SD_semro Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 What about a dominant DT like Rodrique Wright or Jesse Malhoena (or something) or that massive DT at Oregon I think any of these guys could help us stop the run in the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwing Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 TE are not a focal point of thes offense. Unless we change the design of our offense, the TE will have little impact. We must stop the run and execute in the red zone----it is a plan and simpl as that!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SD_semro Posted October 24, 2005 Report Share Posted October 24, 2005 Great point i think we need a monster DT by draft or Free Agency. Are there any big DT free agents this coming year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heath Miller ate us up...he was WIDE open almost all day long... I was also believing that our front line could do the job but I'm jumping on with the rest and I believe we need a couple "PLUGS" up front...we definately need a couple physical wide bodies... we definately need Madieu back and someone better to compliment him.... [/quote] You have got to ask yourself "Why did the TE eat us up?" Well, it is cuz we have to put everyone in the box to stop the run. This gives TE's an advantage as the lbers will be late in filling the zones---cuz they are playing the run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miller had time to drink a beer in the end zone and sign an autograph or two while waiting for Ben to throw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] exactly....maybe I didn't explain it well enough...I just think a better quality tight end can be "worked into" Bratt's offense which would help us converting those 3rd and shorts....4th and inches...all that short yardage WE HAVEN'T BEEN GETTING...maybe get that touchdown when we are in the red zone instead of a field goal.... of course stopping the run is first priority...I'm just saying, I liked the dude, I wish we would have drafted him...maybe we don't need a TE but the good ones sure seem to help other teams when they need it most...we usually wind up punting the ball...maybe Chris Perry will be the answer...let's hope so!!
