Yeah I'm less trusting of Blache's scheme and strategy the more I see. He just doesn't seem to find ways to consistently get pressure on the QB. He also can't seem to pin down the opposing OCs passing attack. Something is amiss.
Smoot said they were being very vanilla though. I hope that's the case.

That's interesting.
Does anybody wonder if Blache isn't demanding 150% right meow to 1) minimize injury risk 2) hide what he plans to bring come sept. 13 (please God let this be the case)?

When did Blache become a cat? LOL.

Haven't read jack, but intriguing thread....Deangelo was Schooled, Smoot fought hard...safeties are fine...
Too bad Springs is gone...better in coverage and better tackling...expecially with bigger guys.

Brady to Moss will expose almost anyone, unfortunately.
Glad we saw them in preseason so we can work on it!

As much as I like Blache and the defense, I largely agree with GTripp. We're a very, very good defense, but we're not elite. Elite defenses produce sacks, many 3&Os, and turnovers.

Yep...that's the bottom line at this point. Blache still has work to do. Let's hope he's not done scheming and he "gets smarter."

I don't think anyone around here thinks we're an elite defense. My only beef w/ Blache is he needs to hide his blitzes a little better.

Sounds like your problem is less with the analysis and more with the fact that I was the one bringing it.
It's just think that you're always finding things to pick at about the defense. I think everyone here knows that we're not in the same class as Pittsburgh and Balt. They've got better players and their schemes are better. But the scoring defense was very good. Do you agree with that?
