Sam Williams and Micah Parsons get the game balls

[BAT]

Yep, we have a great defense

Who had the 5th sack?

Sam - 2
Parsons - 1
Armstrong - 1
Wilson - 1

Armstrong knocked Parsons away from another sack as well.

Williams is going to be every bit as good. He’s another phenomenal player I don’t know how we have both of them on the same team

Whirlwin---how about we see Doomsday #4 or #3 whichever it is?....but when we shore up our run defense a little better.....we will be even more lethal

He stripped the ball, but does that count as a sack if the QB doesn't hit the ground?

Stripping the ball from a QB is a strip sack. Since it has become almost illegal to hit the QB it might be a preferred move.

Any passing play where the qb loses yardage is a sack. Whether they run out of bounds or fumble the football.

Not bad for a 2nd round pick. I've seen some guys around here who didn't like that pick.

Sammy and Dorance are a heck of a 2nd team edge rush off the bench behind DLaw + Parsons

We have the deepest DE/OLB (Edge) rush in the NFL league. Fowler is our 5th best edge rusher. Tarell Basham, when he comes back, is 6th. He was 2nd for a large chunk of last year with DLaw out.

Any passing play where the qb loses yardage is a sack. Whether they run out of bounds or fumble the football.

But not if it's a legs guy like Lamar or Jalen Hurts or Vick because typically the scorer will say it's a read option.

Micah should get a 2nd sack. He hit him and he fell a yard later. That counts as a tackle.

DLaw touched him in between

Good point, I didn't think about the fumble aspect.

 

[TheHerd]

I saw this done twice at a high school game Friday night, neither drew a flag

But in this league you never know. Obviously can’t do that against a QB.

 

[Macnalty]

You can literally see Williams game growing each week. That wasnt a bad O Line they faced today.

I agree this was a reasonable offense. The horrible Detroit defense should give us some pause as to how we failed to dominate.

That's why I said passing play. If it's seen as a run play that loses yardage - no sack.

Williams was outstanding today.

Needs to cool it with the suplexes though lol

I thought we dodged a bullet on that.

Oof, I miscounted.

I thought Cowboys had 6 sacks total.

The Cowboys finally hit on a second round pick. Sam Williams is a beast.

Replying to my own post, I forgot Diggs was a 2nd round pick too. My bad.

i liked his play today

Why was that not a sack? He fell behind the line of scrimmage from contact with Parsons.

Bland will replace Lewis at slot corner.

Yes, Bland is the backup Nickel CB.

Joseph is the backup outside CB.

Exactly. The last may person to touch yiu before you go down gets the tackle.

 

[aikemirv]

I believe that’s a no

I thought it was a sack when
They forced a fumble
