Defense is showing up

[Galian Beast]

The defense is showing up and we haven't seen anything yet.

Everyone needs to put the doom and gloom away for a while. Our next two games are against the Falcons and Saints, and these are still two games that we should win.

After that the defense is going to get even better with the additions of McClain, Gregory, and Hardy. I think this will be a top 5 defense.

After two games they're ranked:
3rd in yards per game and 6th in points allowed per game (heavily skewed by mistakes from the offense).

This defense can buy us enough time to get our players back on offense, this can and still will be our year. Obviously not what we wanted, but hope is not lost.

I thought Mincey and Lawrence were great yesterday. The interior of the Eagles OL really struggled with the quickness of guys like Crawford and even Coleman.

And it's obvious that this is an entire different D when Lee is on the field. If you get a focused McClain playing alongside him in a few games and then you get Hardy and Gregoy back, this could be a dominating front seven.

Yes the idea of getting Hardy, Gregory and McClain back and the current D staying healthy and continuing to improve.

I just hope our offense or lack of offense with Tony out, does not wear the defense out. Hopefully they will put the run as the import again as it seemed like we were starting to go back to a pass happy offense.
