Dont get me wrong I love offense, but the bigger weakness coming into this season was our defense. They were good last year, but they didn't have the edge to them where you felt you could count on them in big moments or against better teams. Looking forward to seeing this unit tested out the gate against the Rams offense. I characterize last year’s D as good but far from dominant. And I think that’s just the nature of McFrazier’s schemes more than anything else. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really hard, in todays NFL, to have a clutch/dominant Defense - especially against elite QB's - without a reliable pass rush. Replace Hughes or Addison with Von last year and we are the reigning Super Bowl Champions. That Defense, even without Tre, isn't getting torched by Mahomes evading pressure all day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a legit pass rushing DE, a solid interior rusher in Oliver, and maybe we have something in AJ or Rousseau. This D should be scary in obvious passing situations. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we are too critical of Thad sometimes 🤷🏻♂️ We learned early on to couch the news in a certain way, like “everything turned out fine, but you’re not going to believe what your son did at school today”. It heads off that sinking feeling of terror in your gut. “It’s ok, alright, tell me the rest”. But that doesn’t get as many clicks, I guess. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

78thealltimegreat Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 (edited) Knox has a flaw he has stone hands he’s a terrific athlete and not a bad blocker also will make amazing catches but he has a flaw he drops easy passes. Now you know why he loves to play with Allen. Josh makes anyone look good certainly not Vice Versa.

Super raw prospect who transitioned to TE (a position that notoriously takes a lot of time) from QB when going to college and had very little college production behind Metcalf and Brown. I'm sure you were just invested in calling him "stone hands" prior to last years breakout and are still ready to be "right." He's done nothing but improve and is a TD machine who seems to shine in the big moment. It's crazy to want to move on. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I think about Knox last year, first thing that comes to mind is that spectacular catch he made in the playoffs against New England. No idea how he managed to grab the point of that ball and still have the awareness to come down with his toes inbounds in the corner of the end zone. That was a 9.5 in terms of difficulty. 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
