Mark80 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 I always think of the best defenses having a top end player at each level. Oliver, Edmunds, and White all seem to be on that trajectory. Very exciting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlando Tim Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 I do not know how they come up with some of these ratings but Oliver made some plays yesterday and for a game one of his career I was highly impressed- and even more so when I realize he made Darnold throw that one like he did.

If I get sack, cool, if I don't and my guys around me get a sack — as long as a linebacker or a DB or something don't get the sack, we good.” Great attitude from the rookie too. It was refreshing to see the line as a whole play really well. They were stuffing run lanes, batting passes, collapsing the pocket, and rarely let Darnold have time to sit comfortably in the pocket. What is wrong with LB or DB getting the sack? Often their coverage is what gets you the sack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd guess he was making a joke about competition between the position groups. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSHMEAB Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 15 hours ago, GunnerBill said: And McDermott and Frazier used Murphy and Shaq right. Shaq was out there plenty on early downs, Murphy was in their rush package. Agreed, but I'd also say that Shaq seems to have a little bounce in his step. Looks a tad lighter. Murphy still bothers me when he completely takes himself out of a play, but he brings some heat when healthy. I feel quite a bit better about the position as a whole than I did going into the season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game 1 rookie debut: About as good as anyone could dream. He will draw double teams now and that will be interesting, but he made a lot of people better this week.

I’m in the same boat with you. I thought he would be too small for DT in this league. It’s only 1 game, but I’m liking what I saw. Ive never been so happy to be wrong (so far). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did tell you.... he should have gone no later than 2nd overall in the draft. That he refused to take off a jacket and slid to #9 for the Bills was an absolute joke that the rest of the NFL will regret. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
