I was wrong about the DL

I like Heath because he is a body snatcher...a hitter. He is not an All Pro...but he is solid and reliable and puts a little fear in offensive sizzle players. That's a good thing.
Agreed, I never really understood his status as a whipping boy around here, he's always been a good special teams player from the get go and is at the very least a solid backup for this team.

I have taken a lot of shots at the FO for the defensive line, but they are a legitimate force. David Irving and DeMarcus Lawrence are wrecking machines out there. Crawford might not be living up to his paycheck, but he is a baller. If we can get some consistent play from the LBs out there, this is a Super Bowl Caliber front 7. Lee is a beast, but we need Hitch, Jaylon, and Wilson to step up.

Mullet lad, I feel the same way about those 3.
But do not get carried away. This defensive unit, even with LB improvement is a long way from being Super Bowl material. Lee is a beast. But for how long? Our secondary is crap as well, so hold off on the superlatives for now, my good lad.

What an unbelievable pleasant surprise the DL has been this season. I really didn't see that one coming... I had more or less written of Dlaw.

There were a couple of us that tried to tell you guys this all off season.

I was one. I love this defense and they’re only going to get better. I’m not a big fan of the defensive scheme, but that’s another story.
