I mean guys like Angelo Blackson who were underachievers elsewhere are suddenly having an immediate impact. And that goal line stand against the Niners was a real turning point.

I loved the addition at the time and love it even more now.

Zach Allen looks like a different player. I remember Bickleys reaction when he saw Allen in person:. He described him as smallish and doughy looking. He now looks much bigger and stronger and his quickness pops on tape.

I expect around 5-7 sacks from him and 60% of defensive snaps.

Blackson played well and made a few plays. Philips looked good as well and I expect he'll make some big plays soon.

It was only week one. I am glad we got a win but we were sloppy as to be expected. I think we have a lot of potential as we continue to improve.

Look I get people like Buckner's animated style on the sideline, but I think it is a bit ridiculous to say a few days of his coaching made Blackson good all of the sudden.

It doesn't have to be all about coaching. It could be just to dummy down his role so he could better understand it, or it could be he put him in situations where he could be successful.

Haven’t been this excited about some young beef up front in a while. Hopefully works out better than what I thought Alan Branch end Gabe Watson would be.
Or the andre wadsworth debacle lol
