KOKBILLS Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 It's not the starting defense, nor is there a game plan installed -- it's a scrimmage. It'll be okay. Who's out? Dareus and Gilmore...That's about it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deranged Rhino Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 This D is making me nervous. The reason we went 9-7 last year is because we had great special teams and a clutch defense (unlike Pettine's D). But if out D is gonna play like this (like Pettine's D), I would expect us to be more in the 6-10 to 8-8 range Good thing we don't have Pettine's D this year then. We've got Rex's D. It's different.

1st&ten Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Darby sucks. Why don't they give Butler or someone else some playing time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saudi Arabia Rob Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Tyrod in, I wonder if he is going to rotate them again in the second half? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 This looks absolutely nothing like the Defense from last year...Nothing... you know Rex ain't showing anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deranged Rhino Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Who's out? Dareus and Gilmore...That's about it... Dareus is the most important piece of the defense, his absence can't be down played. Gilmore is also a key piece, as is Leodis. In my mind.

MDH Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 But if out D is gonna play like this (like Pettine's D), Pettine's D was good against the pass and weak vs. run. This D is getting sliced up via the passing game. Like I said, I'm not worried about the D. They'll be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Cubed Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Apparently no one listened to the broadcast when they said Rex was purposely putting his secondary in tough spots tonight. He wants to see how they communicate. They are also not game planning. It's preseason. The defense didn't look amazing last year either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris heff Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Darby sucks. Why don't they give Butler or someone else some playing time. Because it's practice, Rex giving him no help. Just like the first game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunnerBill Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 (edited) Tyrod in, I wonder if he is going to rotate them again in the second half? Don't imagine so. I think Simms gets the 2nd half or at least most of it. Edited August 29, 2015 by GunnerBill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KOKBILLS Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Not panicking about the Defense...Totally understand it's preseason...Just saying...They look awful today... Am panicking about Darby though...He's just about useless right now...No way is that kid a starter in this league... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saudi Arabia Rob Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 For pre season i would not worry about it. If this was a scheme thing it may be nothing to worry about. However, many of these plays were individual breakdowns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dibs Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Pettine's D was good against the pass and weak vs. run. This D is getting sliced up via the passing game. Like I said, I'm not worried about the D. They'll be good. The run D has been quietly stellar today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
