A 30 percent pressure rate for two linemen is a great sign or things to come. But as others have said, it's also reliant on who you're going against.... Chandler Jones had 5 sacks because he was going against a gimpy shouldn't have been back Lewan. Who you line up against changes each week Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s why my numeric prediction on sacks was just for the next 3 games. Overall though, Simmons and Autry are good enough to go toe to toe with any interior. They may not win as often but they will get wins. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the most part the OLBs were in a containment mode while the middle pushed. If you watched, many times Wilson had no place to escape and had to just eat the sack. All 3 times?

IowaOiler Posted September 21, 2021 Report Share Posted September 21, 2021 1 hour ago, StephenIsLegend said: What did you think of the game this past weekend? Second half defense was money. Ya feel? It seemed good, but I also don't know how much Seattle adjusted to being on the cusp of a blowout. I was flying, so catching updates via ESPN rather than watching. The thing about pressure, especially interior pressure, is that it can be schemed. For example, we are facing the Colts this week and regardless of QB, they will run the ball and probably use screens and other quick passing concepts to mitigate any potential interior pass rush. I think Autry and Simmons will struggle to 'feast' on that, which is the point. The game will come down to 3rd downs on defense, our offensive being less predictive on first down, and if our kicker can be moderately dependable...as every game does in the Fisher Vrabel era.

Callidus Posted September 22, 2021 Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 (edited) Pass Rush Win Rate through week 2 (ESPN): TB-63% LAC-62% NYJ-60% BUF-58% CLE-56% CAR, LAR, LV, PHI, PIT: 54% ARI-52% TEN, WAS-49% DAL-48% SEA-46% JAX, SF-44% MIA-43% NO-42% NE-41% GB-40% CHI, NYG-39% BAL, DEN-38% ATL-37% CIN, HOU-36% MIN-35% IND-34% DET-31% KC-26% Tied for 12th. Not world breaking but better than next to last. Edited September 22, 2021 by Callidus begooode 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rns90 Posted September 22, 2021 Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 (edited) Disappointment if they allow a ton of points to the struggling rookie qb's. They need to get the easy wins before the Bills/Chiefs/Rams (with a Colts game stuck in between) portion of the schedule. As far the edge guys go, I still find it really difficult to grade/assess Dupree since he may not be 100% yet.

OILERMAN Posted September 22, 2021 Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 One of the breakdowns I heard said the Titans played a lot of 4-3 with Crunk and Jackson in the OLB positions. They were basically daring the Seahawks to run but the Titans DL was so dominant the Seahawks couldn't run.

Justafan Posted September 22, 2021 Report Share Posted September 22, 2021 It's clear as day that the pass rush and defense overall is better than last year. They've still given up a ton of points the first two weeks to good offenses. The Titans proved this week they can go toe to toe with anyone though.

We already knew this based on the last few years. The open question is can they do it consistently against good teams and ultimately in the playoffs. We should also cool it about the defense clearly being better. The were terrible in one game and better in one game. Although they still gave up 30 points in the second game. We need to see more.
