I don't have a problem with the defense in general it's just that bradley is not teaching his defenders to be organized opportunists on the field. No takeaways is a form of deficiency (except ingram). Can't blame that on the offense.
Defense will be more opportunistic when offense can get up by 2 scores.
I like what Tillery is doing. Nwosu is starting to get after it. Bosa is always disruptive. Think they will help put pressure on opponents and create some more turnovers soon. Derwin versatility is missed.
2020 is all about what the Offense can get done.
Defense will make enough plays and keep the opponent score down in most games to give offense a chance to win each and every game.Who has it better than us?

"Experts" have said we have one of the best tandem pass rushers in the league. I think Merriman and Phillips were better as a tandem. Phillips at 9 years in his career had 20 more sacks, 2 TDs and more INTs and over 100 more tackles. He has more as he played 12 years but just comparing at the same stage.
Posters used to say Phillips should give a cut of his next salary to Merriman because it is because of him, Shaun has been freed up. Whats Mels excuse?
Ive just been very disapointed with Ingram ....if that hasnt been apparent yet :tongue:
Maybe id feel different if the coaches realized he is better suited elsewhere and put him there and got another pass rusher. It was suggested that he should be moved to MLB. He is a good athlete, maybe wasted as a DE/Leo.

I agree Merriman and Phillips were better as a tandem. Mel has never been a steady pass rusher. Wish we had a Fred Dean with Bosa! I doubt Nwosu will ever be much of a threat as a pass rusher - we need a stud opposite Bosa.THE YEAR OF THE FLIP!

I know you’re disappointed in Ingram. The Ingram thread this offseason served as a reminder. I disagree with your assessment. The only thing I would say is Ingram would have flashier stats if he was playing with a more blitz heavy DC like Bowles or even Wade.
Whats to disagree about? Where is he excelling for us? He has like 12 QB hits last year. I pointed out before that many other pass rushers have had way more than him the past 2 seasons. His best is 25. In 12 games as a rookie, Bosa had 21. Bosa had 31 last year.
If i could find a Hurries stat, id show that too as im sure it isnt that good either.
I have to stop talking about him....my wants for a trade will go down lol

And Boss is a special type of talent like Merriman. You don’t need to blitz him.

He had 7 QB pressures vs the Panthers.My 2021 Adopt-A-Bolt List
