Meeks will prove to be the best acquisition of the offseason

I hope anyway.

Comes in and instills discipline, the Cover 2 or a variation and if the mistakes can be cut down and guys know and play their roles, I think the boys do well.

I am like you. I surely hope he is able to turn things around. I would so love to have a tough defense that plays smart and makes few mistakes. It was really upsetting to see how many times we would hold a team in the past few years only to give up a big play on third down as our secondary was out of position or one of our linemen gets free in the backfield only to wiff on an easy sack. If Meeks can help us play defense like Tampa played using a similar system, we will be tough to beat.

I think we'll see the marked improvement in season 2 under his stewardship

You are probably right. It should take some game experience before everyone learns their roles and stop making mistakes. Hopefully they still show progress this year as well. After last year's collapse it won't be that hard.

No, the biggest acquisition was in getting Peppers to turn around and want to sign a long term agreement. After that it's Meeks, sure. Some could argue that it was Meeks that got him to want it, but I would argue that it was more that nobody else wanted him at the price in this economy... I'm sure he also didn't mind Meeks being here, but that wasn't his main motivation IMO...

I'm glad you brought this up, it allows me to post my Motivational Poster again!

Look at it this way, our defense with Trgo and Peppers last year wasn't really all that great. I think the Meeks hiring not only helped get Pep to want to sign long-term, but also re-energized the rest of our defense. Everyone is excited about it and I personally can't wait to see what they do under his guidance.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
