I know it's a rotation and all the guys are going to play.. but from my eyes and from the numbers Hill and Osa were the only DTs who did anything on Sunday. Gallimore and Bohanna were completely invisible. Hill and Osa both had TFLs and QB hits. When the QB you're getting hits on is named Tom Brady one tends to take notice. Bohanna and Gallimore both had "assists." It will be interesting to see how the rotation evolves going forward because at this point it looks like Osa and Hill are our two best interior d-linemen. Osa played the most snaps (36) while Hill played the least (19.) Let's see what happens this Sunday.

If you didn't watch the film, go back and watch it.

Osa was great, yes. Hill...not so much. Made a couple of good plays but did a lot of flailing.

Q was VERY good. I believe, by my count, he was in on 5 or 6 tackles. I haven't the foggiest why he only got credited with two.

I was very happy with how Q played.

Hill had two solo tackles one for loss and a QB knockdown in 19 snaps. He also should have drawn a rather obvious holding on one of Fournette's long runs because the center pretty much took his jersey completely off or I think Hill makes the tackle for a 2 yard gain. I will go back and rewatch the game at some point to confirm what I thought I saw but my stomach still has not recovered from that putrid performance by the offense.. Maybe I'll just FF through our offensive plays and try to just judge the defense.

New prescription maybe?

Yes, he had a nice play where he held up a double team and dropped the RB for a 2 yard loss. It was a very good play.

He knocked down the QB, if memory serves, where he didn't have to do much.

I just saw a lot of the same from him, a lot of blocker magnet, flailing arms, hitting the ground diving with no hope of actually tackling. I am rough on him, admittedly, but I just don't see it with him.

Watch Q, i was impressed.

Nah, i'm telling you, Q was hosed by the scoring. He was involved in a bunch of tackles, stood the point of attack, drew doubles, even rushed a couple of times on 3rd down.
Uh no!

Watkins is definitely better at penetration, but he sucks at taking up double teams without giving up ground. Watkins and Bohanna have different roles.
Bohanna still looks slow and underpowered for a man of his size to me. Maybe haven’t washed the shock of how bad he was last season away just yet!

I hear you. If I had his size, I would be creating havoc inside nonstop and make it so hard to stop me.
