Meeks will prove to be the best acquisition of the offseason

Pay attention son, because the Fox bashing went on for 10 pages before I got involved. No one is even bashing him. They're just stating the facts about Fox that he is conservative and he controls defense and what his coordinators do. If giving you facts is considered a troll then I agree I am the biggest troll on this forum.:)

Want see any argument from me....

Really no one was bashing fox till you showed up. One guy was venting and even said he was not making much since.

I know my arguments are a tad whack on this one....but at least for today....I'm sticking with it

So Im not your Son, but I did take you to school so you can call me your daddy. ;)

Time for a Re-rail

I haven't really checked a whole lot of pages on this thread because it turned into a gigantic squanderfug, but if Meeks' leash isn't a short one, he could very well turn this defense into an aggressive, ball-hawking unit.

Now I'm thinking, with the talent level he worked with in Indy, he definitely can do it here. The Colts spent years building around Peyton Manning, drafting offensive players in the first round time and again. Meeks had an assload of mid-round draft picks and undrafted free agents, and not a whole lot else. The individual stats of each player (except for one of the LBs usually) weren't eye popping, but the thing is, as a unit, they were very effective. Individually, Beason isn't a bust, Gamble either, Peppers, Davis, all our first round draft talent, but we've pretty much busted with all the money we spend the way they play as a defense. I'm tired of seeing millions spent every year on defense only to see them rank in the middle and give up more than 20 points a game. I don't care if Meeks' scheme leaves Beason only making somewhere around 80 tackles by season's end, if that means other players are stepping up and making plays because Meeks' scheme is utilizing them better than Trgovac's, that's good news for us.

...speaking of tackles, one thing you notice about Beason's 138 if you look a little closer at the stats (you'll notice this about Willis as well), the reason he had so many stops was partly because the Panthers defense was on the field for SO many plays. Not exactly shut down defense if you ask me. The Panthers ranked 7th in total plays from scrimmage on defense,<== and this is with a top ten offense. Also, our 3rd down conversion percentage was merely average in 2008. Panthers gave up 40%, ranked 15th highest in the league. Average TOP wasn't great either, 30:51, ranked 12th highest.

Meeks I am sure is a better gameplanner than Trgovac. That AZ game was one of the poorest defensive showings I'd ever seen the Panthers play. Fitz was on track to grab 300 yards receiving if the Cards decided to get greedy, but they took their foot off the gas in the second half.

Do you think we could get Collection together for Gayman he is suffering here.

This is a call for help, people.

I know it's seems funny, he could be so stupid but the reality is very sad. :troll:

He needs our help.

If we are indeed playing cover 2 or Tampa 2 we have the right players to do it. Beason and Davis will do very well in it as well as Marshall. Gamble seems to be good enough to play whatever he is asked too. With that said Peppers might be better because of Brian Baker. He seems to want our D-line to have more then one move and Peppers uses the Bull rush more then anything else.

The fact is we have all the Tools any D coach could ever need they just need to have the right scheme and a good gameplan to use them. I will be the first to say I really wanted Greg Williams first but I am hoping Meeks is just as good.

How about I call you lassy instead since you're my bitch?;)

I said the same thing everyone else did that Fox controls the defense and the coordinators and that he is conservative. That is just a simple fact! Its not bashing anyone. Perhaps you're just a little sensitive?:lol:

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
