C'mon, keep them pinned back there. **********Automerged Doublepost********** So close and johnson comes up big again. **********Automerged Doublepost********** If you are a DE and can't run down a pocket qb, thats a goos sign you are on downside of career.
Our defensive line as a whole is so disappointing. I guess not even Marinelli can make chicken salad out of this chicken crap.
Ffs tackle him. **********Automerged Doublepost********** They aren't terrible, but the whole point of this defensive scheme is getting pressure when you rush 4 and I don't think we have done that at all this season. **********Automerged Doublepost********** Bleh, rush D goes awol when it counts yet again.
The lack of pass rush is awful and made even worse by our inability to effectively blitz. If we had an awesome secondary then maybe we could afford to have this DL play mediocre but we don't. We have an awful secondary and beat up linebackers and that makes our lack of DL production a very major problem for this entire defense.
Tied 21-21 at the half. Bears need pressure from D in second and need to do something about calvin johnson.
They may as well keep the LB in coverage because the blitzes are not working at all and just giving Stafford more wide open receivers down the field. The DL has to step up somehow. I don't think they can do it though, not outside of Alex who I still like. Wally is old and on the decline. Tommie is washed up. Yeah he got a lucky pick. He just isn't a factor like he used to be.
Definitely looks like our first pick next year is going to be on a lineman and most likely a d-lineman. **********Automerged Doublepost********** TD knox, no flags. 28-21 **********Automerged Doublepost********** Good persistance there, he nearly had a gap to escape.
Can't complain about that sort of field position, just outside fg range before the drive has started.
Realistically making those kind of kicks is a bonus, he's just so good everywhere else it would be churlish to moan about his leg strength. **********Automerged Doublepost********** Was that pressure I saw? **********Automerged Doublepost********** Wonder if our other two wrs are ever not going to be inactive on a gameday. **********Automerged Doublepost********** Fumble, bears ball. **********Automerged Doublepost********** Shame we couldn't get 7 there, but not being punished for that fumble doesn't hurt.
Yeah Aromashadu being inactive all the time is a surprise. I thought he did some good things in preseason.
Think he's been unlucky, injured for week 1 and then knox has done a lot better than they expected this early.
