Dallas beat down 2.0! Postgame

[AnonEmouse]

Not many CBs can play 100% shutdown coverage, never mind being a 2nd tier guy up against some of the best in the game. He's no Prime Time, but he's an upgrade offer Norman and a damn sight cheaper. Can't see the need to be so critical. And Fuller fell down diverting Cooper, giving him a big gain. Don't see any posts about that. I'd like to see us pick up a real #1 CB in the draft, but more than happy with Fuller, Moreland and Darby being on the roster next year. Its S and MLB we need to sort out as a priority.

Agreed. I will say, Curl seems to be developing. Had some nice plays v Dallas. Hopefully, more experience will lead to more consistency.

Not going to lie, this free agency was a huge surprise.

Darby
Thomas
Fuller
JD M
Kyle Allen


All have played Huge roles to this team, I know Allen is done but when he was playing he actually looked solid.

I was one of the fans that bitched about this FA class but I’ll gladly eat my crow now.

Considering how much help we needed at CB, we did particularly well there I think. Will be interesting to see how Thomas develops. Trending well.

I'm very aware. Doubling down, I see. I stated teams coming into games overconfident is merely fan speak and mainly doesn't have any merit in the true scheme of things.

The Steelers can beat the Ravens by 1 or 31, and I highly doubt they'll come into the game overconfident versus us.

Props to Curl, love what that 7th round rookie brings to the table. Another Kyle Smith gem same goes for James Smith-Williams.

Right there with ya. Enough crow to go around. Really solid. I hope this becomes a trend.

Contrast these signings with the big deals BA and company put together like Norman and Collins.

Really excited going forward to see what RR and KS come up with. Have a totally different feeling/vibe going into this off season.

I wonder how much having a competent coaching staff that can teach and develop young talent and more importantly install a system that works, the players now believe in, and the players actually enjoy playing in. It might have as much to do the results on the field, as picking the perfect player.
Sometimes having a coaching staff that can instill confidence to the young players on the field is half the battle. I now see the players playing with joy and confidence. It has been a long time I could say that.
Our recent past coaching staffs were so devoid of ability.

he definitely should, he's our second best S available including Everett.

Just thought that kind of effort by Moreland deserved prop. Love DB who play tough against the run!
