This Defense Is Going To Get Even Better

[McMicah]

Barring major injuries, this defense is going to continue to improve. Why?
1) Sam Williams is good. Like, really good. And he keeps showing up every week. This is a future 3-down DE we are talking about
2) Bland is going to surpass Lewis at some point. He’s just as sticky but seems to have better instincts
3) Damien Wilson is just gonna get smarter, but still be a psycho
4) Jabril Cox and Damone Clark are still in football daycare, but once mentally ready have talent to offer

I am stoked!!!!

Williams is an absolute beast. It almost seemed planned for them to unleash him vs the rams this week...because his playtime up to this point was headscratching.

Don't look now but Osa had 4 hits on the QB....been waiting on him too. I expect he will continue to get better.

We are a very young D and they are still getting better...scary stuff....for the opponent!

The talent is really starting to play up to their abilities. And they should get better.

Clearly they are a confident bunch and that means VERY much.

I see you're doing the Mashed Potato........ come post season, the D will be cooking.

 

[KJJ]

I just hope the defense doesn’t fade when we get to the critical games in December and January. That’s been the issue with the Cowboys over the years.

the DT rotation is doing well: Odighizuwa, Bohanna, Hill, Gallimore... quality depth is a great thing to have..

Nothing is really lost when backups rotate in... that's an ideal situation.

Depth at DE, LB, S, CB... DEPTH DEPTH DEPTH, I am liking that the depth is good and that the drop off from starters to backups is minimal at most positions.

Jabril Cox so far is the newest Matt Johnson. Makes some plays in training camp his rookie year, gets hurt and is never heard from again even though everyone keeps saying he’ll be the savior.

He got hurt 4 months before Gallup. Why isn’t he back yet?

Who the hell is Damien Wilson?? Donovan Wilson

He is back.

LOL my bad. I have no idea why I typed Damien. He exists but he plays LB for the Panthers

All good reasons to be excited for the future.

The real key for the defense to get better is to stay healthy. I’m just hoping the groin injury to Parsons doesn’t linger or get worse. We can’t afford to lose him.

I think we had a Damien Wilson at LB at one time. I wonder if he is the same one for Carolina.

 

[Nexx]

only thing that has me concerned is Micah getting dinged up lately.

I thought this was Williams' best game. Would be fantastic for him to come on and provide us with another rusher the defense has to give extra attention.

Micah Parson is not 100%. There is going to come a day when he must be rested to heal. All those young ones you named are exciting prospects but the most exciting to me is Damone Clark. When he finally gets activated, we will see something very special.

....and expensive to keep intact.

Windows are far narrower than they used to be. If the Cowboys want to benefit from this defense they need to do so this season

not really most of the defense are people we drafted and are here for at least another season.

 

[shabazz]

I would hope that the run defense improves from their #26 ranking. I have faith

The defense will be better once the offense can consistently sustain drives and score more points. This will give the defense needed rest and force the opponent to take more chances on offense which in turn give our defense to get more turnovers.
