Give them the props: our DTs looked Good


TANTRIC-NINJA

The defense as a whole was really good IMO. CJ was disruptive and the line got hands to bat passes down. I cannot remember seeing that many three and outs in a while.

One of my many highlights from preseason game #2 was seeing Mcclain and Edwards getting stops and moving the line. Mcclain was especially active and Edwards is looking like Buckner 2.0 as the vet that can read plays and be an extra coach on the field.

Keiser has solidified himself as a solid rotational guy if that was even in doubt..Viva la D-line!!

Any preseason "im not impressed by Rivera" this week?! Didnt think so.

I'm not sure if you heard yet.But it was only Miami. I'm sure the resident pessimists will be along shortly to enlighten you.

And? We've faced offenses last year that were worse than miami, and still walked all over us.

We showed improvement. We need to keep playing like this.

Let's see... our O does average in a pre-season game and the homers are quick to remind you we used a vanilla offense. But our D looks great and they never seem to grasp the other team was using a vanilla O.

Wait until Game 1 before you start getting excited. The pre-season show next to nothing.

Type of offense has nothing to do with getting dominated at the LOS.

This. Winning trench battles right now is more important than diagnosing the opponent's schemes. We wanted toughness at the point of attack and we saw that last night against their first team. How could anyone not have been pleased with that effort? Plus, it was a reflection of Rivera's message.

    • I tend to look at all of these guys and wonder how committed they are to doing special teams? It's a big deal when you're fighting for roster spots. And we need massive refreshes to all phases of the special teams game. And the idea that four or five of these players could see rotational use outside of special teams would be a win. This team has accumulated quite a bit of dead wood over the last five years and its time to take an axe to some of it. These new fellows have a shot to benefit from that if they can really push. That being said, wow that receivers room is crowded right now. I'm not sure if I was a vet player with more than 2 years experience other than Adam Thielen if I'd be too sure of my future here. Tet is guaranteed a spot, Coker earned his for sure and they aren't done with XL developing yet. That's only two to three spots left for the entire room. It's going to be very competitive and better for Bryce's future, too. Safety and linebacker are the opportunity spots here this season. There's room for the right guy and we may see a starter eventually from one of these UDFAs, either by merit or injury.   
    • Aho and Jarvis just gripping it too tight right now. Relax, play their 200 ft game and the shots will start to find the net. Freddie has been excellent and welcome back Mista Svechnikov. Burns.....well, thank goodness for Slavin.
    • Supposedly he plans on staying in college for all 4 years.
