  1. Ankou didn't play much it was Oliver at 75% of defensive snaps
  2. No doubt I mean how could they possibly have held up on the back end w th dline squaring off against the Great Wall of Hakeen Adeniji/Jackson Carman
  3. That's who was in on the first snap yes We were missing Jones and Miller, Oliver played his normal invisible in the playoffs self
  4. If I knew how I'd be coaching professional football Teams like KC and Cincinnati are somehow able to perform above their regular season level on defense in the playoffs We have seen the opposite phenomenon
  5. We had a lot more talent than that Bengals offensive line
  6. Look we all understand we are talking about the thinnest of margins when it comes to crunch time The concept that there may be the greatest room for improvement wrt an underperforming playoff defense in the defensive HC's management of it isn't ridiculous at all
  7. They weren't great, they were adequate I suppose we have to set the bar somewhere
  8. 😂😂 @mragscan speak for himself personally and again to the point of the thread- whether it's poor talent identification by Beane or poor usage/development by McDermott another first round pick on dline would be a misallocation
  9. A real triumph of defensive acumen
  10. I don't see any difference makers either, I'm saying chalking to the massive discrepancy in regular vs postseason performance to 'talent' or lack thereof is inconsistent analysis imo
  11. I better not find you or your kind in the Expenses re-signed thread saying it's a good move then😂😂
  12. 😂😂👍That's all I wanted to say at first But this idea that there's no talent on the defensive line was too tempting to ignore lol
  13. At some point eyerolls are all they have l ft😂😂 I guess the question in relation to the thread then becomes- how many first round defensive picks do we need on the defensive line to make it work for McDermott, and if Beane can't identify them properly anyway what's the point of wasting it?
  14. 😂😂oh you really are going w that Ok then
  15. Ok so the defense, bereft of dline talent, ends up 4th in regular season sacks due to schematic brilliance vs bad teams...largely thanks to McDermott's schematic aptitude...which unfortunately only works vs bad teams as shown by their postseason implosions... This really what you're going with lol
  16. Well you've got @GunnerBillagreeing w you that Oliver is mid after recently saying he was 'a tick below Chris Jones and Aaron Donald'😂😂😂 No Legit don't understand your point
  17. Is it really so hard to understand that good teams w good OLs don't give up as many sacks ffs
  18. We have good dline players who suck in the postseason No inconsistency
  19. For the 10th time we had a ton of sacks last season
  20. We watched them get bullied vs the Bengals backups and third stringers It's not a talent issue
  21. I'd like to see them shift some of those assets toward offense and particularly wideout...because it doesn't seem to matter much whether Beane can't pick them or McDermott can't use/develop them but we don't get the payoff come postseason. Invest in the area where we actually do perform and profit is the play imo
  22. They had the 4th most sacks in the league regular season 2023 and then just evaporated in the postseason like always That is not a talent issue
  23. So McDermott's scheme works in the regular season and then Beane's failures show up in the postseason? How convenient!
  24. So how many more early picks and FA dollars do they need to burn on dline until we have enough 'difference makers'?
  25. I do think it's largely a matter of circumstance It's why Knox's outsize TD year that got him paid just wasn't a very convincing argument imo There are a lot of TDs to go around here and they've got to go somewhere
