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.

    • This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.
    • Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?
    • When we didn't trade him to the Rams or the Bears (I believe the Bears said they would take one of Brown/ Burns/DJ Moore) we should have just signed him and kept him.  We should have traded him to the Rams obviously and we should have kept DJ and traded Burns.  We made all three wrong choices with Burns lol.
