  1. Not to pick on you, but I wish people would qualify these statements with "against the Patriots". Correct me if I'm wrong, but did our run defense cost us any other losses?

    Sure, we were in the bottom half of the league on run defense (18th), we were gouged many times against the run.  I know it was the worst against NE but we let several teams pile on the rushing yards last year.  

     

    We gave up 127 against the Eagles, 136 against Houston, 117 against Pittsburgh, 137 against Houston (Game 2), 127 against Dallas, 142 against Tennessee, 115 against Cleveland   

     

    Not to pick on you but it was not very good last year against most of the teams we played, of the 16 games we played in 10 of them we allowed more than 100 yards. That is not good and I sure wouldn't say only NE ran over us

  2. I would be happy to see us in the top 12 against the run, THAT would be a difference maker 

     

    We gave up an average of 4.3 ypc and that is a good reason why we suffered at times last year

     

    If we could get that down 3.8 it would mean a great deal.  1/2 of a year reduction on every carry would put us in the top 10 so if we are more stout along the line and dont get pushed around that is very possible with the front 7 we have 

  3. Geathers, has the ability and the strength to cover tight ends so as mentioned earlier this is situational football.

     

    We need someone that hit these tight ends hard and a 6'2 210 Safety might be a stop gap against the better tight ends this season

     

    Geathers is listed as a mediocre tackler but working with professional coaches may help him with that

  4. But what do you mean by "locker room material"? All this is is his own form of motivation. This won't, at least it shouldn't, bug other players or teams. They have themselves to worry about.

    So you don't think this will pump up other NFL receivers when they play against him this season.

     

    On this very site we get on opposing players for making such declarations.  So that is what I meant by Locker Room Material AKA bulletin board material.  

     

    Lets just move on,  GO Colts!

  5. Jamal Anderson said 31 teams passed him up too. He was taken in the 7th round so his own team, the Falcons passed on him 6 times.

     

    This talk means nothing and all it does is promote locker room material for our opponents.  How about playing in the NFL before you boast. I am all for a player with swagger but not one that hasn't seen the field yet

  6. So what!  This fear of the Patriots plays right into their fans and media hands,  Until they won last year by Seattle being stupid they haven't won ANYTHING since we beat them in 06'

     

     I am glad he is playing, what better way to get over on them than to beat them with Brady!

  7. WOW, I just wished she would have spend a little time about his faith, it seems like she just edited it out.  Regardless, Joseph is a great guy and I wish nothing but the best from him.

     

    God bless you 29 (Thank you for that TD that sent us to the Superbowl)
