Peppers Vs Clady


BriningDaPain

Recommended Posts

Denver's O-line is on pace to allow the 3rd fewest sacks in NFL history. They have only allowed 8 sacks all year, but 3 of those sacks were credited to backs and TE's.

Clady has only given up .5 a sack this year I can't wait to see what he does against arguably the best DE in the NFL.

where do u find stats like that for o-linemen?

I'm trying to hunt down the article that said it but the two teams who have allowed less sacks were two Miami Dolphin teams in the 80's.

As for who the sacks were credited too... One of our Guards dad posts on our site and tells us how our players were "graded" by the coaches and he said that our O-line has really given up 5 sacks and the backs and TE's gave up the other 3..

He's still a rookie. I'de like to see if they end up having to double team him. Hell, even when they put the running back on Pep for help we should still have some type of blitz dialed up, but never do...

I'm sure if they could see a play into the future they would always have something to do because something is about to happen.:eek:

Clady receives no TE help despite the presence of Daniel Graham on this team. He's shut down Joey Porter and John Abraham by himself...rookie or not. If I had to guess I'd say the Panthers might move Peppers over Ben Hamilton at LG. He's undersized at 6'4" 290 and he's given up 2 1/2 sacks. Chris Kuper at RG has given up zero sacks this year so I expect to see Hamilton faced up on Peppers at times. The thing is, Cutler is also very mobile and gets rid of the ball very quickly so even when protection lapses he's generally either already delivered the ball or he's bootlegging around like Plummer used to.

    • What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.
    • Me, signing up for FanDuel Network, and then canceling FanDuel Network:
    • Smith-Wade for me. He has the path to some decent hefty snaps in Evero’s scheme. He held his own last year and improved as he continued to get snaps— If he makes some strides, could be a very capable nickel.  I agree with Sanders. Bryce had some trust in him that final Falcons game post crazy head-stand.  Bryce looked for him a lot that final game and made some critical catches to get us the W. Seems he’s put in major work so I’m hopeful about him.  Wallace will have an offseason under his belt. I like him a lot, was higher graded than most remember in his draft (I.e Brugler had him LB3/70 overall) but he isn’t as cerebral of an LB as we’re used to. I think he could thrive if we get D captain/film-junky type next to him— because right now that’s Jewell.  Still a bit cautious but love the talent. Rozeboom may snag some playing time from him if he’s still working out the kinks.
