Re: Will Andre Carter Be A Bust??

Once Springs comes back and the defense becomes more aggressive I think Andre will get more opportunities to pin the ears back and go. They will start overloading his side of the field with blitz packages and/or vice versa and he will get his chances.

That doesn't make any sense. Springs coming back has no impact on Carter being able to "get his chances" to hurry the quarterback. Springs' injury only negates our ability to blitz.

Carter has an opportunity to "pin his ears back" on every play right now.

Springs will be another threat that teams will have to adjust pass blocking schemes for. Don't forget, Shawn led our team in sacks 2 years ago.

Right. And that sure tells you someting about the defensive ends we've had, doesn't it?

Three seasons later, nothing's changed.

Finally, some pressure. Carter and Daniels -- 4 games, 2 sacks.

Yee ha.

Having Springs back will have an impact on the d-line. Springs is our best cover corner, and the longer he can stick with a wide receiver and shut them down, the longer time our d-line has to get to the quarterback.

Again, in the scenario you wrote, that's called a coverage sack. And here's the thing, no team's pass rush should have to rely so much on a corner. That proves there's a problem with the front four getting to the quarterback.

Because Springs is out makes it more important to get to the quarterback quickly. Up until this game, Carter hasn't been able to consistently provide that.

LOL! Dude, you're awesome. This 4% thing never came up when he was with the Niners. Interesting.

I'm glad that wasn't your 10,000th guy, you're just wrong. Humans have body fat for one reason, to survive through famine.
I don't think Carter has to worry about that.
I have recently gone from around 20% to 12% and have felt great benefits even in brain function.
Talk about brain function, How could you side with niner's fans. Do they even know what they're doing with their players?
Part of the benefit of having a great coaching staff is the advantage in player development whether you got them by way of draft OR free agency.
Carter had a beastly year with the niners and faded, obviously he has potential.
Gregg Williams is a proven defensive coordinator, head coach material, and he sees something in him others have failed to realize.
Saunders is one of the best reciever coaches in all of football, it seems like an easy call to make after this game but look for the best corps in the league to have a big year.
Superior coaching, that was my point heheheheeee I'm shitfaced, hail

Re: Will Andre Carter Be A Bust??

I think if we had 2 bulldozing DT's and a secondary that could cover Carter would have astronomical numbers. We have to draft cover corners, and run stuffing DT's. Look what happened to the Ravens with Ngata/Gregg- well you dont hear much from TPryce yet but they may lead the league in sacks. I dunno i would like to see us go to a 3-4 if we dont draft a DT next year, they seem harder to come by because it is an unglorified position compared to LB, we have to create a pass rush w/o taking guys from the secondary to make it. the front 4 is doing a horrible job this year just as they have for the past 6 years. Adding Poseyand Mac. we should be showing glimpses of 3-4 if our only DT is Griffin. This is crazy Carter will be a bust until the secondary can cover everyone every play. If he likes it or not, what he has done this season only proves despite his amazing body/strength? that he is too undersized to play that DE and is better suited in a 3-4. His size would make him much more intimitating than D. Ware or any OLB in the league--oops forgot about Merryman. 3-4 is the way to go for the current selection of guys we have.

He was in a 3-4 last season and didn't play very well. I'm not sure that he would be any better this year.

You excuse poor play because he was a 49er? I say poor play is poor play, no matter what colors you wear.

We got good DT pressure that werent moved out of the way and AC has more production. Just as I stated, cuz Im high on the Gospel of Gibbs.

Testify and f***** Hail
