Re: 92 Passing Yards Allowed and 8 Sacks

I've wanted to see energy like that for a long while from the defense, obviously it's preseason but the early signs are encouraging.

Pressure upfront was decent, they elimated any gaps when the Chargers tried to run the ball and more importantly, they get 2 or 3 players tackling the ball carrier at once.

Linebackers, Te'o and Klein looked like a good tandem, they swarmed to the ball and hit hard when they got there.
Klein pretty much caused the play that resulted in Okafor's sack, what a hit by the way!

Lattimore got juked badly but I'm not concerned, just needs to keep his feet set when he's squaring up and shuffle rather than turn his body early, can easily be corrected and I don't think he allowed a catch all game? Can anyone confirm?

Kamara, nothing more needs to be said.

Tommy Lee Lewis with an outstanding sideline grab.

All in All, the stats posted earlier about 2015 and 2016 preseason versus this one do not lie, we definitely looked more fundamentally sound.
