I'd say that also transpires to negative plays and we seem to be EXPERTS at those. We will need our "D" to perform and the "O" to capitalize on what the "D" provides.

Just my opinion but they have been really getting after the QB but one thing I’ve noticed is the first half they are really getting pressure from their OLB position but towards the end of the game those guys are gassed. We then have to constantly disguise with Hilton and Edmonds. To get pressure. Hopefully it’s because it’s the beginning of the season and they have to learn how to pace themselves.

They come in with a game plan and execute it well in the first half. The other team makes adjustments to limit what TJ/Budd have been doing and then they counter by making adjustments that bring the pressure from other places. I have noticed that at least in the first two games, they've been pretty good at getting Ola and Highsmith out there to spell Budd and TJ. Of course, a lot of that has to do with the starters waving the backups in when they need a breather.

Ola and Highsmith looked pretty damn good in the first game, didn't see them as much against the Broncs. I do hope they keep the rotation going, I doubt we're going to be able to sign Bud, so one of those other two will need to step up sooner rather than later, and the more in game reps they get now the better. The great thing is while there was obviously a bit of a drop off, those guys were still getting after the qb too, so that's pretty damn exciting.

Watson not only has a shaky OL, he tends to hold the ball too long. He has been sacked 8 times in 2 games this year. Before that he was sacked 44 times in 2019, and league high 62 times in 2018.

I think Houston was nuts to give him the contact they did.

[FONT=arial, sans-serif]Bawhahaha. Sure he's worth that amount.

Next Sunday its open season on Watson.

Whats wrong coach, you not getting enough attention? Need to change up your font so (everyone can look at you?) Or maybe you cut and pasted your response from somewhere else. Either way, A good moderator would have told you about this already.. Oh wait.. he did.


Hey coolie.
 
I am worried that Watson is going to get alot of running yards on us. gotta have a gameplan to stop his from happening

this might be a time for us to let Bince see a little less PT, put Edmunds in as a spy and play Davis more.

Hey coolie.

You will not find this on the web the thoughts are my own, thank you very much.

Watson not only has a shaky OL, he tends to hold the ball too long. He has been sacked 8 times in 3 games this year. Before that he was sacked 44 times in 2019, and a league high 62 times 2018.

Such is relevant information to the thread. As for Watson's contract, yes I looked that up. I know it might be hard but try not to make every thread bout me.
 
Butler is going to be sending blitzes from all over the place, with several different players....Bud, TJ of course. But we will see 55/98/28/20/34 even 39 from the strong and weak sides. Not to mention Bince’s specialty...up the middle.

So you saying limit Vince Williams, one of best and most physical tacklers, and let smaller man ( Edmunds ) who leads the team in missed tackles take his spot?

Denver ran easy on on until we had the lead and they had to pass more. No thank you. Bush needs to get on his game.

that thought is not original...hell I've posted several times that houston has a shaky ol......the rest of your comment is not ground breaking

his main point was about your asinine need to increase the font size of your posts...which I fixed for you....stop doing it or I will give you a vacation
