MD4L Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 So I’ve been saying all year the pass rush my defense brings changes games and the Cowboys go out and do that to 127.3 Passer rating Brees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve stated on multiple occasions Cuba had the best depth of pass rush in the leauge. Nothing more than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MD4L Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Lawrence was prolific tonight, I agree with that assessment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MD4L Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Could’ve had Vander Esch and Derwin James in one draft. Great pick @bcb1213 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great pick @bcb1213 I was hoping to get one of LVE or Evans with my third pick. Had LVE a little higher than Evans, but yeah, he looks fantastic so far.

Who needs a pass rush when you can have an MVP QB juke the pass rush and somehow throw a 78 yard TD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ie team 16 writes 15, team 15 writes 16 14/13 13/14 Might eliminate tanking and give these owners with down teams something fun and different to do I mean you can have anyone but Lukic write it it is fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcb1213 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Sure wasn't because Brees is throwing to four undrafted fa and Michael Thomas with Jermon Bushrod against Demarcus Lawrence with no help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Campbell and Hughes are really good and so is Flecther. But where is all this depth you're having about? You had Suggs, but he hasn't had a sack in over a month and is a role player. Thest of those guys are average to below role pkayers. Edited November 30, 2018 by Jlash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcb1213 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 BTW. Here is the list of the teams with the most sacks this year with their points allowed rank next to it followed by yards allowed Pittsburgh 11.6 New Orleans 12. 24 Arizona 26.18 Green Bay 16. 12 Kansas city 28.30 Minnesota 10. 3 So basically it's one top 5, one 6-10, one 11-15, one 16-20, one 21-25 and one 26-30 So sure a great pass rush is nice to have but it's relatively meaningless if your back seven isn't good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcb1213 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 The issue for the Irl saints right now is their only offensive player with speed is Kamara so defenses don't have to really fear anyone taking the top off. The saints were overly reliant on Ginn to be that guy as trequan Smith hadn't figured out how to beat a Jam at the line of scrimmage yet so Dallas just got real physical with their corners on the wide outs and got the pass rush an extra second or two to get home. It's good football 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thest of those guys are average to below role pkayers. Bruce Irvin, Terrell Suggs, Julius Peppers, and Derwin James are a nice load of rotational guys whom get help from the big names. Lawrence Guy and Dareus would be the run pluggers to help get to passing downs. 24 minutes ago, bcb1213 said: BTW.

Literally for 6-7 weeks consecutively Joyner helps the number two guy bc he was always going to be a relative liability in this leauge.
