They are good against the run because of good LBs.
Bills game the did great up the middle.
But when aden is getting walled and spins inside. Looses contain. Rb runs outside. Thats GG.
Lbs are blitzing. So the RB runs the opposite side.
Yea thats how you get beat.
The DL isnt good against the pass. They cant generate any pressure with 4x
And even when they do generate pressure. Dont matter. Qb still makes a play.

We “were” good in the past.
“Where” are all the good players?
Mike “Weir” is a golfer.
“We’re” good.

Moore has shown absolutely nothing. Zero flashes. Zilch. Yeah it’s early, but rookie DEs who succeed in the league usually show something. Watch videos of the guy–he’s overwhelmed and overpowered regularly. The game is above his talent level.

We are some page here. I love sacks but like seeing pressure as well as it’s the leading indicator for sacks.
Today, we had both. If we can repeat what we did today for all games we will be fine upfront.
Wonnum is short term help and Moore needs to blossom into true #2 .

The one man rush was an interesting choice.

Moore is a rookie that missed a chunk of camp. Way too soon to make any judgement. If you want to judge someone on the line, look at Hutch. He has been bad against the run because he is drinking his own koolaid. He’s not a Parsons or Crosby that has elite physical talent. He thinks he’s playing like them when he’s actually playing like James Houston.
Reuben Bain hasn’t shown anything yet either. It can take more than three games for players to show their promise. Moore also dealt with some injuries during camp.

What does pressure mean when it doesn’t affect anything???
75% completion rate with pressure 75% with out.
USUALLY pressures make QBs make mistakes.
Not the lions tho. Because when you are CLEARLY blitzing. The QB knows EXACTLY what the hole the defense is.
They know the play. So all the QB has do is hit hiz mark. And any decent QB, yes even Geo Smith, can do the math to hit the open receiver

Hypothetically, let’s say you can have either a CB or a pass rusher at the deadline but not both. Which are you choosing?
And Garrett Wilson has got hands like Saints. Elite. But his catch radius just seems larger.

I know this isn’t directed at me, but is a new defensive coordinator an option too? Or just the above two options?

No brainer. If were talking starter for starter, im taking DE every day.
Aiden, CBs and LBs are 80% of the teams pressures. Meaning the other 9 DL are the last 20%. Meaning they aint it.
Branch is coming back. Mcreary looked decent at CB2.
Reed, Mcreary, Branch, izean, Clark is a good enough 5 starters.
Because this fan base hasn’t won shit
Interesting. We see things quite differently.
