DT

I'm excited about McClain.

Same, I've heard nothing but good things about him so far. Aside from him holding out of course.

Maybe he'll be like the last rookie hold out we had.

Tweets are saying some good stuff. From Twitter:

McDermott brings the blitz at Newton. Jordan Pugh comes free outside, Sione Fua inside.

Fua again with interior pressure. Gets to cam (who took snap from under C) in less than 3 seconds

In next team period, defense answers, with Eric Norwood and Sione Fua picking up "sacks" (they're not allowed to actually bring down QB).

Gabe Watson anyone?

[Jackofalltrades]

Need a fatass? I'm available.

Where's Ted Washington when you need him?

Sing kemo back and watch him injure himself in 2.4 seconds.

Not a very fair assessment, other than that lost season I don't recall him missing much, if any time to injury.

It is what it is JoaT.

[Jackofalltrades]

Or is it? Which is my point.

I wouldn't mind Kemo back. He'd come cheap and he's very good against the run.

no no no no not another kemo

i can't stand watching a DT play the pass like the offense is calling a run up the middle

But that's his job, to consume blocks and allow others to make plays. What did you think Edwards was here for, or Fua?

[frash.exe]

what about when we don't blitz backers?

Edwards has some pass rushing moves and agility and can collapse the middle. Kemo was a fat stiff who had absolutely no capability in that department. The kind of NT we're looking for isn't as one dimensional as Kemo was.
