I knew we were going to be a run first team. Winston is doing a pretty good job of managing the game and our defense is so much fun to watch that I think they can cary an average team to the playoffs and maybe even deeper....like all the way!

I love how this defense imposes their will on offenses. Kinda gives me a woody, been wanting a good defense for years. Now, we got an elite defense and when the offense gets on track. We are gonna roll

And we're doing it with a bunch of nobodies on the D-line. Sweet!

Truth. So is their success based on Scheme, Technique, Chemistry, or Instinct/Football IQ?

I think we’ve scouted really well at that position over the last several years.

Yes.

We have two more games coming up the Giants & Washington these are good teams for us to get the Offense worked out.
After that comes the Seahawks and Bucs which both will be tough games.
Still can't figure out how we took apart the Pack, guess we caught them snoozing.

Watching live I was actually pleased with Winston’s play. It was a packed, loud stadium. Once they got a 2 score lead you could tell he was determined not to force a bad throw and turn the ball over. He’s got a 3.5 to 1 TD to Int ratio so far. That’s not bad at all. Game number 2 Carolina was ready and stuffed the O line and held Kamara in check (let’s not forget the travel/Ida/COVID Coach issues that week). They finally get a true home game against a struggling Giants team with a chance to go 3-1 with healthy players hopefully returning soon.
