Am I wrong in thinking MLB is our biggest weakness on defense?

Okay..lol

Pride and Jackson play like they don't want contact.. Boston goes for big hits instead of wrapping up and tackling.. I don't see a avoidance of contact I see bad angles and bad tackling..

You don't say....

Most people here probably just don't understand your love affair with Boston...

Are they?  The Falcons had one of their best games on the ground last week, making Gurley look like old Gurley.  We didnt Necessarily shut them down today either

They still only score 16 points.. Yards don't matter poo.. Points is all I care about.. last 4 weeks holding teams to 21 or less is a improvement.. And way better then we all thought they would be..

Well I choose not to be a sheep and know a little football so I'll go with what I see with my own eyes..

 

I don't what you ppl see but there are 7 kill shots in this video alone.. A player that is taking that many illegal shots on pass catchers isn't the type who avoids contact... Mike Mitchell must avoid contact as well..lol

See, those of us who actually do "know a little football" know better than to go by highlight reels

not like we have money and sht...don't give hernia a reason to spend..

You could make a five minute highlight wheel of his flying whiffs alone.

Then show the proof of avoiding contact... It is a highlight film but it shows exactly what I said.. A player who try's to blow players up not avoid contact.. It shows a player who looks for contact .. Show Donte Jackson highlights you won't see alot of tackling or big hits because he does avoid contact.. Or just show Tre Boston avoiding contact..

[WOW!!]

Just a quick point ..

Run time 17sec .. Boston runs a cross field to deliver a blow to Cooks.. Instead of doing what players who "avoids contact" do like dive at the legs or push the guy out of bounds.. He went in shoulder 1st to deliver a hit.. That is not a player who avoids contact..

Not saying Boston is a great safety or even avg. at this point.. But some of the criticism is unfounded.. Just like they were for Bradberry...

Going to play devils advocate here.

So by that metric.  That stats/yards dont matter and only points.

 

We've scored 21+ in every game this year until today.  So that seems the the offense os doing just fine, and TE isnt that big a weakness

Linebacker, safety, etc. would do.

21 isn't the benchmark anymore.. Good Offense are avg. 26 or more a game now.. That is the difference in this offensive focal point league.. 

And Again we thought the offense would be serviceable on paper.. The defense was supposed to be way worse then this.. 

But to end this I agree MLB is 1a for me and TE can be 2nd or 3rd..

Care to offer an explanation of that big whiff he had in the red zone today that led to a touchdown?

[WOW!!]

Run time 2.50 Whitehead misses a tackle giving up a 1st down then gets drag by Kemet for 1st down on the next play.. He is garbage by all metrics for a MLB.. Can't tackle, can't cover, can't fill the hole, slow and causes penalties..
