15th Ranked Defense

I am honestly enjoying watching our defense. Take away the Giants game and the 4th quarter of the Falcons game I have been extremely impressed. They are young, fast, and getting better. If we can get the proper coaching and another top 10 pick, we are on our way to having a very solid D. I love our DE threesome of CJ, Hardy, and Alexander. We need a few DT's. Davis, Anderson, Kuechly, and hopefully a healthy Beason can be built around. Then hopefully Gamble comes back strong along with an improving Norman. With the right GM and Coaching, our D isn't far.

They are definitely getting better. I wonder how much of that has to do with Rivera's more hands on approach with the D from last year? With keuchly taking up the beasting in the middle, we've done nothing but improve and I see them getting even better as the season goes on.

What sucks is that at the end of last season and all off season..I said if we had a middle of pack defense with this offense we were playoff bound. WOW facepalm I couldnt of been more wrong.

It is awesome to not see our D ranked 28or 29th as usual.

i still credit that prediction. you didn't know chud was going to go all bat poo crazy on us. no one can predict that. he finally stops doing it in the chi game, and we were in it until the last 3 seconds [and that's with giving chi the ball at the 45-50 yard line every time].

    • 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.
