Yup, and if it’s PA or turns into a pass one of the Blitzers muddles their rush and spies Allen. Brady has no real answer for it.

Can’t blame Bishop there

Since when has Tre been one of the most reliable tacklers on the team.

Does Walker lead the team in passes defended?

It’s always QB and trenches first and foremost. If a team is bad at two out of three — QB, OL, DL — they generally top out at a .500 record. When a team is good in all three they’re generally a playoff team regardless of the strength of other position groups. With regards to value at other positions…. Fill in the best talent that you can find because guys like Cook, Gibbs, Jefferson, Chase, etc don’t grow on trees. Get the trenches right, find a QB, get a few playmakers and most competent coordinators should be able to make something positive happen.

McDermott is a good enough play caller to work around some of these issues. However, McD is still going to get caught from time to time with the wrong call solely because of available talent. You can manufacture pressure, run stops, etc, but you have to gamble a bit to pull it off.

Achilles injury coming up

The fun play is going to come from him jumping an out route.

Bishop seems to be showing up with Poyer next to him instead of Rapp.

Watching that Packers/Steelers game last night was a bit eye opening with regards to this…. It seemed like LeFleur had an answer schemed up for almost everything the Steelers threw at them.

They just brought him back from IR after Havrisik was doing well…. They might just IR him again or cut him.

Not with the way the referees call penalties. A few games aside I haven’t really paid attention to Parsons while he was in Dallas. I’ve seen four GB games this year and it seems like the refs haven’t been calling blatant/flagrant holding on him or Gary since week one — not arm bar stuff, but legit headlock from behind holding. Honestly feels like Oline penalties have been selective all year for most teams though. Holding, false starts, illegal cut blocks, etc seem to be more subjective than normal this year.

I understand that it’s a passing league, but I will never understand only playing small faster LBers without dominant DTs that can keep them free to flow…. or at least a solid run stuffing 1T.

If Wade Phillips had JA17 instead of Flutie/Johnson he’d likely had several SB visits and at least one win.

He’s a rookie and he came into the season with a back injury which at his size could be aggravated with too much of a workload too quickly.
