We may have overpaid for him but it's not my money and he is still a huge upgrade regardless of whether he is a true shutdown corner or not. Yup. The Pats were on pace to be one of the worst pass defenses in NFL history by a longshot the first couple games of the season and then the players finally settled in and did their job Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that said I do think that may have been plan with going after Suh so hard, and since elite FA DL don't grow on trees this must have been plan B Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As good as Hopkins is he is not the burner Fuller is. Put your best CB on Hopkins and double the guy with the speed. Point being we gave up way too many short to mid passes to Fuller because we respected his speed and didn't have help over the top. It was easy for them to keep hitting him underneath the coverage. At minimal mix it up some. Disagree completely on the bolded part. I would much rather have them single cover the tougher throw deep (along the sidelines) from a burner who will get past you at some point. You just have to have enough faith in the defense to make him make a great catch if they want that throw. I do agree that we respected his speed a little too much but we don't have any guy on our team who can match with Deandre, it'd be a fucking nightmare to single-team him. I'd rather get beat by Fuller than see what Deandre would have done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajuntitan Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 I’ll take the naked aggression of Butler and all the highs and lows it entails every time over the 8 yard cushion Mccourty shit I had to endure for years.

MIKE75 Posted September 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 (edited) Do any of you ever stop and think how close we could've been ourselves to getting Bouye? Maybe its just me but i would've paid a extra million or two for Bouye in free agency over Ryan. Bouye and Jackson,Sims to me would've been just fine...... Like OMan said allocate Butler salary elsewere. I like JRob but a few moves here or there and WE could be the ones with the dominate defense. INstead of Butler imagine we do this.... Bouye and Jackson,Sims at CB Pay to get a guy like Calais Campbell next to Casey instead of Butler Why not?

kyle021 Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 Y’all realize there is literally a few inches that separates 108 yards on 2 catches for 2 TDS right? both were perfect passes and maybe one or two inches from Butlers arm when he tries to break it up. Each time he was in perfect position. When those passes become batted you will be singing his praises TNTitans 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
heyitsmeallen Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 The defense as a whole allows almost 7 yards per play and is bottom 5 in the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NashvilleNinja Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 Anyone know what the average for points and yardage allowed over the first 4 weeks of the season is for the whole league each season? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aramis Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 (edited) Asking a lot of the secondary when the pass rush is non-existent for large stretches. Was improved today from what I gathered, but still lacking. We need a blue chip draft pick or FA along the DLine. Suh would’ve been an awesome get - too bad LA were the competition.

Lmao They let em play on that one. And Butler got beat. No excuses for 12 million. For that 12 mil we could have Bouye. Would i take Bouye over Butler? Yes without a doubt. Sometimes you have to pay for shutdown product and didn't we attempt to get him at one point before he signed with Jax? Bouye couldnt have cost much more than Butler Trump2020 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
