DL rotation is stale, Basham & Golston are overrated

[CWR]

Trash garbage sacks when the opposing offense is down by 25 pts is nothing to brag about.

I don't remember bragging, but ok.

Consider the source......... Complete HACK.

5 yards a carry.

[CWR]

Both of Patriots RBs averaged above 4 yards a carry. Both of them are overrated and taking meaningful snaps away from players than can actually play.

What are you suggesting big fella?

More rotation of Gregory , Armstrong & Anae.
Armstrong is healthy to play but coaches are forcing the other two sub par players to play .

Thanks to the offense & Diggs.

• We have 11 sacks, which is ok, but that ranks us 23rd. We could really use an improvement there.

Basham isn't rated and Golston is a rookie with zero hype. The team is winning and DLaw is coming back, so DE position is ok..not great but ok.

Both players are backups, with Golston possibly developing into more than that. Basham wasn't brought in here to start. He was brought in to be the third or fourth man in the rotation. Nothing was really expected of Golston this year. Injuries have forced both to step up. No one should be expecting them to be Lawrence or Gregory.

Not directing that at you. Just thought I'd piggyback on what you are saying.

bull.

Why Anae? What exactly has he done to merit playing time? Don't you think if the coaches thought he was better than a rookie like Golston that they would be playing him. Armstrong has been out or he would be part of the rotation, but Anae just appears to not have proven he should be ahead of Basham and Golston.

So be it.......a W is a W..

 

[Sydla]

So you make a post about how this sucks but offer no solution?

His solution is to play Anae more who he basically thinks is a stud DE that we are misusing.

That's his "solution".

 

[Manwiththeplan]

I heard Anae had 9 sacks at halftime.

he compares favorably to Lawrence Taylor

 

[TwoCentPlain]

I heard Anae had 9 sacks at halftime.

I forget. Is Anae the one better than the Rams' Donald?

 

[Whyjerry]

How is it possible that a rookie mid round pick is overrated?

Yea your point isn’t valid they are overrated.

I'd like to see more Armstrong. On the fence with Anea, but I have to say these coaches don't appear stuck in their ways. They don't play guys based on contract or status within the team. I have a lot more confidence than years past. They are making better decisions based on practice and game film.

WHO overrated them?

Where you goin', dude?

Haters will hate, but I think this D gonna take a step forward when we get Dlaw back, especially if Gilmore lives up to the preseason hype and Joseph can play.

"haters gonna hate" is such a lazy and dismissive and misguided phrase

 

[Floatyworm]

If we were to add Brockers like the rumors suggest...I would bet our rotation would look a lot better...with the addition of Gillmore.

Whatever you say. He's a really good DE and he will make the team better, despite the cry babies on here.
