Good assessment Czar!

I'm looking forward to the matchups .. specifically Cooper/Breaux & PJ/Crabtree. I think Fairley & Kruger will be difference makers out of the gate.

Damn, Em! You get better every year! I think you nailed it all. You mentioned worrying about continuity with Evans stepping in. Personally, I think he may be just as comfortable snuggling up to Strief's left shoulder as his is with his own wife's.

I'll have to catch the entire thing later when I have a minute, but right off the bat, I agree with a lot, great job!

And especially the communication with our corners, I've noticed a troubling trend with our guys having problems with little bunch/cluster WR formations. Teams have hurt us many times with these because our guys have had trouble with the decisions that occur there.

I'd wonder if a big, sturdy jam up at the line would disrupt these little rubs, at least long enough to pressure Carr into a bad decision.

A lot of that came with Ryan's defensive scheme. So much of it was changing of responsibility based upon the offense at the snap. It leads to lots of confusion. It has happened everywhere he has coached after the first season when he fully implemented his scheme. The first year striped down version has always worked much better.

I'd like to see Allen dial up the occasional blitz against the Raiders & I'm also looking forward to watching this defense (specifically the trenches) in 2016. If we can consistently throw Carr off his timing with hurries, he could be in trouble.

The dome will be rocking :drummer: !

Nice assessment

Hell of an assessment. Felt like I was back in the locker room listening to a coach break something down.
