you mean like when Javon strip sacked Lawrence?
Edit: we don't have Bruce or prime Von calibre player. We have lots of decent to good rushers though. It's closer to a strength than a weakness imo if for no other reason than the depth
Groot wins on the left side. Solomon has shown some ability to win quickly. Ed wins vs. single coverage. And yes, Von.
Bet we dial up better blitzes when Milano comes back.
The key to pass rush under McD has always been about having waves of fresh bodies. We haven't had that yet this year.
Other than CB, the last thing I'm worried about with our D is our pass rush. We have good pass rushers, just need them to all play.
Our size defending bigger teams is another story, but overall we're looking solid.
When he’s been on the field, Kincaid has easily been one of our best players. I’m surprised he was left off the voting list.
Rousseau got my vote. Next would be Kincaid, Benford, Cook in some order. Taron would’ve made that list if he hadn’t missed so much time.
PPG Allowed:
Chargers 13.0
Steelers 14.4
Broncos 15.0
Bears 17.0
Chiefs 17.6
Bills 18.3
We haven't played stiff competition, and it doesn't look as good in some of the advanced stats. But we've also had multiple key contributors out for extended time. This defense is better than they've been portrayed by NFL media and around here. Discuss.
How about Keon Coleman!
Josh and Joe trust him to go one on one at the goaline and win. He comes down with the football after being undercut 25 yards down the field.
Even when he's messing up taking a penalty (whch everyone did today), it's because he's shoving some poor DB into his own bench.
I'm impressed.
Ok so before someone tries to claim this is all somehow Amari's impact playing through doubles and getting everyone open, he's hardly been involved. Shakir, Kincaid, Colemen, and Cook are still our top guys.
