Re: Our Defense
 
Like I said 2 games is not enough time to say the defense will not improve...

And with that said I'm done with this thread

We have a weak set of 4 down linemen. Watch the game tonight with San Fran. Their front 4 are lean, tall and evasive. 2 of our front 4 are fat and too slow.

If we got pressure up front no one would care about the DB's because they would not be depended on like they are now play after play.

Agreed, and no scheme is going to change that. I think we're in for a long year

Look, I'm trying to conceive of the fastest way we can rebuild our defense to suit Spags defensive style. If we acquire 2 vet d-linemen this offseason we would have improved this team overall by a lot. Just look at the Giants, Spags defensive scheme depends on 4 strong down linemen, period.

If we went out and blew our wad on DB's... heck if we had Charles Woodsen and Dion Sanders in their prime back there, we would not improve this D as much.

Right now our DB's are stopping runs AND covering passes all over the field which means we're not stopping offenses at the at the line of scrimmage, nor are we getting penetration on opposing QB's. This problem goes back to BEFORE Gregg Williams with similar personnel. Just watch the game on tv tonight, the 49ers' DB's are NOT involved on every single play like the Saints. That's because they attack at the line of scrimmage.

We do need to beef up the DB's, but first things first - acquire some d-linemen that can effectively attack the line of scrimmage.

We may already have a couple of the personnel you are referring to but since we have over paid under achievers on the line, we will never really know.

I only saw the game on Red Zone...can you tell me what you mean by this?

I mean, the pick 6 Drew threw at the 10 or whatever is obvious but how else did the offense give away 14 points?

Thanks!

Halo that's fine for next year but I'm wanting to see them do something this year. As Jerry jones said the window of oppurtunuity is closing. I certainly don't have the answer but that's why they pay Spuds.

1.I Partially Agree....San Francisco Has Arguably The Best Linebacking Corps In Football So It Doesnt Just Stop At The D Line
2.If You Notice We Always Try To Find The Next Big Thing At The D Lineman Postition Every Year...But We Never Look For A Safety...Yea You See Our DB's Making Tackles And Its Because They Arent Stopping The Passes Made On Them....
3. At A Fix Things Now Standpoint I Think We Need To Put Vilma On IR And Look For A Vet At LB and Or DL To Become A Leader Of This Defense While Its Still Early
