Twitter: Full Defensive Lineup Finally Available

[CowboyRoy]

I think it’s pretty clear that JKearse has earned the depth chart starting spot. But if you look at snap counts all 4 safeties play, and Wilson gets a ton of snaps when he’s healthy. But in terms of the starter when both are healthy it’s been Kearse and for good reason.

They wanted Hill and Gallimore to start at DT and if Gallimore hadn’t gotten hurt he’d have started over Urban or Hill depending on formation. Remember, Urban didn’t even start week 1 as Carlos Watkins has consistently been above him on the depth chart. Look back at the depth chart from week 1 you’ll see Watkins ahead of Urban. Depending on formation it was him or Gallimore/Hill they originally planned for the DT spots. Urban was a depth/base runs defense guy,

I’m fairly sure the lineup indicated in the tweet would’ve been the starting lineup had everyone been healthy including Hill.

Still need Wilson as that thumper SS in the 3 safety formations that we use a lot of.

I just hope they aren't rushing anyone back. I've heard a lot of impatient fans wanting Gregory and Gallimore back several weeks ago. That's a result of fans thinking it's about what they want rather than about the player's health.

Excited to see how the starters plus depth shape this defense. Could be a really stout group that also forces turnovers. If the O is scoring we’ll be putting the opposing teams in a stressful position. The more we have opponents being 1-dimensional and passing the better we’ll play defensively.

Holy Chit! The Calvary are coming to save the game. D wins Champs.

Need D. Wilson back so Kearse can replace LVE on most downs.

Neville Gallimore is a 3Tech tho..hasn't shown himself to be a NT and wasn't drafted to be. Everything else looks about right.

Is Micah a 3 tech or a 1 tech . . . or is he a DE?
. . . asking for a frien

 

[cowboyec]

now you'll see a magic show.
BAD THINGS MAN

 

[CowboyManDan]

Kazee and LVE are the weak links but should be a solid defense.

Agreed. I think Wilson and Neal are better when healthy.

He's a bad mutha(shut your mouth). Tell him where to go...he'll get the job done, or try his best.

He should be back in no time! Definitely a strong piece in the back end.

yes sir

 

[Redline360]

Can we trade LVE for some cotton candy please

 

[Coogiguy03]

This is a great thing, but I'm sure a negative Nancy will chime in soon.......

What if we don't get to the QB

And Hill

Uh, come on Joe, Gallimore has been out all season for a hyper-extended elbow that should have healed after 4-6 weeks at the most. Gregory has been out 4 weeks which should be plenty of time to heal from a pulled calf muscle.

 

[DallasDW00ds0n]

I’d rather try someone off the street than LVE

 

[JoeyBoy718]

Replace Kazee with Wilson and LVE with anybody, and we’re good.

Micah is whatever he wants to be.

They play two 3techs in passing situations.
