Our passing down D-Line

Yes very dynamic and on paper even better than 2003 Panthers' D line. The main sub back then for passing downs was just to bring in Al Wallace, right?

 

When Kris Jenkins was at his most dominant.  That group was amazing. 

 

That 2003 group won many a game for us.

Agreed, the lack of depth behind Shane Burton showed though, Jenkins et al was so gassed at the end of the superbowl there was no push from the dline. And of course foxball defense doomed that. Might as well have blitzed everyone! But I digress..

The interesting thing about this D line is the depth! Very much in the mold of the Giants. If we are so lucky as to face Brady in the superbowl again, I guarantee you Hardy and Short won't be gassed and will run rampant on the Pats' (or any team's) O line, even into overtime.

    • I am high, but that’s besides the point! The blue line is not good right now. I’ve said it all year. I don’t think this group meshes well. Slaven has been just OK Niki up and down Miller up and down ghost and Walker have been your most consistent guys. Maybe it comes together more towards the playoffs
    • I was expecting to see more cap room moves by now, which may be to suggest that we are not going to be that aggressive.  I have mixed emotions about that (because I think we have 3 needs on D and 3 needs on O--starters).  If you look to the draft for 3 starters, that is ambitious.  We need 6
    • Yeah we shouldn’t be competing with teams, bidding wise, to sign a WR. There will be one for us and our budget.  I keep saying, how many balls will there be to go around anyway? One thing good I will say for this offense is the ball has been spread around at times. Seems like I remember seeing a large number of guys have caught passes in a game. Or been targeted at least. 3 RBs 4 or 5 WRs 2-3 TEs type of stat lines. 10-11 guys.  Not every week but that happens.    As far as WR in general, we need the smaller agile and quicker component to compliment what is there. After that it should be about depth, having good backups for the starters so we can run things consistently still, if a guy is out for a week or two. That is especially important in game where you have to finish the game with who you made active.
