Just wanted to show love. Defense never missed a beat when he stepped in the middle, he showed plenty of ability to read an offense and adjust the guys around him accordingly, and he was as sideline to sideline as it gets.

If Like doesn't pass protocol (and I don't think he will) I am perfectly damn fine with Klein as the Mike.

Thought he played well. The only thing I didn't understand is why he was in the nickel with TD instead of Shaq. Isn't that why we drafted Shaq was for coverage? 

I think the plan for Shaq is let him learn behind Luke and TD and have him replace TD when he decides to retire after winning a few Superbowls. Plus he behind on reps because of injuries during camp.

The Jags were heavy in free agency and had a good draft--10 new starters.  So when you say.. "We played the Jags", do you know what you are talking about?

Bortles needs a T, a WR (Marquis Lee was out).  The D could use a player or two, but they are not far away.  I bet they win 6 games or so.

Perfectly fine with an okay guy playing instead of the best linebacker in the NFL. Well okay then.

Note the 'If Luke doesn't pass the protocol' caveat implying that Luke will not be available.  Not sure how you reached your conclusion, but OP's post was pretty clear.

Much like Luke and Beason, though obviously a tier or two below them in talent, Klein is a natural MLB playing out of position on the outside.  He brings value as the backup Mike and while it would be best to never see him there he showed that he can step in and provide respectable play.

    • I don't really like the phrase, "moral victory". I get what's meant by it, but does that mean that if you do the opposite (play poorly but win) it's an immoral victory? 🤔
    • I blame Evero because he is overrated. Vance Joseph created the defense in Denver that he took credit for. Wilks ran the ball down his throat and Darnold had a 103.8 rtg.  Last year we were decent in yards allowed, and horrible in everything else. Only reason? We kept giving up good field position.  He's had his choice of players to bring in since his scheme is so "complicated." Maybe he should stop trying to be so fancy like running Cover 4 on 3rd and 1 earlier and focus on fundamentals like tackling. These years of Eric Washington, Phil Snow, and Evero must have gotten you confused on what a real defense looked like. Go back and watch the McDermott and Wilks years- this dude is sofT.
    • I tried to make it a point in the opening post that I don't think the offense is a finished product. I think we still need more talent at WR, better play calling, catch more consistently, elimate ridiculous penalties,  and be more consistency in scoring points. I'm just saying, they look markedly better than last year imo. They have scored 20 or more in 6 games and 30 or more in 2 games. And that's particularly notable considering they only mustered 10 points and 3 points in first 2 games of this year and they got blanked on 0 points two games in a row to wrap up last season . I'd say that's a market improvement.  I'm not crowning them and saying we have a top 10 offense or anything.  I'm comparing them to themselves in recent history.
