No one cares Mosley signed with the fins?

1,947 DT snaps last year between 5 DTS (Suh,Fairley,Reid,Flu,Mosley)
45 snaps a game for Ngata (9 less per game than Suh). Ngata did that last year in a tougher 3-4.
40 snaps a game for Walker. Matches non-motor Fairley. If Fairley (who gets gassed all the time) can play 40, Walker can play 40.
18 snaps a game for Reid (he average 7 as a rookie)
18 snaps a game for Wright. Austin said he'd be a 20 snap per game guy the day they drafted him.

1,944 snaps compared to 1,947 last year

Now if Reid or Wright earn more playing time, it comes from Walker's snaps.

Ansah,Walker,Wright/Reid,Jones is still a good pass rushing Dline even those 9 snaps Ngata is on the bench compared to Suh.

This Dline will have more sacks, hits and hurries in 2015.

Ngata played 47 snaps per game in 2013, 50 snaps per game in 2012 and 52 snaps per game in 2011. If the scheme is easier on his body, I could see 50 snaps a game. 4 less per game than Suh had.

fun fact. The top rated PFF rated pass rush team. 2014 Baltimore Ravens. Ngata was on that team with a +9.3 pass rush grade.

Lions ranked 8th by the way in 2014 per PFF pass rush grade as a team.

There's your problem right there. NOBODY is coming in and being the next Suh. Again, you guys have already set yourself up for failure.

As Lions fans we've learned from the best!
 
The Dline is coming in to 2015 upgraded. Ngata is close enough to Suh and the DTS 2-4 and DEs are upgraded.

I am hoping you're right......but like most everything else you say.....I don't think you are.

We went 11-5 and had a top defense. I was the one who said that.

What I say happens.

Reid year 2, Walker for 16 over Fairley for 7, Wright is more talented and a better pass rush skill set than Mosley.

Ansah and Jones year 2 in system, Webster year 2 more talent than George Johnson. Taylor and Tapp year 2 in the system. Wootton upgrade over Fluellen.

Ngata good pass rusher, can play 45-50 snaps per game compared to Suh's 54, Ngata a better run defender and teams will clearly have to double Ngata.

I'm right. As always.

Nah. You enjoy the pain and suffering. No other way around it. Ngata isn't Suh, Walker/Wright/Reid will not be Suh either. The sooner you realize this, the better. But I don't think you want to realize it lol.
 
We brought pressure on 35% of opposing QB drop backs last year. That can continue with our DT 2-4 and DE upgrades plus Tulloch back. Year 2 of the system.

Also our non-pressure coverage (65% of time last year (416 drop backs)) could improve too with year 2 of system and nickel upgrades.
 
Really......so Chris Greenwood is Richard Sherman, Suh is still a Lion, we made a deep playoff run last year AND had a top 5 offense?????

YES!!!!!!!

Injuries to offense line, Bush, Calvin etc. Refs in Dallas clealry. Suh was offered 17 per. I said they could keep him under the cap which they could. See Ngata's cap number higher than Suh. Suh got greedy but Lions still upgraded the Dline. Great move for Ngata.

And Greenwood as Sherman was a joke clearly. People are too dumb to realize that.

I'm 100% right on the 2014 Detroit Lions. And will be 100% right for 2015.

11-5 and top defense trumps all, since 11-5 when most said .500 or worse.

Like Hell!

You defended that Greenwood = Sherman shit forever. If that was a joke, the only thing any of us know about you, is never listen to ANYTHING you say.

Not like any of us do anyway.

I mentioned it in passing as a joke once and some douch nozzle put it in his avatar. He took my words out of context too.

You people have the worst memories
