Re: New Look Defense

Here are some defensive stats from last year:
FOOTBALL OUTSIDERS: Innovative Statistics, Intelligent Analysis | 2014 DEFENSIVE EFFICIENCY RATINGS

Football Outsiders Defensive Efficiency Stats:

Overall Defense: 30th

Pass Defense: 32nd Dead Dog Last

Rush Defense: 9th

I like the above FBO defensive stats because raw yards and even points doesn't completely isolate the defense from special teams and offense.

Other stats I like to judge the defense:
NFL Stats: by Team Category

QB rating against: 108.3 or Dead Dog Last

YPA against: 8.2 tied w/ ATL for Dead Dog Last

Total Interceptions: 7 tied for 4th least

Sacks: 36 tied for 21st

Hopefully, the "New Look" includes better tackling:

They haven't even put on the pads yet. Joe Barry doesn't know the half of what he's in for with some of these players.

But fear not because Scot will just continue to get rid of players who can't or won't tackle and add players who can and will tackle. I trust that we're on the right track as far as tackling is concerned.

Yeesh! We really sucked last season. Well, ever onward! I'm looking forward to seeing some improvement this season.

I think one focus was the ability to successfully chase the other team into the end zone. I think I remember a quote by haslett, and I might be paraphrasing here, but he said something along the lines of "when the game is over and our opponents leave the field I want them to be physically out of breath from being chased all day into the end zone. we are gonna chase harder than anyone else in the league."

I call that focus

Re: New Look Defense

Yes that is similar to the strategy of using your face to wear down your opponents fists in the manly arts......
It's good to have a strategy.
