Defensive Line will have dominant year!


Who Said What?

Recommended Posts

After watching Russell Wilson run for his life and throw passes while taking hits on numerous occasions, I am super hype about our d-line this year.  Provided Alexander stays on the field for more than a series, it could be better than 2003. 

 

When we play teams that do not have mobile quarterbacks it will be even worse, because they won't be able to take off running after Monster Inc. dismantles their o-ines.  Think about how we eat up the Falcons line last year and Matty Lice just had to take the pounding.  Other than Buffalo and San Fran, we don't really play a mobile QB the rest of the regular season.

 

Thats just passing alone.  Look how well we have played the run in the Pre-season and week one.  We only gave up 43 yds rushing to Lynch yesterday.  This line is going to be feared come mid season and should be together for at least four seasons if we extend Hardy.

 

This is something I will look forward to every defensive series.

I admit it.  There have been times when I have just fast forwarded through our defensive possessions (I usually watch the game about 30 minutes behind real time to fast forwards commercials).

 

But this year I actually have been looking forward to watching our defense.

 

Guys like Wilson, Kaep, and Manuel might give us some fits because of their mobility and ability to extend plays.  With any secondary that is tough to cover, with our secondary it will be even worse.

 

But those statue QBs, I really like our ability to destroy them.

    • Does this mean only topics from within the last year or any topics with posts from the last year? i.e. if there are any old threads we feel should be kept around for whatever reasons, would a bump of that thread before the update ensure it's kept around in full or do the posts from more than a year old still disappear?
    • I'm more intrigued at him becoming our future LG. There were some people who thought he was better suited to be a guard in the NFL to begin with.  Then if Freeling ends up being a legit LT, moving Ickey to LG could give us an incredibly strong left side of our OL for years to come. Ickey has only played on the Left side his whole career, both in college and the NFL, so I just wonder if keeping him on the left side, even if shifting inside, would be better than putting him outside on the right side. Just hoping him growing up a Panthers fan will make him want to stay here and move positions than enter FA so he can stay at LT somewhere else, particularly since LT is the big money position on the OL, so he likely can get paid more by someone else to play LT than play LG or RT here for us.
