outsidethebox Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 That d can flat out fly. It will only improve. 767886[/snapback] They can fly alright, they flew away in the second half. I would take a HUGE D-line over a smaller quicker D-line anyday of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 They can fly, but they cannot control the line of scrimmage. Sam Adams would have been very good in the D. Fat Pat as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadBuffaloDisease Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 They can fly alright, they flew away in the second half. I would take a HUGE D-line over a smaller quicker D-line anyday of the week. I'd take a defense NOT playing 5 rookies most of the game because of bad personnel decisions in the past and injuries. But hey, that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't see the call, was there really an illegal block on DWhit's pick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

34-78-83 Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 Simpson did not embarass himself out there today and covered ground well. I like Vincent more than some, but I would consider leaving Simpson in after today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But hey, that's just me. 767912[/snapback] I agree. Everyone keeps saying this is a young team. Take a look at our starters, this team is to experienced to keep making the same mistakes time after time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justnzane Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 They can fly, but they cannot control the line of scrimmage. Sam Adams would have been very good in the D. Fat Pat as well. 767909[/snapback] Adams quite possibly, Fat Pat no. Pat is just too slow to run in a Tampa 2 scheme. he is suited more for the traditional 4-3 or a nose in a 3-4.

Brandon Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 They can fly, but they cannot control the line of scrimmage. Sam Adams would have been very good in the D. Fat Pat as well. 767909[/snapback] Having those guys would make no difference. The real reason this run D sucked today is because our DEs have a bad habit of running 10 yards upfield every play, leaving a hole big enough to drive a truck through if it turns out to be a running play. I can understand them doing that on 3rd and 8, but not 1st and 10, as was often the case today and many times last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarthur31 Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 That d can flat out fly. It will only improve. 767886[/snapback] It's a shame that can't run fast right up the gut to stuff the run or to the outside when they boune it out and stop it before the RB gains 7 yards on 1st and 10.
