.Buzz Posted September 13, 2021 Author Share Posted September 13, 2021 How excited are we on a 1-10 scale to see Von (who looks all the way back) and Chubb next week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After the pressure we gave up against Houston, this week looks terrifying. Oh yeah...their secondary is pretty awesome too. Hopefully the plane ride east has some negative effect on them or it could easily be another ugly result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 (edited) So...watched the broncos/giants game on replay and some thoughts.. Denver didn't run the ball particularly well, but they did stick with it. They ran a lot out of shotgun, and did finally get a long run late in the game. I thought the Giants handled the pass rush fairly well. There was a coverage sack early but otherwise Jones had time to throw. Broncos hardly blitzed at all. Most impressive thing was Denver's secondary. Man there were just not a lot of open wrs. Especially on short and intermediate routes, not much space at all and very little YAC. Bridgewater was ok. He's very accurate on short stuff, but there were some longer throws where his arm strength, or lack thereof, looked like an issue. Did well to extend some plays. Also..decision making was pretty good. Only one throw i would say he shouldn't have attempted, but he got away with it Edited September 13, 2021 by Charles Grammar fix 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhanYouDigIt Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 I know I am looking ahead but I’m dreading week 3 against the Cards. They better fix some **** this week and at least be competitive against the Broncos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re good though for sure. Don’t really see us having much of a shot with how our defense looked against a QB with mobility like that.

If we don't turn it over, game should be close at halftime. Difference for us will be whether or not we commit to running the ball early. If Trevor throws it more than say 35 times, there will be multiple picks and sacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even weird, tbh. The Titans were legitimately the worst defense in NFL history in a handful of categories last year, and it doesn’t look like they did much to fix it. A good number of mediocre offenses are going to do that to their defense. But the bad news is, we’re in the same boat as of how things look right now.

That unit is def bad, more so just mean the wholistic beat down they did. Titans offense with Henry, Julio, Brown, etc. managed 13 points themselves. That Arizona defense has some players of course, but I could see that being a shootout type game tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Trevor throws it more than say 35 times, there will be multiple picks and sacks. It sounds like Urban wants to run the ball enough to have a balanced attack, but when we got down by a couple of scores, it put us in a position where we had to pass more than he would have otherwise liked. As far as Trevor throwing the ball, the picks don't bother me all that much because he is just going to have to go through a rookie learning curve on that. He seems like the type who will learn quickly from his mistakes and try to keep the same mistake from happening again in the future. You're definitely right on when it comes to the sacks, Charles. Hopefully, we can limit those as much as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have my rushers keep him contained and in the pocket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd go with 4 guys rushing Cisco at the deep safety. Wish we had 2 athletic mlbs that could cover to make the team better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
