I think you both are correct. People forget how unstoppable Graham was when he has a real QB throwing to him in NO. And Cobb generally kills us. This could be a blood bath.

HTTRDynasty Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 Run defense still sucks, but our D is top 3 overall so far according to PFF. You'll notice that the two teams who played the Cardinals so far are in the top 3... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll notice that the two teams who played the Cardinals so far are in the top 3... Also notice that the Colts are #6 with the #1 grade up the middle. It is possible that in the end the Colts are a much better team than we thought. It's just two games but that's true for us also. Could be we re more like game #1 than gm #2. Too early to tell really. But give the Colts D credit. They made our offense look horrible - not that they needed much help. They were doing a good enough job of making themselves look horrible. And let's get grounded here. The run D does not "suck". The team is ranked 10th. Not awesome but certainly better than last years. In terms of yds the entire D is 1st and the passing D is 1st. The team is 2nd in scoring. Ok it's "just two games". But the data is the data. Saying they suck after two games despite being ranked at or near the top in virtually every meaningful category makes no sense. The problem against the Colts was 100% the offense. The D easily played well enough to win the game, even getting a few timely turn overs. Ok, they gave up some early yds on the ground. They adjusted. I am as pissed about the result of the game last week as anyone. But let's not just broad stroke the thing. The offense - game plan, lack of adjustments, execution, the entire thing was ****. But the D actually played pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CjSuAvE22 Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Has there been a team where two first round picks were used to draft two players who played for the same team on the same side of the ball...seems to me our scouting department only watched the ncaa playoffs....

Darrell Green Fan Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 On 9/21/2018 at 10:40 AM, stevemcqueen1 said: He's a good player, he'll come around. Smith is the one I'm more concerned with. He's got fringe Pro-Bowl talent but he hasn't put it all together for a season yet. Some games he'll just destroy the line of scrimmage and then he'll disappear for two games immediately after. I've never seen this "Pro Bowl talent" with Smith. He is the slowest edge rusher I've seen in a while. If he can't get it going in a contract year we can chalk it up as another miss by Scott M.

But Preston hasn't looked good. Much to be desired. Shout out to big Matt, and DaRon Payne for sacks today. We could really use some more timely sacks from the front seven though. But I'm happy.

TradeTheBeal! Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Front seven held up fairly well today. Much improved from last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoCalMike Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Despite the four sacks, there was plenty of times where the pass rush couldn't generate plays and it burned the seconday badly. So many times Rodgers dropped back, nothing was open.....nothing....nothing....nothing....still all day to throw.....completion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rskins91 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 How about that Jonathon Allen fella? Thinking he’s pretty good. I know there were times where Rodgers escaped and we couldn’t quite get there , but this was promising. 4 sacks all from our D line, all of whom are under 25. They’ll only get better with time.

I will be taking the 2 most dangerous players of opposing teams and predicting them to have career days for the rest of the year. As you can see by this earlier post, the accuracy in which I can predict this is infallible. You can thank me later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSSkinz Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 The Saints are scoring over 30 points a game so its gonna be a serious test next week. Good thing their offense is giving up 35 points a game, it should give our shaky offense some opportunities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
method man Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 This team needs Galette back for the speed rush. I don't have PFF access so not sure how McPhee's grades look like but, if I were to guess, he's doing above average as a run defender and below average as a pass rusher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burgundy Yoda Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Numbers looked good today, 4 sacks between Panallenidis. Edit: We need a speed rusher in this draft and an upgrade over Foster. Our D is definitely looking top 15 worthy so far and this is a massive improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGreek1973 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Best highlight of the game for me was the "Greek" taking his guy and depositing him on the lap of Rodgers. Man that was a great rush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhead36 Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Allen is a stone cold stud. Dude looked like Aaron Donald today. He should be going to Hawaii, although in the NFC its tough with the aforementioned Donald along with guys like Suh and Cox. Ion has also been great, man that power move for a sack was awesome. Payne is still a little inconsistent and right now I'd have him in some kind of rotation with Settle and/or Hood, but the talent is there and he'll be good eventually. Man just wait another year or two when these guys are all in their physical prime. Could be a special front. I still think in the long run we're better off going 4-3 with Ion at one DE and Payne and Allen at DT and find another DE. Kerrigan appears finished and Smith is a ghost 90% of the time.
