Shelbyblue Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 I don’t know if our players have hit enough to be ready for the season. We seem to get pushed around by a second team offensive line, we are getting injured to easily. This 4 three with lighter linebackers may get eaten up by N.E. Run heavy 2 TE sets. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wont be able to run the ball when zach lights up their ass and their down 14-0 in the 1st quarter. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HawkeyeJet Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 My opinion is none of that has to do with toughness. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Spoot-Face Posted August 22, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 22, 2021 I feel like if Saleh had spent less time having the players play patty cake with each other in their underwear and more time taking turns running into brick walls while dodging wrenches, they'd be getting injured less. 1 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can dodge a wrench you can dodge a ball. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was gonna go for the "dodging traffic" angle for that joke, but thought differently because, well, you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoadFan Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 OP is right about one thing. Defense got pushed around. Quinnen… where are you?!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jethead Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 If it's not a toughness thing. It's the lack of actual tackling. Those are the new rules, So we might as well get used to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTJetsFan Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 What was the phrase that was popular on this board a few years back? "Tiny Linebacker(s)" Remains to be seen, but it could be a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we had our second team DL in from the start? You think that the injured ankles, knees and of course Lawsons Achilles were due to being hit enough at camp? Or J Davis's ankle was because hes a 4-3 LB? And he's going to get eaten up by NE because hes too light at 245 is too light to play against their TE's? Based on what?
