Here's my argument to all that keep on saying "key players missing" and "vanilla" excuses: Seahawks are deconstructing teams in preseason while still playing vanilla and still not starting guys like Lynch...so their team is so deep that they can play man or basic zone even with backups and completely shut teams down. Meanwhile we give up 150 yds per quarter. Let's try to be realistic here, it is time to worry. And the youth excuse kills me too...Seahawks are very young also. Their depth is the best I've seen on defense, ever. Guys keep saying how good our D is but it realm isn't. I said in another post, lol, all of GBs QBs had ratings over 100... The ONLY thing good on our D is our DL, and all they can do is pass rush...but what good is that when all teams have to do is throw it up and its either a completion or PI...
You're getting caught up in the bologna. You you really expect us to destroy the Packers with basic sets that have no disguises or anything? Sure he only played a half. But we did dam good to not give up 2 TD's.
As for the secondary, you did we were backing them off like Tim Walton, right? Unless Williams is Tim Walton in make up, that will not be our defense. Last week Vs the Saints was a better comparison. All the short passes worked then, too. Do you really think QB's are just gonna get away with their short crap when the season rolls around? Hell no, it'll work for a while until we start trapping their WR's and mistakes are made in the form of TO's. They will eat turf, too.
You really think it matters if Hooey can't block for Austin Davis? You know Fisher just left him in there to let him have his shot?
Did you know the Chargers didn't contain Wilson in the Red Zone worth a dog ****? Yeah, kinda gotta do that!!!
So the Rams learned new lessons yesterday in the glorified practice. Whew!!! What's all that really matter???? No starters got hurt, Bradford broke some rust and showed the knee is good to go, and the youngsters got some valuable reps. That's all that matters, chicken little!
