The defensive line has played well I like our group of DTs.(Wished we had better players and more depth at DE)
The linebackers have played decent (except when asked to do the ridiculous - like Zeise covering wheel routes and Brightwell covering Barkley - I remember Oduwu on Switzer last season) Has anyone actually played a play from scrimmage other than the starting three? Where is the depth?
Maddox,Jackson and Garner have been very good (that could change dramatically this week). I am not impressed by Briggs or Stocker. We need Whitehead back and need a third safety to emerge: Campbell, Miller or Ford. I doubt this happens as Narduzzi seems to like Briggs.
Maddox and Jackson look capable of playing tight man to man coverage, Garner looks like a capable safety, Whitehead will be back. The pass defense might actually be good (save Okl St).
What we need to do is to quit asking or linebackers to cover much faster and athletic players in space. It seems teams can get that matchup against us and it is disastrous.
And - What is up with Hamlin and Coleman?
