Saints Defense (what did I just watch)

Rugby Saint II · 11-10-2020, 04:03 PM

Was this the game where DA dials back the playbook so our players can play faster? We had good coverage in the secondary last night and almost no flags to extend drives. Things are looking up folks!

Guy has quietly been balling out.

Dont get me wrong Trey is nice, I still dont believe he's a full time DE. I like 4-3 DEs to be be a force against the run, maintain gap control, pass deflection, force offenses to scheme opposite of you.....That position is more than just sacks thats Why Cam has been so valuable to the Saints, he's waaay more than a pass rusher.

Cam and Davenport are giving Trey the ability to get the bling but they deserve just as much credit or more.

Trey is trending to reach at least 10, 11 SACKS for 2020. With that production, I'll be surprised if a few teams don't view him as a quality STARTING DE and throw serious money his way in Free Agency. He just won't get it from the Saints.

Good for Trey though

. He's played extremely well this season.

If he goes elsewhere I hope he gets it. Although, I really think he is a product of the system. He is all motor but doesn't have the over-the-top moves and techniques as do other top DE's. What he does have is a freer lane to the QB than most others with the contributing pressure.

Oh, and by all means YES, he has played extremely well. There's something to be said about a player that takes advantage of their opportunities.

T-Rex has earned a nice second contract through hard work. I don't know if it will be with us but I hope so. I love a guy with a non stop motor that never stops hustling.
