What Scares You Most?

You are on to something there. I do fear after winning 3 straight Super Bowl titles the team might get cocky and complacent. :tongue:

We'll know it when we see it!

My biggest worry this season????

Not being able to get super bowl tickets to watch my bolts win it all at home.

Biggest fear? A slow start?
It seems every year the fan base gets excited because we close out the year winning 4 out of 5( or something of the sort), giving A LOT of people the opinion that we're CLOSE to be being a good football team( which we most definitely have NOT been for the past 10 years!)
This group DESPERATELY needs to be 3-1, 4-2, 5-2 ( somewheres around there) for them to have a meaningful shot at the Lombardi tournament.
For most of our roster, tomorrow's game will be the first time they've gone full speed against an opponent, TOGETHER. Whilst I'm glad we're healthy, being cohesive and efficient may not happen for awhile.

tomorrow's game

This season the NFL added a week between preseason and regular season. No games Sunday.

No games tomorrow? Well, that works well for me....I'm canoeing down the Allier River in the Haute Loire region of France for the next week.

A Brit, canoeing French rivers, thinking of American football, Chargers style. Some building blocks there for a good life.

I hate clowns. What kind of sick demented grown adult decides to devote his/her energies to the satanic craft of clowning? Btw - there’s more than one hidden clown on this site. I know who you are, you sick fucks.

I am not scared. Scared is wasted energy, this is football, not my child dangling over a cliff edge. i would bolster depth of talent from end to end on the DLine (minus Joey’s end) to enable a vicious relentless rotation thru 4Qs to the final whistle, and I would get some backup OTs as insurance. But i am not scared.

oh, and upon reflection, I would resign TBilly - at any cost

Sounds fantastic

We have been trying to get to Switzerland for a couple years - maybe next year - have you ever been?

What scares me the most -- Special Teams and OLine being the same old same

What scares you most?

Pass rush. Needs drastic improvement this year. I don't see it.

-In preseason we've rushed our starting ILB's.
-Derwin has a high rate of getting to the QB when he does rush.
-Bosa is healthy.
-We've got decent pass rush size opposite Bosa in 6-5 Fackrell and 6-3 Rumph.
-Fackrell has 20.5 sacks to 18 NFL starts. Good ratio.
-Fackrell's 1.61 10-yard split is faster than Bosa 1.68 and Melvin Ingram 1.62. That's freakin explosive for a big frame dude.
-Rumph's 1.65 10-yard split is not too shabby.

-Staley's defenses are known to get to the QB.

That makes me feel better. We were 25th in sacks last year, and didn't get much of any push up the middle.

I am still curious what this new role for Bosa is all about. I don't think dropping him back in pass coverage is utilizing his skills, but we'll see what Staley has in mind.
