Can he play corner?
hmm, not sure how much this will help but im happy the team isnt just lying over to die
A little bit is better than nothing. Edwards balled out for us his first stint.
I’ll never forget his two interception game against Matt Ryan.
Yeah I wanted to pick him up the second I saw he got cut let’s go
we’re getting the squad back together
Happy to see somebody who has played in the system
Nice to see him back but weird that he lasted like a day in TN
Haha what’s Ryan Smith up too these days?/s
This is all too familiar…
Next up, Sean Murphy Bunting?
Great move!
When he got released so quickly from the Titans I had a feeling he was coming back here.
We should be running 3-3-5, 3-2-6 a lot.
We are like his 3rd team in the last 10 days. Cant hurt at this point but I’m not expecting this dude to be like the old gravedigger days. Whitehead isn’t the same guy either.
hell let’s bring back vernon Hargreaves back too
Awj whitehead and Edward’s back together let’s go. Too bad we already have 2 good slot corners, but exciting either way
Doesn’t make me feel good about our shit pass defense.
We’re getting the band back together
I was hoping we’d sign him. Maybe it doesn’t work out, but he was solid when he was here and we really need more depth in the secondary.
Good low risk move but not sure it’s going to help much aside from potentially generating turnovers. He was never the best cover guy.
We need a linebacker that can move better than my grandmother (looking at you Britt)
I love Mike’s seagull from Finding Nemo cheer Mike mike mike Mike
Lombardi bound!
People criticizing the scheme even though Bowles has had this defense play at a top 10 level throughout his time here. In 2019, when Bowles arrived the defense struggled at first due to Bowles’ scheme being more complex. When everyone figured it out, we were near elite. We’ve had a lot of injuries and have been forced to play with a younger inexperienced defense. The younger players struggling to understand Bowles’ scheme makes more sense as a cause to our defensive struggles than a top 10 scheme suddenly being terrible. Bringing in a veteran that knows the system well is a smart move.
Bowles is a terrible HC, criticize him for that all you want, but the narrative that he’s an awful defensive mind is flat out wrong.
Cool, but we need pass rushers.
Now bring back SMB and everything will be full circle
Ok leave only Lavonte in the LB spot, bring Whitehead down in the box, keep Tykee in the nickel, and roll out AWJ and Mike as true safeties. When we get Dean back, a dime-nickel hybrid like that is our best chance.
Let’s go!
Edwards might not be as good as he used to be if he’s getting released by multiple teams.
