Our passing down D-Line


Zod

Recommended Posts

How much are we going to see both rookies on the field at the same time? Assuming 1 is the best run stiffing DT & the other the best pass rushing DT in teh draft, and with our depth & rotation. 95, 92, 96, 76 & 95, 68, 76, 90? That's my guess at most run & pass situations, still have rotation to plug&play....

Bottom line is our DLine is deff improved from last year! i dont think we will have any bryce brown repeats this year. We have the makings of a very formidable defense that should hold its own against any team we face! As long as RR gets in the film room shows the rookies what not to do we should be just fine! I personally cant wait to see what Hardy and johnson do to kapernick and that bs read option! Hopefully they take a play out of the Ravens book and hit him EVERY SINGLE PLAY! The Kraken will prbly be foaming at the mouth in Nov!!!

I was going to agree with you but then i watched this..

our current roster might be good on paper, but until they put it the results- they are just another good D-line

we haven't even seen our 2 rookie DTs play yet and we a crowning them better than 2003 D-line???

we go to the NFCCG and beyond- then we can have a discussion about them being better..

Goosebumps man, goosebumps. I was only in 7th grade at the time but that sure was exciting.

I was at the Lions game that year and some, what I assumed to be crazy drunk Asian, was running up the stairs on the upper deck shouting "we going to Houston". I looked at my dad and we were in agreement this guy better take a seat before he plummets down the stairs and over the railing.

Sure enough, he was right. I will never forget that crazy Asian, and the year we went to the dance.

Delhomme magic sidearm poor mans Brett Favre almost pulled it off.

Assuming we aren't forced to play cover three I agree with you. We have a physical secondary and I'm hopeful the third year of another defensive guru will play out like the third year of another man affectionately nicknamed foxy. However, I have yet to wash out the sour taste of 2010. Hopefully this years team can provide some mouthwash.

    • It's not impossible to go from worst to first.  We kept Evero because anyone in there right mind knew our defense was destroyed by injuries, not the scheme.  Evero has been given a plethora of talent between free agency and the draft, not to mention getting DB back. I fully expect our defense to be very good.  I have no reason to think Jones would say something like that unless he truly felt like that.   
    • We would’ve played Florida and lost in the 1st instead of the 3rd round.  Montreal would have been the 8 seed.
    • I can't get behind a purely subjective re-draft as a method of defining "top-10 QB" status. That invites bias based on vibes/hypotheticals and can ignore actual on-field performance. You and others have said that Bryce has to be a top-10 QB to justify the pick. That's a high bar, which I'm not against, but we need a clear, consistent way to measure it. When I bring up metrics that Bryce has registered in the top-10 in like BTT%, P2S ratio, catchable deep ball rate, etc... they're waved off as either irrelevant or the expected baseline performance. Meanwhile, volume stats like passing yards or win-loss records, both of which depend heavily on roster talent, health, and coaching, are treated as definitive. That's where the inconsistency kicks in. If no performance metric ever counts in his favor and the answer is always going to be "he should be doing that," then we're not evaluating him... we're just holding him to a curve he can't win against. If this is really about performance standards, then let's define them. But if it's just about confirming prior takes based on height and weight, then let's call it what is it and stop pretending that this is a football analysis discussion.
