Dline depth 2018

[supersaiyanshel]

Maybe because we didn't have a consistent offense to keep the defense off the field long enough to recover fully is the reason we had to always rotate on the Dline. Being able to score on explosive plays is great, but we need to be able to mix it in with long sustained drives to keep the defense fresh. Just a guess

Also, the defense can't stop anyone on third down, getting themselves off the field.

This right here.3rd and long was our opponents easiest play all season.

If our offense takes the next step as expected we are going to be a quick strike team so nothing really changes in terms of how many times the D wil be on the field.

Whether its a 3 and out, or a 3 and a TD, Diaz gotta tighten up.

Can someone post who we got coming back on the Dline, so we can get a clearer picture.

De
Joe Jackson(stud, plain and simple)
Demetrius Jackson(played like the best de when he was healthy this season)
Jon Garvin(talented young player)
Scott Patchan(love his get off)
Chatfield(?)
Greg Rousseau

Dt
Willis
Bethel
Ford
Silvera(family loves Miami and Richt- cane period) looking like the top dt at the army game
Briggs or Carson?
Martin?

Seriously... our DT depth is horrible. Period. No way to sugar coat that. One major injury to DT room and we are toast. Unless we add Carson or Briggs, then it gets better. But we are still talking about two kids who are not elite...at least not yet.

RELAX there can be transfers.... Wow people haven't returned to school and people are having heart aches.
