Herc Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Gotta say it's fucking sweet having a d hold a team under 20 points two games in a row. we had a couple of breakdowns in coverage but they were flying all over the place and did another good job stopping the run again. The sacks and turnovers will come I'm sure of it The offense is underachieving a bit but Im a big fan of running most of the offense out of the 11 personnel so I'm glad we do that and fumbles happen so whatever. I was at the game and the receivers were open every play--especially Shepard who is running just awesome routes out of the slot. It's frustrating watching a bunch of draws go nowhere but now that I'm less drunk it's not as infuriating to me. The team isn't pretty but we're closing out games and getting big stops. We might have a top ten team on our hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrashTalker92 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 We aren't surprise that the defense got better. I guess by week 4 is when Eli and the offense gel. Hopefully we don't rely on the d to score for us anymore to win a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueInCanada Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 As I said going into this year I seen a 7 to 9 win season, and I didnt think the Gints would make the pal-offs. With how the defense has played during the pre-season I got a lot more optimistic, especially with the state of the NFC East. To the coaches/FO and players credit the Oline has looked much improved this year when compared to last, however they havent faced a "mauling Dline" so far. Like you said though it's nice to finally see the defense hold teams to three and outs, instead of falling apart in one minute drives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 It is a process and everyone is getting comfortable with each other in game time. This team might not be ready for the playoffs but it is setting the foundation for the playoffs. They left a lot of points on the board out there today.

Mr. P Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 a mediocre defense last year and we win a ton more games, so this should be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigblue25 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 The defense held the Saints after the offense turned it over. Brees missed a few passes though and both teams went through a stretch of some ugly football. Overall it was a solid performance. Looking ahead to Redskins who we can make 3-0 and three games behind us. Hearing there's dissention in Washington with how bad Cousin's has played Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh "Cant cover right" Norman has shown to be another Albert Haynesworth type of signing. The team also gave Cousins 50 million guaranteed. And I really thought the 'Skins learned something over the last 10 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueInCanada Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 luckily for the skins he did not accept that offer and is just playing under the franchise tag Sorry meant to say 20 million guaranteed.

Bigblue25 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 They really dodged a bullet. Christ he looks awfulDon't tell Gruden that. I have never seen a coach make excuses for a QB as much as Gruden does for Cousins. It's stuff like Reporter: "Kirk threw picks today what do you attribute that too" Gruden: "The blades of grass on the field were too long, if the groundskeeper knew how to do his job Kirk would of had 500 yards" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightFire Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Kirk was playing scared for some reason. DJax was wide open half the game and he couldn't see him. From what I've read this was the issue last game. Maybe that $20 million good life is making him question getting smashed once a week. I think this is just a case of Derek Anderson where he played well over expectation for 1 year and now everyone is realising...ohhh right...Cousins.

Nas Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 I'm a defense first kind of guy.. I absolutely loved the nail biter yesterday... loved the clock management... and loved the aggressiveness of Eli and Co to seal the game... It's fucking sweet knowing your D won't shit the bed... Also loved seeing my man Keenan Robinson out there. All in all 2-0 has a sweet ring to it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
