Locker is going to get better. How much? Not sure. But I'm sure either of those guys can burn KJ in coverage

And we still have KJ.

Not gonna matter when the Texans defense is putting their QB on their asses...
It's the teams with multiple receiving threats that we seem to struggle against like when we played New Orleans.
we will get a sack every single pass play of every single game. They have a need to be worried....
I don't like how a lot of people are poo-poo'ing the WR talent just added to the Jags and Titans.
Do their QBs lack? Yes. But it takes one well-placed pass to Wright or Blackmon and they could hurt you really badly. Like "take it to the house" badly.
And let's not even talk about if that well-placed pass is against a certain CB in the back of the end zone.
I understand we're proud of our guy in the 1st round here. But let's not get drunk on our Kool Aid just yet. Use moderation.
Our team didn't struggle against New Orleans because they had more receiving threats than Baltimore, we struggled because Darren Sproals is a motherfah@^**
There was that one drive where Kareem refused to play up on his man, but other than that, they just took advantage of an overly aggressive defense.
It's very possible that Adams took Wright just to piss off Houston. They could have taken a guard to block for Chris Johnson.
Just curious, what's the knock on Wright?

Not if they're on their backs looking at the clouds (or the roof of Reliant stadium as the case may be).
The additions of Blackmon and Wright to the Jags and the Titans will worry our secondary as much as the addition of Mercilus will to their OL and quarterbacks.
I think part of there strategy was to keep them from going to Houston and them having to worry about two big weapons.
No shyte ..... talk about snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.so this thread should be merged into my Pessimist thread?
I'll poo poo Wright and Gabbert all I want. I've stated before that Wright as a prospect is not what I wanted in the first round. It's going to take more than one good pass from Gabbert to Blackmon to beat the Texans.
And you could be wrong in your draft eval, too.
None of us know. But what I know is that there's too much confidence going on around here right now.
No games have been played yet, but our rivals are trying to add WRs that will give them a better shot vs our defense. That should cause some level of caution for us. Not fear. Just caution.
The funny thing is I think this thread nailed half of it.
We don't need to worry about our division. Yes, the Jags got Blackmon, and the Titans have Britt and Wright now. But we have a stout defense that can handle dynamic WRs (see Bengals games with AJ Green) and WR duos (see Falcons game with White and Jones.)

I'm really interested in seeing how our defense performs against teams like New England and Green Bay, when perhaps a pass rush may need to be a step faster because the quarterback has so many options to go to.

We only won one more game than the Titans did last season.The funny thing is I think this thread nailed half of it.
