how about a thread on the defense?!

It was a different leg (I'm pretty sure it was even ankle this time) that sidelined him for the year. It's not like it was the same injury.

 

Just cut his arse already.

 

Still off the field.... Odrick has his hands full getting into the rotation when he gets back next season. Leg injury in the NFL is a big setback especially as a #1 pick.

 

I know he's still off the field. I don't think he has his hands full getting back in rotation either, he was the 2nd best DE already (not counting Starks) and he had very little offseason training in comparison to other DL members. I would be happy if he did have his hands full though (not because of you're thinking), since Merling should be back, and I hope we resign McDaniels too.

 

Merling should go away
If Paul develops at NT Starks and Langford have dug in at DT
the three rotation is big.
Calling Odrick a bust is premature I guess but he will be behind

 

Paul has been really good. He's grown as much as almost anyone else on the team IMO.

 

Well, the defense played over 70 plays, basically a game and a third of plays, the offense could not maintain drives long enough to keep them off of the field, that takes a toll.

I even saw Cam Wake was gassed, the Ravens were fresh and coming off of a bye week, I simply hope there is no hangover vs the Titans.

YBell-how do you whiff on that many tackles?
SS24-no worries, we'll cut that noose off before the crows start picking at you.
Chris Clemons-the ball won't hurt you if you catch it..honest


The fellas were not tackling well at all, they looked to me to be trying to land big hits on the Ravens rather than wrapping up.

Channing got spat upon? Cowboy up son, don't whine in the media.

 

I thought SS24 was pretty good this game. Dropped the pick 6, but shut down Boldin. You need to add Davis to that list. How do you let the old man absolutely school you like that?

 

VD sat back all day. Bummed me out.
His game is getting after it.
Noticed it early playing off. Why? he is a shutdown corner

 

Worst tackling I have seen since the Olividatti years.

 

**** that, this is the biggest copout you can make Pads.
The Defense played like *** pure and simple.

The great defenses dont use "being tired" as an excuse.

They played like ****, they played like **** early and they played like **** late. End of story.

 

That.

70 plays is as much to do with the offence as it does with the fact that they couldn't get off the field on third down.

 

Defense allowed 1 TD in five redzone trips by the Ravens.
