Defense after 4 Games

[jazzcat22]

Each game it seemed they improved a little bit in different areas.

Yesterday, in the 2nd half was much better. Run defense seems it improved overall this year. With the exception of the QB's running all over us. But they did kept Stroud in check a little better.

Pass defense still an issue. Still too many wide open receivers. Too many long plays downfield. And yesterday, there was too many near misses as well. Even though a few may have been caused by some finally much needed pressure. But I can't say that for sure.
Maybe someone with All 22 Access can take a look.

Still giving up too many points though.
TB & GB could help in not giving up that many points as both teams have not looked all that great. But you never know. And I still do not trust this defense yet.

But I feel some very slight encouragement. As I said, each week something has improved a little. And getting JPJ and getting some injured players back will only help.

This is the thread I was looking for. They’re getting better. It’s slow, but it’s there.

They can stop the rush, just need to stop the passing game. I think we’re one legitimate pass rusher away from having a defense that can allow our offense to make the games unreachable for opposing offenses.

Yes.
But is that pass rusher on the team and needs to emerge.
Need to see the next 2 or 3 games.
Gary and Q. Williams looked much better yesterday.

It’s still really early in the season,
The next three primetime games,
On the world stage,
If Ravel can come back to the corner and bland go back to the nickel
Caleb Downs, that changes where he plays because he doesn’t have to help BLAND
And Joey Porter Junior he should be solid on his side
It’s the cliché. Does the front four help the back end?
Or does the back end, help the front?

We’re pretty balanced, that doesn’t mean we’re great on the back and front
I’m just saying we’re equally talented, we need each other
I’m having fun ,and liking what I’m seeing.
I’m disappointed about Baltimore still, because I know we could’ve won that game
But I think Coach took what he learned, and used it against Houston, we played to win, not scared

Did LT Overton and Hammer have a good game

Cowboys have scored 122 points
Buffalo has scored the best at 127 points

But we have also allowed over 100 points scored
So it’s still about the defense
If we can get Ravel, healthy, and bland back to the nickel, that’s going to help
Then we can move Caleb around again
