@bucsbits - exactly! But I do think Bowles likes to think of himself as the blitz guru and he’d prefer to have to create his own pressure over anythin...

@bucsbits - all good points. I was about the only one on here that said over the last two offseasons that edge was our biggest need. And that it would...

@bucsbits - the middle of our defense has gotten torched for a few years now. A lot of that is scheme.

I said a little earlier. We shouldn’t be so quick to retire LVD off. It’s scary to think of how this defense would look without him on the field. He s...

@donkey_hunter - I don’t disagree, that’s if he is hard headed and continues to just blitz. Then you don’t need studs. Just bring enough guys that som...

Youre exactly right. Don’t worry about what anyone else says in these posts. I’ve said for 3 years that Bowles scheme is done and figured out. Coachin...

@badabingbucs - how is Coen not ready because of last night? First, our offense only got 7 possessions the whole game because our defense couldn’t get...

@bucsbits - but that’s not going to change Bowles’s scheme. Why bring in a stud Edge player when you blitz almost 60% of the time. Then it’s more abou...

@kermit56 - the problem is Bowles truly believes he can make a defense work with lesser talent at edge and corner. It’s the basis of his scheme and wh...
