Why? Last season our points allowed totals was about 15th right? And imo we have better talent In the defense than last season so why not? I think Fuller is a stud tbh and will fill Peters role well. Berry coming back should also be a godsend. Whilst Ragland and Hitchens should certainly shore up the middle of the D. Our defense doesn't have to be like the Jaggs for us to have a successful season.

This was always a two year rebuild. If this defense can over achieve and be middle of the pack, then it’s a victory.

Those numbers are actually a case for Sutton analyzing how good the defense is in different situations and going with a bit of an unorthodox defense, since that was statistically the best defense we put on the field. As long as Berry, Ragland, and Hitchens can all play, we will be a much better defense.

The Pre-season brings about false hope and false hate.
I'll reserve my judgement for week 1 and beyond. I expect the defense to be better, which isn't hard. |

The defense will be at worst average. And I would feel very strongly about this if not for the fact that Amerson has looked underwhelming.

I'll bet you anything its bottom 10 overall. In fact IMO, that's its ceiling. This _efense is going to be terrible. No pass rush, bad Secondary and cant stop the run. What mskes it worse is they're counting on improvement coming from several key players who have a history of injuries. They need everything to go right for them just to be average. Way too many issues for all that to happen IMO.

Not judging the D until the regular season. We haven't had Hitchens, Ragland or Berry. Houston's played like 2 series. Bailey's barely played. We're trying out everyone at the other S spot with Sorenson down. We got a shit ton of rookies and new parts too. And like the offense, were not game planning or scheming for shit yet. I hate preseason

Whether people want to admit it or not, the team is rebuilding. The defense has been bad for a number of years and there is no reason to believe that will change this year. The offense has some key pieces but the line is not good and is going to limit what they can do. It's going to take another offseason of making solid moves to see the team turn the corner. They'll probably take a step back this year which is fine.

I somewhat like the fact that the backups have been playing at ILB and S so far during the past two games. There is probably a good chance they have to take the field during the season, so you might as well get them some playing time in a basic defense to see what they can do. Way too early to panic.
