Per usual, it wasn’t as bad as it seemed here
The defense was buttfucking awful, but I'm looking at it again now and I think mostly it's due to guys like Eligwe, Terrance Smith and Murray trying to play vs starters. They are all awful. [Reply]

They’re just not ready to be starters against that level of offense. As depth or whatever they’re not bad I guess.
Like the one long run, you’d like to think if that’s one of the starters at ILB it’s a 2 yard gain [Reply]
I want to see close to our actual starting defense (with Ragland and Hitchens) against the Bears. I know this defense isn't good, but I want to see if we're a bottom feeder or if we're just a mediocre defense that gets outclassed by talented offensive squads. What do we look like when we have linebackers who DON'T constantly fuck up like Eligwe and Smith do? [Reply]

A lot of what we've seen appears to be fixable once the starters come in and we get Amerson off the field. [Reply]

I agree with everything else, but I haven’t seen Murray make 1 mistake/bad play all preseason. [Reply]

Great, in that case we better be doing some heavy praying that we don't have any starters go down with injuries or have to come out for a rest! [Reply]
