I think the defense will get 4 or more sacks this week and it won’t be because we’re playing the Dolphins. It will be because Quinn is back which will take away some of the double teams against Dlaw.

I see your bold prediction and raise you one. We don't get a single sack, all game, and Quinn ends up being just another body. Just another guy, if you will.

Just throwing it out there.

They have given up 10 already in 2 games so I hope so.

And yes part of it will be because we are playing the Dolphins (see the 10 sacks in 2 games above) - though part of it will be Quinn as well.

Considering our sack leader is out for this game we shall see. Coming into the season I thought we looked really good on paper, not so much in games.

Crawford 1 sack (out)
Dlaw .5 sacks
LVE .5 sacks

The rest of our Dline has as many sacks as taco....only he didn't play.

Oh, most definitely, and with Rosen starting I'd be willing to be we're going to be in his face.

I was mainly just having fun, trying to play devil's advocate of sorts.
Wasn't dinging you. I like to see interceptions instead of sacks. Turnovers are my favorite.

7 sacks

Dlaw 1
Collins 1
Quinn 2
Hill 2, but fans will say he sucks because it was against the Dolphins and that their grandmother could do that
Jaylon Smith 1, forced fumble, recovery by Collins or Hill

I expect a few. We cut down the yardage allowed last week against a better team. So this week is a good time to really sharpen our teeth and gel. I think Quinn will want to show out against his old team and knows there system so he may be able to help.

Remember this is still a NFL team. If we take them light and play down to them like we have in the last it could be a game. Let’s see if we continue to put away teams we should.

I kinda feel sorry for Rosen. Starting a rookie with that line? Poor guy.

and it will hold NO WATER.. against that team , they already saw to shaky offenses and couldn't get it done, seeing the worst it should be EXPECTED but IMO wont matter.. cheap stats against bad teams is not impressive..

you saying 4 sacks against that team is going to lead you to believe all is well, fixed and give you confidence going forward?? not me..

those tests are coming this year for ALL including Dak and KM..

weve got 8 games to prove it

NO(now weakened)
GB
both philly games
Rams
NE

obviously MN and Chicago wont be easy so lets get to that part of the season and start bragging on the teams success..

I don't care what happens as long as I don't see 3DL and drop 8. Goodbye Rod

Just once Id like to see 54 and 55 walk up into the gap last second on each side of the center and cut them all loose. Come on Chris flex your muscles.

Hope he is in game shape. It usually takes a couple games to hit their stride. Our premier DE is still coming back from a late surgery (stupid) and we have a new toy that will be a difference maker down the road. I truly believe our defense will come together mid season and be a beast.
