Outside of having an excellent punter, I can only think of one thing we do well: stop the run. This roster stinks. Am I wrong?
Last I checked the team (FO) is consistently good at disappointing everyone. Probably undisputed champions if it was a competition.
stopping the run San Fran had 155 yards rushing and 3 rushing tds New England 100 yards rushing in the 2nd half when we needed to stop them...1 rushing td Seattle 96 yards rushing Buffalo 120 yards rushing Tennessee 177 yards rushing 131 yards rushing per game for the last 5 is hardly good against the run
Good thing we've played 13 games this season instead of 5. Over those 13 games, btw, we're 6th in the league in run defense.
Defensive 3rd down percentage. Redzone D Run D Punt ret kick ret Those are the things we're really good at. If we were better at getting/avoiding TOs our overall record would be much better. If we were also more efficient passing then we'd probably be an elite team. I don't agree with the idea that this team isn't good at anything. I just think there are a few key areas that we lack. Just giving RT time to develop would probably improve one of those areas even if we did nothing else.
This is why it makes sense to build on our strength. Another talented pass rush DE and a ballhawk added to the secondary and we will almost certainly see INTs and strip sacks increase.
Offense...needs to be rebuilt...put T'eo ..Barr..Werner..or Jones in front of me and I'll take the scenario of going defense with my first pick more seriously..
