Re: I like what I saw Monday Night ... somewhat
I think our biggest needs right now are on the OLine and not necessarily on defense. It appears as if the defense is too complicated for our DBs as there are multiple occasions during a game where the DBs are looking around trying to figure out who to cover. As for the run defense......well it would be nice if they were physical at the point of attack and not missing tackles.
Now back on to what our biggest need is, we need a steady, strong, smart Center to be the leader of the Oline. We do not have that right now. If we had a better OC Drew would be able to step up in the pocket and those pick sixes turn to big gains for the Offense. Maybe I'm way off base, I've only been able to listen to the last 3 games, but fix the Oline and the offense stays on the field longer, scores TDs in the redone and allows the defense to pin its ears back and make plays. |

D-Line is a mess, there isn't one person I would keep in the DT/NT position. Yes, I would like Hicks go. Cam and JR are good, not great, but good, their problem is no interior push making it harder for them to rush the passer. Letting Tom Johnson go and Foster getting hurt really impacted this defense. |

Mixing things up is key.
