I'll take the smothering defense we had in 2021 for 200, Alex.

I'm 49. I care deeply

Yup my guess is 90+% of teams would consider Helle an upgrade to what they currently have.

Give it a few games! Maybe our D is a grower, not a shower.

Is 20-0 with an average score of 60 to -5 too much to ask?

Other defense are free to suck, but the Bombers O and D both need to be dominant.
I don't ask for much.

I hear the DLine coach is showing promise.

Remember last year when they kept trotting out Corcorran and most of us were screaming for the team to field Cobb?
I really hope Clercius gets a chance to take a big step forward this year. His ceiling is just so much higher.

Even when they win they will always suck so there’s that comforting thing to lean on.

In defense of defenses, I think some, I repeat some not all, of it might be the advantage the league is giving to the offenses e.g. limiting the holding calls allowing qb’s to run thru their reads.

As always its both MOS and KW. Booch outlined several MOS questionable decisions. GC has mentioned that there are several guys KW didn't sign due to $ and JBR mentioned that our US scouting is subpar which ultimately falls on KW. I'll throw in Wade because he's ultimately responsible for MOS+KW.

Our db’s obviously did not play at all where they need to be and football being the ultimate team sport our dline also allowed old man levi to run thru his reads with ease even wheelchairing his way on a 15 yard scamper of his own. ugh. Oh and our linebackers, I really miss having a dominant middle linebacker seems like an eternity since we did.
Gametape review is going to be fun for all.

So yeah the total passing numbers weren't huge... but the troubling part is that whenever Hamilton tried to pass, it was there. Pitch and catch with wide open guys all night AND run game whenever they wanted it too. Just totally unprepared to play on D. Everyone making the comparison to the Jim Daley era defense is spot on. It was that kind of smelly bad.
Lucky for us the Hamilton D was almost as bad so the score wasn't a total blow out. Offense looks a lot better than last season already.

Or tighten up their D to assist in winning more than they lose.

And unacceptable if you have high expectations of our defense.
And another example of MOS needing to be better with his challenge flag in how he uses it and what he focusses on.
