I'm tied with the team lead in sacks tonight


Recommended Posts

...which is exactly 0.

I know it's just the first preseason game. I know Ray Edwards isn't playing.

But I guess after all the emphasis placed on our lack of pass rush during the offseason, I was just hoping somebody would step up. I mean, it's preseason. If you're ever gonna just sell-out and bring the house to get to the QB, now is the time. (I'm looking at you Van Gorder)

Overall, the 1st team offense and defense looked solid though. Here's hoping we turn into a defense that punishes the QB on the regular.

ok :huh:

I assume the patronizing picture had to do with the fact that defensive coordinators do not run exotic defenses in the preseason. At least not with the 1st team.

The only team I have seen that have been bringing the house in preseason are the Saints, and there is really no point. You don't need exotic defenses to see if a guy can get his head around on a pass or wrap up a runner, or stay in their lane/zone.

Lets wait til week one to criticize the lack of stats.

Didn't they force 2 or 3 picks?

SF has some kick-in OL, I am Impressed, not!

Our 5th string DEs played the whole game

You let Chad Henne throw a TD to a unbelieveably wide open WR. No Brandon Marshal, No Reggie Bush. Green Bay found some holes.. a lot bigger than what Jason David had for us. I wouldnt knock any achievement ;) no matter the stipulations.

solid post partner. one thing is for certain, I have no problem getting into regular season HATE mode for the sorry a$$ saints. I hate every dam one of them including that fata$$ Dcoordinator. I hope he impressed himself tonight... I hope we clean thier clocks twice this year. The aints team picture is listed under the term EGOMANIACS....

Stephens and Matthews each had a sack. Must've been a slow night at Kroger for you to only fill 2 bags.

I made this post in the third quarter when we had no sacks.

But I do give you credit for a good joke. +1

Still doesn't change the fact I was hoping to see somebody get to the qb.

Excuse me if I don't necessarily have faith in Van Gorder to all of a sudden flip the switch when the regular season starts.

I figured as much.

We had decent pressure and forced a couple picks. Edwards will be a big help too. I'm much more worried about Nickel Back. Our's suck almost as much as the band does.
