These guys are fighting hard out there. They are playing well with ZERO pass rush, that's impressive.
That's what most impressive to me. It's insane trying to cover when a QB has virtually the entire day to throw.

These guys have impressed given their atrocious start but I think the bar is pretty low. Needham would be good for depth but I wouldn't be comfortable having him penciled in as a #2 corner. Wiltz and Webster have shown improvement, that's pretty much it really. Fair play to them but I'm not getting over excited.
Every time this team wins a game people think we have all the right players but the fact is we really need to add some talent. We're seeing some young players develop that have a chance to be a part of this team moving forward but there's a lot of work to be done. I expect around 20 new players in 2020
We are also playing more man coverage, than in previous years.There are some really good man to man plays out there. It’s breaking down because there is no pass rush and QBs can make pinpoint passes 5-7 seconds after the snap.
I would love to see this same group with a pass rush
Needham is a #4 and Wiltz is a #5. Toss Lammons, Lewis and Webster for #6. We need a #2 and a slot.
We need AT LEAST THREE new DBs. A vet FA, a second day pick and a third day pick.
Why would you think Tankersly is anything other than a long shot at this point?I agree they need to bring in 2-3 DB's. If Howard and Tankersly are healthy then there are 2 and one is a top 10 CB in the league. They need a FS and move McCain back to the slot. From what I have seen from Needham he is a #2/3 CB. He's playing #1 right now and doing a pretty good job with no pass rush to help him.
If we're able to secure a bell-cow type back who will take 85% of the load then I have no problem having Laird as our Burkhead/White type player who can break a tackle when needed and has solid hands out of the backfield.dude, if Laird is our number 2 next year we had a bad offseason
He’s a 3 at best. And I’m a fan of his
I doubt you will see any back take 85% of the load in this offense. If the Patriot example is reality, RBs are plug in type guys, who get their snaps on the basis of the game plan for specific opponents.If we're able to secure a bell-cow type back who will take 85% of the load then I have no problem having Laird as our Burkhead/White type player who can break a tackle when needed and has solid hands out of the backfield.
Needham has shown he can be a solid corner he has good footwork and has the size and knows the scheme well.
Wiltz has been a solid slot CB after he got destroyed in week 1.
Webster can be a decent dime corner as well for depth.
Opposite Taco?Never said we dont need to add players...would like a new pass rusher opposite of Taco....new running back....new guards......new safety....new speedy WR....new center......new LT...new QB.....
