Message: [QUOTE="anomander, post: 1474780, member: 2766"] What an interesting game. Talk about a tale of 2 halves. Have to go and watch the replay, but from the stands here's what stood out to me. - Defensive Line - Once again Daoust is showing why he is one of the very best in the business. DL controlled the game, and absolutely dominated in the 2nd half. Sugar Bear was the game MVP in my eyes. It's so much easier when we can generate an organic pass rush. Suga Bear was causing all sorts of problems, and Simmons was making plays again as well. Such an upgrade between these 2 and Welsh/Robinson from last year. The young DT's were excellent as well. All the DT's were very good clogging the middle and making plays. - Linebackers - Excellent once again. On both INT''s it was caused by blitzes from Franklin, and then Hodge who hit the QB forcing an errant pass. Lots of hard hits too. I liked what I saw from Jonathan Thomas. Thought he made a couple splash plays against URI, and did the same today. Love this unit and they still have 3 years together. - DB's - Ugh. Cordy is a playmaker, but also cost 2 big plays with missed tackles. Still think he's the best of the bunch though. I think Morgan has to be in there, even if it's for Whigham who just continues to struggle. There are cushions, and then there is Whigham covering his man. This unit has to improve in a hurry, even if it means shaking it up. - Defensive adjustments - That being said above Shafer and the staff went in and made some good adjustments. Increased the pressure on Wolford, and CB's were more aggressive. - 1st half - Made me want to puke. Far too conservative on both sides of the ball. I'm hoping the real team is the one that came out and played and coached like the team in the 2nd half. - Dungey - Bright future, and has the ability to be very good this season. That TD to Ish was all him. His feet gave him the ability to buy time and hit Ish as his man got caught peeking in. Same thing with the TD to Bris. Those were all Dungey. Could Hunt do that? I'm not so sure. imo Dungey gives us a better chance to win THIS year. - Speaking of Ish, Lester has to find a way to get him more involved. He's one of the only WR's who can get open consistently. - More Fredericks. More Strickland. - Still thought Shafer was far too conservative with his game management. - How did we get back to people thinking it's a good idea to jingling their damn keys. So freaking stupid. Just clap, and yell, and put your damn keys in your pocket.. CUSE 3wins WAKE 0 [/QUOTE]
