The IRS defense
 

Between injuries and poor play, the IRS defense may be the only option we have for defense.

Ingram, Robinson and Spiller - AND LOTS OF THEM - to keep the 11 players on the opposite side of the practice field off the playing field as much as possible when the games count.

need to cut some dead weight and we got plenty of it. These guys need reps.

Re: The IRS defense
 

I loved that.

brilliant.

Re: The IRS defense
 

Too bad Ingram looked like he always has in short yardage situation. Can't find the hole, can't move the ball an inch. Some of that lies on the OLine getting ZERO push but it also falls squarely on Ingram who must think bouncing the play outside on 3rd and 1 is sacrilege even when all 11 defenders collapse on the inside.

Re: The IRS defense
 

He ran the ball 4 times in a preseason game. You should hold off judgement for a bit.

Re: The IRS defense
 

It's better than the POS defense we put on the field.

Re: The IRS defense
 

That in no way is Ingram's fault, our starters on the O line got absolutely man handled. The lineman were getting pushed 3 yards into the backfield and he had nowhere to go.

In the words of the immortals and I quote..."Doh" :doh:

Re: The IRS defense
 

More like IR defense. For IRS we need Spiller to stay healthy. Dude always has minor injuries that make him "just another guy" on the filed.

Re: The IRS defense
 

Agree, Mark looked fine

Re: The IRS defense
 

In the Baltimore game we had...

SIX new starters on defense (3 were rookies).

FIVE new starters on Offense, and we didn't play Brees or Colston.

Re: The IRS defense
 

We were beaten badly in the trenches.

Big John must step up his game. Edabali was off, Ellerbe is a guy that gets injured easily & Kakahi is learning so he will take some time but overall the game was lost in the trenches early on. I would like to see Hicks play next week for at least a series or two.

Yikes spiller already falling apart

Re: The IRS defense
 

The way Robinson looked running, and more surprisingly, catching the ball out of the backfield, I have zero concerns about running back. Couple that with the speed and vision Marcus Murphy is showing me I'm extremely excited about that position. I thought Murphy would be the odd man out. Boy was I wrong. That kid is the return man we've been missing since the days of Reggie Bush and the Beerman.

Re: The IRS defense
 

IRS? Pfft Spiller is already hurt. Gonna be a long season my friends.

Re: The IRS defense
 

Yes now the IR defense. That doesn't bode well - IR - as in injured reserve

Re: The IRS defense
 

If your worried about the new and improved O line. Wait till you get a load of the Defense. I would be real surprised if RR makes it to the halfway point in the season.
