Goal line defense played out of its mind tonight (merged)

[Fear Our D!]

That's right! Our starters were playing ferocious Defense tonight! Mad props to 30, 52, and 22. All made great plays and tackles. I'm so psyched to watch them in '07!!!!:point2sky

[One Shot]

:cheers:

They really gave us something to look forward to this season. Good show:logo:

[macnoke03]

Agreed! I am really excited about how the D has played. Now if only we could avoid this damn injury curse! :mad:

[GOSKINS_08]

Im very excited about our defense..They have played terrific this preseason.

[Vladimir L]

I have always thought last year was a fluke.

FEAR IT BABY!

['Skins_&_'Stons]

Rocky is going to be a pro-bowler! HTTR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Slacky McSlackAss]

Defense looked really good, pumped for the season. Heyer showed major strides today, and Collins had another solid game.

[No_Pressure]

Rogers should have had like 2 picks, but it was made up for by the fact that Rocky McIntosh appears to be a stud linebacker.

[Vladimir L]

Our safety and lb play are just too much.

[Vladimir L]

Also our corners are just too solid.

[dg28daman]

Rocky looked like how we THOUGHT lavar was going to be...he was all over the place.

[the burgundy and gold]

i agree, the defense was sick tonight. Everyone was flying to the ball, it was great.

[TXREDSKINS44]

I agree, the defense look great. It's exciting to see them play so well.

[TheDoyler23]

This defense has no intentions of being civil.

Big Grif didn't start,, Fletcher was solid (no mistakes) I can already tell in 2 games QBs are not throwing any where near ST. LL made a great play.. Andre Carter Developed some serious pressure in limited time... I honestly feel this Def team wll be the best one ever fielded under G Williams.


:dallasuck

[argentina_redskins]

Our 1st string defense has been amazing in these 2 preseason games! Only 6 points in almost a complete game?? (1 half in each game), that's simply amazing!

#30, 52, and 22


So we CAN draft. We just don't like doing it.

[Supreme Wu]

I forget the exact number, but the steelers 1st team offense had something like 6 or 8 goal-line plays in a row at one point and they were held to FG. Even our 2nd and 3rd string guys made a great stand at the end of the game. Last season we were giving up so many big plays that we didn't get to see many goal-line heroics, but tonight we looked sharp and you could see the frustration in the 'hard hitting' steelers when they couldn't punch it in over and over again, like they're used to doing. Rocky was all over the place in the red zone, he really did look like three guys wearing the same number. Only thing missing was an INT, but the steelers dont usually throw too much inside the 10

[The Rook]

I found this to be extremely important. So much so, that I didn't mind the penalty that gave Pittsburgh the new set of downs. It is what will happen in the season - good chance to practice against it. :thumbsup:

Goal line D. :security:








:helmet: The Rook

[ncr2h]

Yes, that was fantastic. Also, I think Reed Doughty (Daughty? I have no clue. Except I know how to pronounce it, unlike the announcers) really put himself ahead of Ade Jimoh in the battle for that last spot in the secondary. He was a big factor on the goal line. He and Blades were clogging holes like crazy.

[mistertim]

That was definitely awesome. I was at the game in sec 106 near the end zone when the Steeler's 1st string had that huge bunch of chances in the red zone and we stuffed them. It really was sweet. Rocky was everywhere. This kid could be something special. Ok, we lost...however we haven't allowed a single TD in the preseason so far. That isn't too shabby. All in all, our 1st string > their 1st string on both sides. I offered the Steelers fans in front of me a compass so they could help their team find the end zone. They were good natured about it...especially after they ended up beating us anyway. :laugh:

Capital Punishment for all offenders!

[argentina_redskins]

The goal line defense was simply amazing. The first string D held their starters up inside the 5 yard line for about 5 plays w/out giving up the TD. Then, later on the 3rd string D looked as sharp while not allowing the TD and just a FG.

[95southskinsfan]

Yes, that was fantastic. Also, I think Reed Doughty (Daughty? I have no clue. Except I know how to pronounce it, unlike the announcers) really put himself ahead of Ade Jimoh in the battle for that last spot in the secondary. He was a big factor on the goal line.

I agree Doughty and Blades played very well in goal line stand! And Doughty seems to always be around the ball!

Capital Punishment for all offenders!hhahaha thats classic :applause:

[Taylor 21]

Yeah tell me about it. No touchdowns allowed in the endzone.

[Ant15fromNJ]

Got to love the D!!!!!!

[SkinsFTW]

I honestly feel this Def team wll be the best one ever fielded under G Williams.

:dallasuck

Thats not even possible.

His Titans defense in 2000 was the #1 defense in the league. That's the same year the Ravens defense was so good and got them a SB win. I don't see how our defense could be better than that.

[skinsfan07]

Im very excited about our defense..They have played terrific this preseason.

yup. i can't wait. I hope they get back to that top 10 form.

[Area51]

Yea the D has been spectacular. Not giving up a TD is great. It's even more impressive because a lot of the times the opposing offense has had great field position. If not for the great field position, we probably wouldnt have given up so many field goals either.
