IRVING, Texas – Anthony Spencer believes he could rush the passer if he had to today.

But the defensive end’s still being eased in as he rehabs from microfracture knee surgery, and he hopes to start working into individual drills with the team within the next couple weeks.

“I feel really good,” Spencer said. “I’m in good shape. I don’t get tired when I’m doing the drills that I’ve been doing.”

“I think we’re going to surprise a lot of people,” Spencer said. “That’s what I believe. I believe that this defense is going to surprise a lot of people in the things that we’re going to be able to do and that we are going to do. I’m looking forward to getting back out there and being a part of this defense.”

Not going to lie - in Madden 15 I dominate on defense with everyone healthy . Not sure if that means anything for the real season....

I hope you're right, Spence!

 

[MichaelWinicki]

I think Spencer is going to be productive.

 

[lostar2009]

Didn't someone say the same thing last year? ??? Lol.

 

[Moderately_Askew]

I like it, Spencer! I have feeling you are going to be proven right.

He needs to be. There aren't a lot of edge options besides him at this point. Hopefully Lawrence doesn't have any set backs, and will be healthy enough to provide some push come Week 10 or so.

Everyone except the trainer!

 

[TwentyOne]

the question for me is what kind of performance is needed to surprise people?

Every one thinks this defense will shatter the all time low for defences in all aspects.
So to me if they'd still be the 32 ranked defense but do not break all negative records that would be considered a surprise. - questionmark.

IDK...

 

[GimmeTheBall!]

So, where you been, Spence?
I guess now that you are back, we are back in bidness, yes?
Good to half you back, Spence. Now shuddup and get on the field and let's see if you can stay on it.

Players always feel this way. And they should.

I will say, Church sounds pretty confident, too.

Want to get in before someone says, "Talk is cheap, show me on the field." Because optimism due to player enthusiasm is a crime.

LOL!

Yeah, but it's better than Spencer saying "You know my knee starts giving me problems after about 30 minutes of working out. I don't think I'll be ready until the end of the season."

Didn't someone say the same thing last year? ??? Lol.

I think he said the exact same thing, lol.

unfortunately it doesn't.
but here's to a 16-0 madden season

"With everyone healthy" I could see this defense being improved over last year. It's hard to believe that everyone will be healthy though, setbacks and incomplete recoveries seems more likely, but some good luck could change all that!

If they eliminate some communication problems that filled last season's defense (think of the 1st Giant game) that may eliminate a few big plays anyway.

They say that every year. Last year it was the secret sauce. lol

 

[dstovall5]

I don't know if this is a good thing or bad thing, does he mean we'll be way worse than last year? Lol. I would've swore someone said this last year, and boy did they surprise us!

Last year they were expecting Ware, Ratliff, Hatcher, and Spencer to start.
