Guys off the street that donā€™t know the playbook are WAY better than our starters on defense. Irvin right from the first snaps looks better than Harris.

Please pick up guys for CB. 2-3 guys must be on practice squad or sitting at home that are better than Jacobs, Harris, etc.

Please and its sad, but please.

Props to u brother. He made an impact.

Lets go Bruce. Hutch gets all the doublesā€¦so Bruce has a real shot to make a difference on 3rd down.

Heā€™s going to be singled up all the time

'Twas the night before Christmas
And on the D-line
Irvin won the game with an illegal hit
The league will assess a fine

True, heā€™s going to get a fine.

I gotta say, Irvin has me excited if heā€™s just getting started.

What about his containment though? Wouldnā€™t a 290 lb guy be better against the run? I need more versatilityā€¦ How is his coverage skills?

He won the game for us by knocking out Carr. Who would have marched the Saints down the field to take the lead. Winston isnā€™t an NFL QB. Lets see some more Bruce Irvin!

Dan would need a front-loader rather than wheelbarrow if he gives him the game ball.

A lot of people have said that the defense seems to be lacking identity/character. Maybe we just imported some Legion of Boom nastiness to provide some guidance in that area.

You do know Irvin holds the distinction of being the only guy ever ejected from the Super Bowl, right?

1 game, 1 sack, 1 QB down. Will the rest of the defense start taking notes? Justin Fields is up next, and this defense can use some nasty right now.

Yeah. Heā€™s a Dawg. They need more nasty on defense.

Love Bruce.

Agree.

Hope he stays around here even when he is done.

He is friends with Shep (Kelvin Sheppard)ā€¦

Id hire Irvin as a coach right away.

Im grateful we have Sheppard. Hope we hire Irvin as a coacb when the time comes.

Age is just a number, he is right. I hope he keeps going and stays as a coach in Detroit when he is ready.

Superstar Chase Youngā€™s snap count has now went two straight weeks and he has a whooping half a sack more over the last 4 games than Bruce Irvin had today in 13 snaps

Yeah, totally unaware that they were a grade apart in the same high school.

Bruce was the name of the mechanical Great White shark from Jaws. Just saying.

Breathtaking special effects at the time. Things must have been so much simpler back then.

He willed Kinlaw into 2 sacks.

He will be a coach here at some point.

Lets hope
