"I've seen what a feeding frenzy looks like."

"I've seen what a feeding frenzy looks like." - David Gettleman on the virtues of having a monstrous defensive line

 

 

Today we saw our first feeding frenzy in the Gettleman Era.

 

 

With our young, extremely talented defensive front there is no limit to how far this team can go. Not to mention the offense.

 

 

Today all aspects of the game were clicking. I said before the Buffalo game, if we go into the bye at 1-2 we will have a good shot at jumping out to a 6-2 or 5-3 record, and anything can happen from there.

 

The past two seasons we have come out of the bye very flat.

 

In 2011 it was the 30-3 beatdown by the Titans. Last year it was the Dallas loss.

 

 

These next 4 games is where Rivera has the chance to prove he can be a head coach in the NFL.

if we come off the bye and beat the cards into the ground i'll finally believe rivera's found some sort of groove.

 

as for feeding frenzies, i'm sure our line is licking their collective chops at the prospect of facing carson palmer's statuesque ass after the bye

In 2010 when I was hoping we would draft Cam I argued that drafting a DT wasn't that big of a deal.

Yeah, I was wrong. Star has been amazing so far and the entire D-line is better because of him.

I'm still glad we got our QB, but I admit I was completely wrong about how much a DT can impact an entire defense.

To be fair I'm kinda glad we waited for Star.  Dude might be a few pegs ahead of Dareus.  Gotta see how the season plays out, still too early.

If he needs to remember what Greg looks like he can just go in the bathroom and look at the imprint on his back.

 

My favorite hit of all time was when The Kraken smacked the poo out of him and knocked him out of the game. The refs said it was roughing the passer, but that looked like a clean hit to me. It was like watching a panther take down a goat. Beautiful carnage.

 

Rodeo is the man btw lol

 

 

Palmer doesn't need to watch tape on Hardy, he's lived it.

This might explain something we won't have next week:

 

Ex-New York Giants’ linebacker Chase Blackburn said he helped his new team decipher the Giants’ offense.

“I had an idea of what they run and what they like to do in situations,” Blackburn said. “We had a great game plan going in. I’ve been sharing all the information all week. Guys, all of us, linebackers were out there knowing what to do; (defensive backs) knew what kind of routes they were going to get off the route combinations. It makes for a big difference when you can play the game at that speed. We were able to play fast because we were aware of what they were going to do.”

    • But that's the point, if the locker room feels that way, then you're going to upset them by still keeping Bryce around and playing him over the Top 10 pick. Again, it goes one of 3 ways... 1. Bryce plays well enough to earn an extension 2. Bryce still sucks and we draft his replacement who starts Week 1 with a new QB as his backup 3. Bryce still sucks, we draft his replacement in the 1st, but they start the season backing up a new vet QB who was brought in to be his mentor. With an OUTSIDE chance at a 4th option where Bryce plays well enough to convince the team to let him play out the 5th year option and then make a decision.  Which I can't see it happening, but there is still a non zero chance of that happening I guess. The only way we draft a QB next year and still have Bryce on the roster, is if we're taking someone in the middle rounds hoping to develop them as a long term backup to Bryce.
    • I hear you. But I am not absolving Legette just because he is from my neck of the woods or anything else.  Tge comment was more about the fans uneven application of blame.  I do agree that there is a noticeable disconnect between him and the QB and that he might do better with a more polished and capable delivery man.  Abd don’t feel that they used XL right, or at least how I expected it to look.  And that could be a function of a reticent WB that shies away from that style of attack. I mean it was either him or Canales that pretty much eliminated downfield from the playbook - even while we see guys running free at times. It Could work if they commit to it.  Whoever isn’t committing. 
    • Lot of passion there.  Look, if Bryce plays down to the level that we feel the need to draft a QB high, you don’t think the locker room might be ready for anything that helps them win?   There are s lot of angles to this that could come into play depending on what happens this year.
