When SP fired Spags, I actually felt relief.
If our defense can limit "big plays" to just every other week, it would be a huge improvement.

what never helped Spags defense is the fact that it never complimented the offense and vis versa. I was worried about Spags defense because it was so much like Gary Gibbs defense, the end result was............it was exactly like Gibbs defense which resulted in a 8-8 and 7-9 season.

When Rob Ryan came in, big part of his defense was to compliment the offense and vis versa. It worked today.

I dunno about Spags, I thought he was an elite DC, perhaps hes nothing more than a smoke and mirror guy that is no better than Gibbs.

Happy for our guys on D. No doubt about it. Happy for Ryan who's looking for redemption too.

It was great to win - even better to have the D play well and to end it the way they did.

Very proud for our D. What a great place to start!

Our defense played great. I was annoyed with our offense in having to settle for so many field goals. But we got the win and now we move on to the completely demoralized Buccaneers. LOL!

I was too worried about defense to worry about Hartley. Turns out I didn't need to sweat either.

Preseason is like going over a recipe for weeks... You dont know how the cake will turn out until you cook one in your oven with your ingredients.


Week 1 Cake made... Now we can start working on turnovers :)

Let's narrow the focus of this thread down a bit.

Kenny Vaccaro beat the Atlanta Falcons with ONE FINGER.

LOL

Did anyone else get this? I am not sure if, coming from England, this means the same thing.
