i have a gut feeling that Rouse is going to play so well that even when the man with the game system as his first name gets healthy Rouse will keep the starting job, quote me on that, if it happens, if not then dont haha

Yep. Especially with the amount of subs that we do and the other cover/ballhawk safety we have on the field. Collins makes some mental mistakes from time to time (See Hester TD), but overall, he's a solid player and someone who can play cover one.

Like said before, you build your defense to your strengths, not the other way around. Bigby and Rouse both aren't great in coverage. They are pretty decent in run support, though. Asuming Rouse can actually tackle. You'll see that incorporated into the playbook some more.

Next to that, if he has to play deep zone, Collins will usually be there to back him up. And if he is alone out there, that usually means that we're blitzing and there shouldn't be any time to exploit one safety.

I'll take the few mistakes Collins makes any day of the week for the big plays he makes. He was downright awesome last year. If he gave up 3 TDs, so what? He gave us 3 TDs. Plus 7 INTs, which means he ended 7 drives right then and there. So yeah, we both like Collins. :thumbright:

And completely agreed you build your D to your strengths. Actually in real life, you build pretty much everything to your strengths. You work in the career field you're good at. You walk into the bar and hit on the best of the girls who's interested in you. If you got long fingers, you play the guitar, short fingers, the violin.

Our strengths on D appear to be disruption and confusion. It wasn't bend, but don't break like the crap we were doing last year.

I'm severely looking forward to Sunday's trouncing of the Bengals. I think game 2, we see what this D can really do.

As for Rouse and Bigby, both are solid when it comes to run support. Their only weaknesses are coverage, but with the amount of disruptive blitzing Capers does, I'm not too worried about them getting exploited back there.

Collins was facing an injury on 2 of those plays I believe. Collins doesn't get beat deep very often.

Rouse wasn't that great under Sanders. He will light it up under Capers. MARK IT DOWN!

like smith ... oh wait - we dont take free-agents ya forgot ;)
just use em for their 3-4 knowledge

ok maybe a little harsh ... but I agree; Im definately not convinced that rouse should be a starter (was was subpar last year and last I heard hes been injured quite a bit) - we got martin but he doesnt know our plays.

How come a team like philly when they have a player even down for just a few games they sweep right in and pick someone up garcia but if we do we look to the guy that was injured for awhile and didnt make great plays last year?

I'm playign devils advocate here - I want our D to be top notch so rouse better step up if hes going to play in the best secondary in the NFL.

TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3

Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced
Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work
dfosterf (27-Aug) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n
