What did everyone think about Stokes yesterday? 
 

Im far from an expert on CB technique but it certainly seems like he needs more reps to feel comfortable when challenged . He’s right there , it just seems like he’s not confident in himself that he’s in position to make a play. 

He was okay.  He wasn't lost by any means, but I think he's doing what most young corners do when they feel pressure and start grabbing.  Night and day difference from King.

One thing I think we need to remember is the last two teams we played don't have the best O-line. We're going to need Zadarius in the worst way to win a SB. I wish Burks could just figure it out. A speedy LB next to Campbell would be amazing.

The Lions and 9ers both have good to very good OLines?

We couldn't get **** for pressure vs Detroit without blitzing*(which we did in the 2nd half).

Kenny Clark just flat out dominated the interior against the 9ers.

San Francisco and Detroit have pretty good OLs...

Is Savage good or not?

My eyeball test?  He must be good at being a deep safety, because you never hear his name.

When he's closer to the action, he's around the ball and his speed jumps out on tape.

I think he's pretty darned good, but sometimes we don't see it because he's so deep.  And when he's close to the action?  Man...he's pretty special.

Super small sample, but IIRC Burks has "graded out" (PFF) as one of the best defenders when he's played this year.

Detroit?. I just never understood why they struggle to have good running game all these years. I dont think good oline then think the Detriot Lions.

 

49ers.. I can see that.

I'm not saying they're great or anything, but they've got a pretty good OL.
