Need to add some size at ILB and a legit NT.... Smart is a nice back up, but need someone with more lead in their ass that can tie up two blockers or push the pocket inside.

Just need to add that physicality to this defensive front 7.

I trust in McSnead being able to get those defensive parts next year. This year they needed to fix the offense and did so spectacularly.

Don't forget London Fletcher.
He was the straw that stirred the drink on D and in reality s HOF LB.
That's who I was referring to when I said 'DOT COM'
If you recall that was his nickname cause he was 'always online/connected' or some shit haha

One of my pet peeves is when a quarterback's name is used in plural. The Bradys of the league, the Rodgers of the league, the Brees of the league... there's only ONE! Nothing against you but Colinsworth does that all the time and it drives me crazy! There's only one Brady, one Brees, one Roethlisberger, one Rodgers. Just say you're worried about Wentz and Brees.

Rant over haha

Honestly, I'm not worried about Wentz. He's like Russell Wilson and will throw up some 50/50 balls.

Oh man, don't get me started on the Wilsons of the world!

The Saints ran all over the Bills the same way Fournette ran all over the Steelers the week before we played them. Fournette got one big 75 yd run in on the first play, but was then held to 44 yds all game. Fournette is the better back imo as well. We can stop the run, we just need to stop the run and shut down the pass as well.

It's amazing how we are 4th in the league in points allowed, 15th in yards, near the top in sacks and turnovers, give up 57.3% comp % against and a 73.2 passer rating, and people question the defense.

We are only giving up 118 YPG on the ground at 4.5 YPC, 24th in league. If we gave up 10 YPG less, we'd be 14th. Big deal.

Jacksonville gives up 120 YPG on 4.6 YPC. And for the same reason we are. They have given up a few very long runs.

This is a top 5-7 defense - the numbers will reflect it at the end of the year.

And if Miami dust's off the suck and scores 23 points we move up to 3rd. Not likely to happen though.
