Loss of Edmunds is going to expose Hyde and poyer

Said this when he signed with bears and I will say it again now.  Edmunds while frustrating sometimes made this defense what it was.  Hyde and poyer looked slow out there.  

 

Mark my words we will get torched over the middle this year when not playing Zack Wilson, and give up many long runs.

Yea but we gave Ed Oliver a big contract so they won't even get to the LB right? Right?? Did Ed play last night?

 

Oliver actually played decent last night. Doubt he plays up to his contract, but run defense seemed a lot better when he was in.

We signed Taylor Rapp for a reason. He may be starting sooner than later... and regardless of injury to boot.

Ya think.  LOL

 

Funny how our "genius defensive mind" couldn't envision that.  

 

Seems blatant.

Yes, he led all DLinemen in tackles.

Thanks for letting us know how trustworthy your sharp observations are.

interesting that we had 8 man fronts on defense with Rapp in the box as MLB at many points.

 

Did you see much of that in the first half? I saw them running it later, but not really earlier.

the contracts for Edmunds and Oliver are nearly similar, but they went with the disappearing DT.  I said this offseason, Trade Oliver, free up over 10 mill in cap room and add to the team.

I did not see it early. I may rewatch this game. Hackett showed the ability to change his style midgame, very unlike him. Once they got confidence in Hall and he got confident with himself it changed the game.

 

I definitely noticed Rapp being the leader of the defense when he moved in the box. Adjusting players, calling out formations, etc. Very interesting.

Not even Edmunds in particular, rather the complete lack of planning for it.
