Can we blitz PLEASE!!!

[ottie35]

Why is it we just dont take chances on defense? We HAD to put pressure today on Flacco, and we didnt. I sat there all game waiting for the kitchen sink and it didnt happen. The plays we sent extra guys are the plays Flacco made mistakes and bad throws. Why didnt we continue that throughout the game?

Time for a new DC.......

I agree man...when we blitz good things seem to happen. Look at the Jests game...

i really believe that we need to bring in some other linebackers who are very good at blitzing, because we can't only blitz joey porter and expect results. we need to get a good pass rushing backer or two opposite joey porter so teams will worry about them, so joey can sneak around the back. and when they slide the line to joey, one of the other guys will get pressure.

our blitz did work this game...the problem is when we didn't blitz Flacco had 4 plus seconds to throw the damn ball.....

def did not blitz close to enough. if your getting picked apart sitting back in coverage why not take some chances and force the action. to his credit flacco played well, but we waited far to long to really turn up the heat on him

because we don't have any pass rushers beyond Porter,and we all know this...but i feel this'll be taken care of in this offseason....

Hopefully Joey speaks out about this to the press.

Honestly, what we did on defense was fine. You guys know that.

Hopefully Joey speaks out about this to the press.

This just emphasized that LB is a position of need for us this year .... we need no less than 2 (ILB & OLB)
