DEFENSE WINS

[Dodub]

Let’s go baby!!!!!

[thesack12]

Thank you!!!!

[arich35]

**** yeah Huff!! Worth the trade jus there

[CrimsonCrew]

It is not pretty, but to start this year, the name of the game is to win whenever and wherever you can. Maybe we can cobble something together against Arizona next week.

Love Saleh's aggressiveness there

[thesack12]

They kind of made it necessary themselves with falling off after the 1st quarter, but the defense is now 2-0 with closing out games this season with big plays at the end.

Haha.

Patterson said last week that we might need gallons of Maalox this season. But if the W's keep coming, I'm good with that.

I think that was just a 4-man rush. Huff just got off the ball there. Need Mykel Williams to develop those kinds of moves.

Defense was just okay. Gave up 100 yards to Kamara and the young DBs were shaky, though one of the illegal contact calls against #20 on the Saints last TD drive was bogus.

But I'm wary about how those DBs will perform in one on one coverage against better WRs and a more experienced QB. IN the first quarter, Green was playing bump and run and he was running with Olive and other Saints WRs but he didn't look back. I think he got one PI.

Matt Jones played great. But the pass protection was really good after the first drive or two. Pass blocking was much better than last week and the Saints didn't blitz that much.

Seems like the 49ers should have won this more handily though Rattler played very well too. Pass rush was missing until the 4th quarter.
