How new is defense facing Giants

[glimmerman]

Just wondering how many of our Defensive starters are playing the giants for the first time.

D-Law is out, Jaylon is gone. Most starting secondary is new other than Brown. Gregory has been around but the starters on the D-Line Sunday. And LVE on LB. We are getting players back also.

Who is old and who is new.

Quinn and his scheme are new....that's all that matters.

Just wondering the players. A lot of these players are new.

Osa and Parsons are new of course as rookies. Same with Cox if he starts.

Kerse and Kazee are new.

Diggs and Isn’t there another CB coming back that is supposed to take Browns job. Golston. Just keep thinking of more and more.

I would say most of our defensive players are new. To add what JJHLH1 posted, Neal is starting I think, along with Urban and Diggs. That's more than half the starters I think.

Kelvin Joseph is who I think you're talking about. He won't be available for this game.

But getting close. This is a young group playing well.

That is not really the point. It's about knowing their players. If we know what their interior OL plays like then we have the advantage because they have never played against Osa. Same with Gholston Parsons Gregory or whoever else may fall into that category.

Not even that. Was just wondering and showing how young this Defense is and how well they are playing as a young team.
