Re: Defensive line..Stop the man crushes..

Just one note,
on one of the sacks Saturday, where we did blitz, Taylor was being double team, Carter was coming off the edge. This defensive front, once they start playing packages and with gameplans is going to be our best in years. What change, that is plausible, would you want to make?

Re: Defensive line..Stop the man crushes..

I'm not sure exactly what D line man crushes you are refering to because I haven't heard any. Looking at the past few games, the D line has appeared to step up. Granted you can't expect JT and AC to be in for 2 series and make 37 and a half sacks, but the D line has looked improved. For instance, against the scrubs, Ryan Boschetti knocked down several passes. Last year, that wasn't happening at all. I have to believe that it has to do with an increased interest in the 'Skins D line improving.

Plus its just preseason. Lighten up DMV baby

I personally feel good about the way our d-line is performing so far this PREseason.

Our DLine is sooo sick. We're gonna steamroll the competition. It's the best DLine in the history of the NFL. All our guys are HoF bound. I predict 100 sacks this year!

That would be the 1st certified man crush for the Dline

Re: Defensive line..Stop the man crushes..

I'm not sure we can get 100 sacks?
What is your basis for that statement?
Do you have a link?

Couldn't find a link, but I heard it on the radio.

Re: Defensive line..Stop the man crushes..

If anything we've had an overachieving d-line for 3 of the last 4 years. I credit GW w/getting the most out of an avg. unit.

Now, after bemoaning that no high round picks were used on the line in the draft, we managed to trade for a vet who still has something left & a young guy that might be able to rescue his career & get close to his potential. In addition, Rob Jackson at least looks like he can play in the nfl. Will he be a starter one day? who knows, but for a 7th round pick, making the team is an accoplishment.

The DE position is now pretty crowded & Wilson is in serious jeopardy of being cut. If you want to complain about any position I think it'd be the lack of proven depth at LB given the age & health of the starters.

I casually mentioned it a few months back, but I'm a bit surprised they haven't experimented a bit with Wilson at LB

Re: Defensive line..Stop the man crushes..

...Stop putting the noun 'man' in front of other words. i.e. "man crush", "man purse." It's just not funny anymore. Much like the people at a rock concert that yell "Freebird!" the novelty has worn off.

interesting idea....I think he must be injured though.
I am dying to see Wilson in pass rushing situations...he has been invisible so far

Yeah and I have seen people saying Rob Jackson is going to the PS..lol. Isn't about depth this about production. Our D-Line needs to revamp. If we have some players with potential..We need to give them a chance..

I think you might need some perspective on Rob Jackson. While he's flashed some promise he's still a very green rookie. The practice squad for him isn't that outrageous of a thought.
