:wow:

We shyt on our defense alot but they held it down for us. We allowed the same points per game on 2014 and 15 so i feel we will be in good hands. Bend but dont break.

Most games last year were low scoring and winnable. 9/12 losses were by 11 points or less. Add on to that we probably have one of the easiest schedules cause of the bad record.

Only blowouts were the pats panthers and packers

Our defense appeared better than it was last year because of how bad and inept we were on offense.

Teams would get up 2 scores quick and early, and then go conservative and run the ball to end the game early. Of course they're not going to light up our secondary for 400 yards and 4 passing TDs when Weeden/Cassell can't even get the ball past mid field.

Teams just ran bland vanilla offenses on us and looked at us as a Bye week. Don't buy into the "our defense was actually pretty good!" last year hype. shyt was garbage. When we needed stops in close games (TB, PHI, NO), we didn't get them.

The defense sucked last year, but will be much better this year. Our two biggest scrubs on D (Hayden and Wilcox) wont be on the field anymore and we will put a real offense offense on the field to take pressure off the defense.

Dont sleep on Collins and Tapper on the D-Line. We finally will have a nice rotation at DT to help stuff the run and keep blockers off Lee and McClain.

The Dline has talent. I believe Crawford is gonna have a bounce back yr. Dlaw and Gregory really messed stuff up:francis:

I don't think it was as bad as people think. It was on some shyt at times but most of the games they did what they was supposed to until they needed that one last stop. Maybe with the O being better they will not have to always be counted on to get that one last stop they never do.
