The new defense can tackle

100

There's was definitely a better focus on that area, but they're dead wrong. I saw a few.

 

[Scotman]

Other than being injury free (I think), having ZERO missed tackles is the best thing out of this game.

 

[CWR]

He looks to be the real deal.

In the OP it literally is comparing last night to last years first preseason game.

Our preseason 2s and 3s have looked totally incompetent for many years. I’m not buying into any preseason hype but was encouraged by many things I saw on the field.

Most of the players from last year are still on the team genius. Obviously you were wrong but I know how most of you dudes are on here. Can never take an L.

To be fair, Bell and Houston are the only guys who really contributed against Seattle and played against the Rams last year. Of players with at least 3 tackles:

Seattle:
Curtis Robinson
Julius Wood
Caelen Carson
Justin Barron
James Houston
Markquese Bell
Reddy Steward
Malachi Lawrence
Langston Patterson
Kelvin Gilliam Jr.

LAR:
Zion Childress
Mike Smith Jr.
Alijah Clark
Darius Harris
Shemar James
Tyrus Wheat
Andrew Booth
Marist Liufau
James Houston
Markquese Bell
Kemon Hall

The scheme can definitely support better tackling but it's kind of silly to think talent has nothing to do with it.

I'm not going to continue to argue that tackling has to do with talent and not want to/coaching. Believe what you want.

Fine, but you are wrong that it's all the same players.

Take the L, as you say.

 

[tromofan]

Well, I always thought it should be a prerequisite for the job.

Quote where it said it was all the same players ma'am. I know women like to put words in people's mouth. Let's see the L with the quote you provide. I'll wait.

You said "most." It was not most.

You can call me a woman all you want. You are wrong lol

 

[johneric8]

The defense I saw Saturday night mostly played like their hair was on fire. You can really see the culture change, I hope it sticks.

 

[LouBrown]

I'll ask again ma'am. Where did I say it was all as you stated in your last post that gave me the L. I'll wait. My last time asking ma'am. (Lol)

Ok I'll rephrase because you're being pedantic.

You said "most" of the players are the same. That is not true. Take the L...You won't, but you are wrong.

 

[FVSTONE]

I've got to say, watching the first series of Saturday night's game I was pissed watching 21 making ridiculous penalties, and even if the penalties not happened Seattle didn't run into too much pressure taking the opening drive the distance for a big 7 points.

Oh a rephrase. Lol so you were wrong in how you quoted me, correct?

 

[LouBrown]

Not in my first response.

Sure, I was wrong to say "all" just speaking in shorthand when you started on some nonsense and deflecting away.

You refuse to admit that you are wrong in saying "most" of the players are the same.

 

[LouBrown]

Most of the players on defense were on the team last year. You bringing up qualifiers about 3 tackles doesn't change what I said. Sorry

Not the ones tackling, which is relevant when we are talking about missing tackles.

Calling someone a woman as an insult is the same as liking fireworks. Neanderthal behavior.
