3-tech DT

[iamhubby1]

Van Bergen is like 290, can't we use him as a 3-tech?, Besides aren't DT just run-stuffers in McDermotts system? Pressure comes from DEs and LBs as far as i've understood

Two thingz Rivera wants out of his DTs. Hold the line. And take up three blockerz. On running playz. On passing playz you have to add some disruption.

Think of it as a funnel. Keep everything inside the tackle box. There are more defenderz in the middle of the field. So if you can keep plays from getting outside. Your chances for success increase.

So in a sense, you are correct sir.

But you may be a little off on Van Bergen. Because at 290, anyone in the middle of the line is tiny tiny tiny. Edwards is 325, so you need some beef as well as athletism. Plenty of big guys. Slimmer pickins' on big guys with talent.

Man, I have been on a roll. Been home for two hours and have not stopped typing. Sheew.

I love myself so much I double post. Aren't you guys glad I didn't go to the bar like the wife said?

[rayzor]

yez.

Spent the first 36 years of my life going to bars alone. After 20+ years of marriage, feels strange to go to the bar alone. Hence, my Huddle fascination.

I know. TMI

Now I see what you were saying. This is something I wholeheartidly support. McClain has made strides this offseason. Puts him ahead of the curve. And I beileve it was because of the experiences of his rookie year.

Few DTs are sure things. You just have to draft them and give them the tools they need. Some staffs seem better suited for this than others. Our new regime did a fine job with the kids. Lots of flashing going on.

It is year two for a team that was not well stocked. We made strides this year to put ourselves in contention. Next year is the year our true destiny will be forged.

Stooooop!!! You're going to get me to start jonesing for next season before this one has even begun! :lol:

I remember during Rivera's press conference when he first took the job and said that he believed that it takes a player about 3 years to make the transition from college to professional football. I wouldn't mind the team getting things done early :D

I remember during Rivera's press conference when he first took the job how he believed that it took a player until their third year to "get it." I wouldn't mind the Panthers getting it just one season sooner :D

Hey, dream big or go home.

You hear all the time about this or that being ahead of the curve. Why not us?
