Expect first interceptions this Sunday.

Espn Power Rankings has this to say about Jake Plummer and the Broncos:

"Jake Plummer has thrown for only 288 yards in the Broncos' last two games. But he hasn't thrown any INTs and the Broncos have won both games; they'll take that every week."

If that's the case, our secondary should have its first pick this Sunday, because one thing that William's Defense will do is stop the run. Plummer will be forced to pass and I really like how our secondary matches up in this game.

I guess our Linebackers have a pick, but not our secondary yet.

That is what I think as well. I feel like the Skins defense will force Jake to pass more than he wants to, which will be a good thing for the Skins D. However, the Skins secondary needs to get healthy and back on the field. We need Taylor and Harris back in there this week.

What's an INT worth when you don't win the game?

We really need to start getting some pressure on the QB. Jake will force alot of bad throws when he is pressured. But its has to be somewhat controlled. He can also hurt you if you get him moving out of the pocket alot. We need to pick our spots, confuse him on the look, and send the "HOUSE". I hope their D softens up a bit this week. They have looked pretty good so far. Portis will be extra motivated this week, hopefully he will go off!

Part of the reason we have no INT's is the fact that we haven't put any body into a position of catchup, and what I mean by that you have to be up by more than 1 score in the second half, and force teams to take more risks in the air, teams right now know they are in the game most of the way, and try to be more methodical and conservative till late, they know we wont score many points so they don't take uneccessary risks.

I think if the Broncos win it will be their "play action" or "bootleg" plays. Denver runs the bootleg better than anyone and we sure know how the skins D reacts to those plays...wait, LaVar isn't on the field...might be able to stop it this week!

Is the reason for the few turnovers is that we run a conservative D. I know evryone is laughing at that statment. What I mean by this statment is that we make the tackle before we try to knock the ball lose. We make sure we defend the pass before we go for the int. Alot of offensive big plays are on D's that go for the ball instead of the making the play and Williams may strees making the play before going for the ball.

I can agree with that, instead of conservative I would say they are really big on fundamentals of tackling, stopping the run, instead of the D that consistently goes for the big play stripping the ball, jumps for the ball misses and lose the big play, rushes the passer and creates lanes for the run.

Plummer has no INTs in the last 2 games but he still has 3 total on the year.

I think it's a good bet we'll get at least one on him.

I can't see him going 3 games with no picks. That would be very un-Plummer like.
