Which New Additions Can Help vs the Run?

[shabazz]

Oops...sorry...you said "new additions". My bad. Maybe Toia can eventually help us out.

Perhaps we have to view Mazi as a new addition because hes been AWOL the past two seasons. A new DC is his last lifeline.

If that guy still gets manhandled and doesn't get any push in collapsing the pocket, the experiment will be over.

I'm not celebrating anything, or in your world is pointing out a fact a celebration?

The post I was originally responded to seemed to be shocked that simply because we had Parsons the avg points per game was somehow higher than it should have been.

I was simply pointing out he is but 1 of 11 actually more with rotations playing Defense. And this could not be personally responsible for all of those scores especially the ones he didn't even play in.

You opted to jump in on that conversation and make false claims or at least allude to false claims or mentioning Detroit a game Parson did not play in, invent entirely new meanings for words or celebration means pointing out facts. Then couldn't resist bringing up Dak in a conversation about Defense.

Why do you think it is you do these things?

you pointed out ravens scored 28 points...stated as a fact, doesn't change the fact the defense got gashed.

and yes, parsons is 1 of 11. I don't disagree, that's why I said, he is part of the issue.

not in the habit of reading 100s of comments in a 3 page thread to make sense of a lot of non sense some people tend to talk about.

this defense sucked last year. parsons, diggs, osa, mazi, etc. all part of the problem. when healthy they sucked. when injured they sucked. people celebrated that we got better at the end of the year. it was mainly the opponents we played, who were bottom feeders offensively.

with that said. it doesn't matter. there is really no analysis to be done. no evaluation to be done. the defense sucked. they were all responsible and accountable for the suckiness

not one player. the whole defense. and one player is not going to fix the defense. we replaced a bunch of JAGS at LB, with a whole new bunch of JAGS. didn't fix DT problems. the safties were bad before, now a year older, still bad. and top 3 CBs are coming off major injuries.

the offense should be ok.

Correct not one person's fault. I'm not sure why the debate then? And Bland will be just fine he returned very nicely during the season, hurt 10 games, coincidentally the 3 games you mention as being "before all the injuries" Bland was hurt, one of those Parsons was hurt.

No Lawrence either after week 4 3 out 11 starters on D missed significant time.

This is my whole point. Not sure why you needed to turn it into more than that.

Also doesn't equal celebrating, and serves to bolster my entire point, it's not all Parsons.

Then why wade into a conversation part way through and attempt to be authoritative and give misleading at best facts! Do you do that often in life? Your laziness to hit an up arrow on a reply to see what was said is a you issue not an US issue.

I am not sure if its a debate, as much as a comment and conversation.

and yes, the D defintely suffered because of injuries. but my point was that even before injuries the defense was bad.

and I am not really turning it into anything more. just that all of the defensive players played a part in the debacle as we both acknowledged and that not one single person is responsible.

what!?

again, I agreed that its never a single person. its the whole team.

my whole point was the even before injuries the defense sucked. and parsons has to also be part of the issue. now, does it mean they all bear the same amount of accountability and responsibility? no. parsons less than others, but he was also less than perfect and problematic.

and what's with the life questions...you seem to have gotten off track on psychology of things for some strange reason.

good luck on trying to be an amateur arm chair psychologist. perhaps you should try something different.

done!
