Re: Are the young bloods on d really better?
All through the game I kept asking myself if we were playing good or if the Bears and Cutler were just that bad. But I kept noticing the hustle by players, chasing down plays, fighting to shed blocks and just winning one on one match ups. That has been missing so much on our defense this year.
I fully agree if we play with that same effort and heart at home versus Atlanta they don't stand a chance. But with how inconsistent we are week to week it is shaky confidence. I really want it to continue though. |

The young bloods are at least showing signs of fire.

Re: Are the young bloods on d really better?
It was a good game for them to start and get some playing time vs an ailing O.
That Fredrick guy was a good one. I love the idea... look if you don't do your job we will put someone else in your spot. |

Loved the idea of trying out Humber as OLB. Trying something finally, at least. Our secondary had 3 starters who weren't even on the team 3 weeks or so ago? |

Re: Are the young bloods on d really better?
If Payton and Loomis really want to "fix" things, they'd better re-examine how they didn't select for even the practice squad a player who so obviously flashed in pre-season that he was a favorite. A big miss. Underscored by a future need to sign him off the Vikes' PS....and then START him.
