Have fun at camp!

From what I've read, both Dorsey and Hali have really stepped up and impressed in the last couple of days.

It is really good to hear that it sounds like Dorsey does have a place in this defense. Hali it seems is just going to be asked to go after the QB and spend very little time in coverage. Very encouraging that he's dropped weight and apparently looks quicker.

Actually, no. The Predator is primarily a pass rusher with very limited coverage responsibility.
First it was said that Hali was playing over the left tackle and rushing the QB. That's fine. If he lines up there he will be fulfilling that pass rushing role. But then someone came out and said that they'd switched Hali and Vrabel and now Vrabel was lining up over LT and Hali was on the other side.

TRR:Vrabel and Hali have recently switched spots in the 3-4. Vrabel is now over the Left Tackle, and Hali is over the Right Tackle
Whoevers playing that other side will be in coverage more often then not.

Coverage is not the strong suit for either of those guys but I shudder at the thought of Tamba covering guys out of the backfield.

If Hali can't beat left tackles you might see them flop in obvious passing situations.

The one thing to consider about Hali, though, and it's something I'll be really interested in watching is... keep in mind that Hali has always been asked to max out his weight. Because he always seemed to be a tweener between an every-down DE like Mario Williams and an edge rusher like Berry.

Maybe if he plays 10 lbs lighter, he can move a little faster. I have no idea.

Tyson Jackson is a stud DE the likes of Reggie White. Since that is about how is he was drafted and is getting paid.

Tank Tyler is a solid NT that holds the middle

Glenn Dorsey comes on in his 2nd year to live in opponents backfield.

Tamba Hali regains his quickness at the lighter weight and turns into a quality pass rusher

Derrick Johnson finally pulls his head of his ass and becomes a tackling machine

Put these together with our quality young cover guys and BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE!! :D



That post has me all jacked up!

Could it be that we are overestimating Herm Edwards' coaching ablilities?? Thats a scary thought that all these player we have grown to consider busts may actually come good...

A lot of these players will be just fine. It's moreso because idiots think that players are useless if they're not pro bowlers within 3 seasons.

It's working out fine. If you watch, dorsey is getting double teamed which allows pressure from the outside. Our run defense seems to be better than last year.

They only gave up a little over 3 yards a carry in the preseason, so yes it does seem better.

We'll see what happens when the real games start.

Yep. But then you ate it for breakfast along with your reerun omlet...

Look up sarcasm in the dictionary. You might learn something other than how to eat wiped ass...
