WMD Defense -- Williams Merriman Dareus

[Buffalo Barbarian]

Thought this deserved its own thread as it could have gotten lost in the sauce.

 

WMD, or Weapons of Mass Destruction, is a pretty darn good nickname as long as Williams Merriman Dareus live up to the billing.

 

One thing that Nix and Gailey should be given credit for is bringing in big, tough, nasty, fiery, emotional leaders, especially on defense. Merriman, Dareus, Barnett, Sheppard, Morrison, A Williams, all fit that mold (although Barnett is not big, he plays big and hits like a truck). It's a huge difference in previous players and attitude. We got rid of some soft players and brought in big tough guys. Add the weight that Carrington and Troupe put on and we are going to hit some people.

 

Hopefully, that transfers to the scoreboard, but I am excited for the defense. Merriman and Dareus look like killers. W should benefit from the attention M and D will garner.

 

KC will be a nice little starting test with the good run game, on the road, in a tough stadium. But let's go WMD!

 

Kudos to stony for the nick, if he thought of it.

 

 

Love it!
