Good to see he is up in weight, since so many people were worried about that. If he can eventually get to a solid 260 you've got prototypical 3-4 OLB size. I have a good feeling about obo scho this season, the same good feeling I had about CC when he had to fill in for Antonio Smith after he departed. I am predicting 8.5 sacks this season.


Don't let me down scho!

If he only gets 8.5 sacks he better get 45 QB pressures, because those sack totals aren't getting the defense to where Horton preditcs this D can be.

If you expect a guy that is about 3-4 games ahead of a rookie when it comes to playing time to step in and get double digit sacks at a notoriously hard position to adjust to you are probably setting the bar too high. Eight 3-4 OLB's (more like 7 because Shaun Phillips got more than a third of his sacks versus us) notched double digit sacks last season. I am not expecting 12+ sacks from such a young player, but 8.5 would be very respectable. We have a team that can pressure the QB from several different positions, so Scho will not have to shoulder the pass rush load all by himself.

Love the confidence!

Yup, seems like a good kid with a great work ethic. Really looking forward to seeing his play this year.

 

[BullheadCardFan]

Looking for big things from Schofield this year. Would be huge if he can become one of the pass rushers we need.

 

[Jetstream Green]

I like the draft pick when we got him and confident he will be good, don't know about getting that many sacks but there is a strong possibility he can do it.

 

[O]

I like his moxie.

 

[PACardsFan]

Great pick by Cardinals. I'm excited to see him play this year!

 

[Bert]

Very excited about Schofield this year! Stay healthy big man and get it!

 

[Stout]

Don't jinx him!

 

[O]

Don't jinx him!

Sorry, I thought it was implied.

What do I think of him? I'll just quote Jack Horner with one word change.
"I got a feeling that behind those [cleats] is something wonderful just waiting to get out. "

 

[Shzm13]

Lets see if he can prove it on the field. The fact we're getting excited over a quote like this just shows how badly we missed football. lol

Maybe we should have him tackle Rollergirl a few times to see what he's got.

What's wrong with talking about a guy who a lot of us feel is a key player on our defense for 2011? I'm excited about him because not only was he touted as a 1-2nd round talent before his injury he rehabs and comes in his rookie season and gets a sack vs Dallas and another vs SF. You can't prove it on the field any better than that for AZ fans.

Schofield, DanWilliams,DWashington,Toler,PP7,Campbell,Acho,DRC(maybe)

We have the potential to have a really good defense for a long time. Please let it happen just ONCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Then we should designate whoever the QB is we're facing that week as Rollergirl.

I'm hoping for that as well, but I like my koolaid with a little bet less sugar.

What more do you want than a rook who one week busts up a Cowboy QB and the next week busts up a 4and9er QB? Thats some sweet kool aid.
