We got them to third and long twice, were proper tackling away from a sack on fourth and a sack on 3rd and 12, and people are complaining about the defense in a preseason game when the only issue so far has been tackling. I really lol'd at the people who said we got no pass rush. Lowry hit Wentz in like three seconds on that 4th down play. How is that not a pass rush? It's preseason and people are complaining about tackling. We're not the Seahawks. We don't tackle all offseason. It's gonna take a while. :lol: It's preseason so I don't think anyone is getting too worked up in here (most of us are half-joking), but we've looked like crap so far.

It's hard to tell. Memories of last year when people didn't want us to make the playoffs in a year where we went to the NFC Championship game.

skibrett15 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 this is good ol fashioned slop. Really enjoying agholor dropping that slant though. These RBs on philly look bad as well. Capers really bringing the heat is funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PossibleCabbage Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Since fumble recoveries are basically a coin-flip, in the long run this is going to work out for us once the games start counting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatJerkDave Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Brice is so close to being good. Nice problem to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cakeshoppe Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Gb defense really living in their backfield. Need to clean up the tackling still Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packerjmf Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Run D has been the lone bright spot so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacReady Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I choose to ignore the missed tackles and count them as a factor of the first real game contact. If you assume even half of the missed tackles are made, the defense looks good. Players are getting into the backfield quickly. Looks much different than last year when it felt like we weren't in the backfield at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CentralFC Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Man is it just me or are the DBs blitzing WELL off the edge? Capers making a point to get these guys a run at certain angles. That "Nitro" package/dime package will have some exotic looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Packerraymond Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Id be OK with Brice starting at S. Guy has burst that HHCD nor Burnett come close to having. Make Morgan a full time ILB, slot CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
