon Rhat is the current leader mainly cause of he is the ST ace. But Id say, Cherelus has the same % to make the roster.  CB has the recent wavier claim of MJ Devonshire a 2024 7th rounder. He's got the good-great combine numbers but he's small size. Still he's in the mix for backup duties, in fact all the non-UDFA are wavier claims.  ______________________________________________________________   Dam shame about Clowney. I view this as a bad move. I feel clowny is well worth the 7.7, even as a backup. He played hard the whole year without help. I just feel he would have helped more than either DJ Johnson or Barno.  My only cope is he's 32 and at any point his miro-knee could force him to drop off a cliff performance-wise. I wanted to keep him around at least until the trade deadline and if no chance at playoff, flip him for a anything. NFL is a meat grinder, no love for locals....
