How many Picks/Sacks do we get in Hall of Fame game

dizzle88 · 08-04-2012, 03:59 AM

I Can still remember our first preseason game under GW, and we came out flying, we had tons of sacks, forced fumbles, vilma had 2 picks

Now we have a new D and reports from camp are;

Its alot more fundamentally sound
They ask alot of the LB's
Spags will send 4 guys blitzing more often than not

My Question is;

Do you think we see something in the hall of fame game that shows our D getting the scheme together, i'm talking stats wise

How many picks/sacks/forced fumbles does everything think we get?

I would just be happy to see starters on the field...

I think Spags keeps it simple in this first game. Game one of the regular season after the players are more comfortable, it's on!

Maybe 2 picks, a gentlemens agreement in place. I would not want to show our hand on D any in pre-season, save it all for the regular season. Gregg Williams and the 49ers pre-season game in point:

Not expecting anything as this is usually the case. Hoping for no injuries and would like to see Joe Morgan take one to the house.

I believe it will be extremely basic. An attempt to make sure everyone understands the basic set, maybe a few stunts added. Probably just wants the players to see the schemes and for the coaches to see what they have and what they dont have.

Cosidering that our safeties both have stone hands, and we will most likely be playing with 3rd 4th and 5th string corners I don't see many intercptions. We could get a couple of sacks though.

ZERO!!!!!!!!!!

...

I'm just kidding... to be realistic, I think you guys could get 1 sack and maybe 3 interceptions in the game. If they start Kevin Kolb you're going to get 3 picks.

HOF game will be very vanilla....Much like the Hall of Fame game against the Steelers a couple of years ago

I know it's just preseason and all, but I REALLY hope it doesn't follow the format of the Steelers HOF game in 2007. If you remember, alot of the negative things that went on in that game tended to be problems during the REGULAR season as well.

I woudln't mind losing 21-24 or something, but that Steelers game was just ugly. Although not nearly as ugly as their season opener would get up being.
