Round of Aplause

Lack of a pass rush will make even the best corners look ordinary. I think we need to temper our early expectations. Even the Giants had some problems covering during games when the pass rush didn't get there.

Spags will build blitz schemes that will get there in three seconds. I live in New York and have watched Butler put the heat on the QB a lot. Spags will find another linebacker capable of getting to the QB quickly from the middle and we will be on our way. I predict Spags will also move Carriker to DE for most early downs...a nose tackle is needed.

But certainly two thumbs up so far.

I disagree somewhat, Shan. I think with no pass rush you can stil manage to contain the offense a bit with good secondary, even though it might still not be what you're looking for in a defense. However, if the offense plays well, you can manage to put up points to make it a high scoring game with the game determined by who makes the last stop ( example 31-28 or 34-31).

nO OFFENSE BUT YOU ARE SO WRONG... NO WAY.... ABSOLUTLY NOT....VERY INACCURATE....NOT EVEN CLOSE TO BEING CORRECT.... GIVE ME AN EXAMPLE JUST ONE PLEASE..

I'm with you Ramer, at least on paper we seem to be improving.
