Have we improved the pass rush?

If the secondary has improved the pass rush will get better by default..the only way I see improvement happens there. There is no one that is going to make the team appreciably better up front but on the backend if things improve with the influx of young talent and exodus of scrubs...it might be the only hope for the pass rush this year. The suspensions are going to hurt.

Ah. so the only way we improve the pass rush is if the secondary improves. With a 2nd round and 3rd round rookie and a scrub from Philly that is suspended correct?

Well at least we agree the pass rush will be hard pressed to improve this year.

Bottom line...

I think by the end of the season we'll be thinking that this is the best defense the Cowboys have had since 2009.

Now will it be good enough?

Don't know.

But it'll be better than what we've seen in several seasons.
I agree:starspin:

Roy, I'm not even going to waste my time because you love playing the negative game. If someone handed you a gold bar you complain about it being too heavy.

If you were more even-handed about things would be one thing... But in your world it's all negative all the time.

No thanks.

IF someone wanted to talk about the offense I would be all smiles. But listening to you guys talk year in and year out about how the defense is going to miraculously be all world is getting increasingly annoying. Any FA scrub that comes in here is the answer. Any rookie is the answer. And suspension we will be fine once they come back. Irvin was the new craze until he got suspended, now he wont matter. Yada yada yada.

Go ahead, put a good argument why the pass rush will improve without laughing at yourself. Just accept facts. We didnt solve the pass rush this year. Its IMPOSSIBLE to solve it in one year. And when you continue to whiff on guys like Gregory, Lawrence, ect...ect.... it makes it even harder. Taco is the new reach. I see him as a LDE. Could be solid down the line. The Tapper hope is even more of a long shot. We helped the secondary, but probably wont see it THIS year.

We arent winning the SB this year, just forget it. Defense isnt good enough. But we can improve and do some damage. Do yourself a favor and accept the team for what it is. Incredible offense, average at best defense, and a bad head coach. That wont win you many championships.

Atlanta, that already had a 15 sack 2nd year DE picked another one in the first round. The guy WE wanted. Now that is how you solve a pass rush. Not by drafting RB's with the 4th pick in the draft.
