Sunday is D day for Tank Johnson!

[CrazyCowboy]

Our brand new toy TANK will be hitting the field on Sunday!

How do you feel Tank will help our Defense improve?

Will he get the big bull rushes up the middle?

Will Ratliff be even MORE effective with the rest Tank will give him?

This player can be huge for our DEFENSE!

 

[Hostile]

I wasn't keen on this signing. Now I can't wait. I think if we showed any weakness at all last night it was up the middle. Ratliff getting adequate rest would be great.

I wonder when the deadline is for someone to pack his bags and we activate Tank?

Ratliff didn't have a great night last night. That could be the result of him wearing down already considering he's literally playing almost every single defensive snap. Tank joining the rotation couldn't come any sooner.

I love second half reinforcements. I don't know much about him as a player. I do know Chicago's defense doesn't look the same w/o him.

 

[CATCH17]

The second Ferguson went down I was calling for this guy. Im glad Jerry thinks like me.

Go Getem Tank!

 

[Coakleys Dad]

Tank is going to help keep ratliff fresh and bring his style to the field.. I cant wait.

Ratliff didn't have a great game, but the Eagles have a very nice interior line. I felt last year if it weren't for the coverage Gurode got b/c of the Haynseworth incident, that Jamal Jackson would have gone to the probowl instead.

Good timing going to NY and facing Jacobs. We are going to need him in the middle and keeping everyone fresh!

 

[stealth]

any reports on how he looks in practice?

I think I recall Wade saying he was very quick in one of his pressers.

Yeah, Wade has sounded pretty impressed, saying he's looked quick and strong.

I don't either, but word is he's the main reason Chicago was tough to run on last season. The Cowboys aren't bad against the run, but supposedly with Tank in there it's going to become MUCH tougher. With him in on running downs and a fresh Ratliff in there on passing downs ... wow, I'm excited just thinking about it! Just in time too, with the G'ints coming up.

 

[Boyzmamacita]

Tank has a chip on his shoulder and he's gonna take it out on other NFL teams. It should be fun to watch.

Dallas has until 3:00pm CST today to cut someone and add Johnson.

I actually hoped we would sign him, so I am a pig in poop.

Dudes totally distruptive. I feel like his enegry and distruption in the interior will be a god send for the DEs. Canty, Spears, Rat, Tank, Hatch could be a big ugly massive line in short time.

I think its huge.

Can we afford to part with Joe Berger?
