Ok lets see here. McCourty, Bodden, Arrington, Brown, Barrett, Molden, Philips, Ventrone, and Ihedigbo. Well I only have marginal faith in the first three. With six of them out there...crap. Can I get me some pass rush?
I think the run defense is better than people realize. Giving up less than 100 yards per game while playing a lot of nickel is pretty good. Playing with a lead helps to keep the rushing attempts down but results in a higher Yds/Carry. For instance, Ryan Matthews was effective running draws but...
The defense? Lets check the drives:
First drive 84 yards, TD.
3-and-out
6-and-out
3-and-out
4-and-out
Halftime
9 yards TD off INT
FG
3-and-out
3-and-out (-4 yards)
Downs
TD
Gameover
Summary: 6 Punts, 3 TDs (1 off INT), and an FG.
Miami was successful in one of three ways. 1) Brandon...
Ken, you wrote everything I was thinking about that guy's post and this game. :) San Diego's defense will have to win this game. That's a tall task even for a good defense like the Chargers.
Antonio Gates played last year. He Scored a TD. The best offensive player for the Chargers in that game was Darren Sproles. Marcus McNeil had a lot a trouble with Jared Allen last week. Actually the entire offensive line had trouble blocking. IDK if Floyd played last year but he wasn't thrown...
I think it will be low scoring unless Miami turns it over. I'm not worried about Miami's offense. I think more pressure from us will affect Henne a lot. Brady and the offense might have some trouble. It's a road night game to start the year. I'd like a W but this looks like a coin flip.
The way I understand it is that Geno Wilson was able to step in as starting safety his rookie year because Rodney was able to lead a secondary with Ty Law and Tyrone Poole as the corners. In 2003 they were all 29-31 years old.
Now with Chung, McCourty and Bodden we don't have the same level of...
We have several receivers who can get open in the middle of the field. Price has the skills and talent to get open on the outside. Much like Jabbar Gafney. So far in preseason both Ocho and Branch haven't been able to win one-on-one. Price has been able to.
Price had a punt return in the 4th quarter. It looked like he took a low hit to his left knee. He came up gingerly and they went to a sideline interview. At the time I remember hoping he didn't injure his knee. The Head-to-head hit came with 14 min left. This punt was when there was 6 min left...
