June 26, 200817 yr comment_41056 Since we will have a new LT (Williams)and a new RT(Tait) what teams DE do you think will give them the most problems this year? Colts =Mathis/Freeney Panthers=Peppers/Johnson Bucs=Adams/Douglas Eagles=Parker/Cole Lions x 2 =Devires/White Falcons=Abraham/Anderson Vikings x 2 =Allen/Edwards Titians=Kearse/Vanden Bosch Packers x 2 =Kampman/Jenkins Rams=Little/Long Jags=Spicer/Hayward Saints=Grant/Smith Texans=Weaver/Williams Report
June 26, 200817 yr comment_41061 Almost all of them! (Other than the Lions...) Something tells me Peppers is going to be a beast this year...just a gut feeling. Since we will have a new LT (Williams)and a new RT(Tait) what teams DE do you think will give them the most problems this year? Colts =Mathis/Freeney Panthers=Peppers/Johnson Bucs=Adams/Douglas Eagles=Parker/Cole Lions x 2 =Devires/White Falcons=Abraham/Anderson Vikings x 2 =Allen/Edwards Titians=Kearse/Vanden Bosch Packers x 2 =Kampman/Jenkins Rams=Little/Long Jags=Spicer/Hayward Saints=Grant/Smith Texans=Weaver/Williams Report
June 26, 200817 yr comment_41062 I am not so much worried about the OT combinations, so much as simply teams w/ upper tier RDEs who will matchup w/ Williams. DEs like Freeney, Kearse and Allen pose a threat to the very good, veteran LTs, and a rookie is likely to need help. In general though, the type of DE I worry about w/ Williams is one who has both power and quickness. Williams is more of a finesse LT, and while he may have some trouble w/ the elite (Freeney) I think will be better matched up w/ pure speed, edge rushers. But those who have power to go along w/ speed are the type that concern me. To be honest, more than DEs, I worry about DTs. We have no idea who our LG will be, but whoever it is doesn't bring a load of confidence. Garza is okay, but not great, and Kreutz has not been playing at an elite level for a few years. We are likely to provide help on the left for Williams, which means our interior needs to handle their own, but may be unable in more than a few games. Report
