[QUOTE="SpartaChris, post: 449943, member: 1007"] I agree it wouldn't have an impact on Williams recovery or the **** poor tackling, but my feeling is losing Collins and replacing him with Peprah severely limited what we were able to do from a coverage and pressure standpoint. I don't have numbers to back it up, and could certainly be wrong, but for example, I feel like we didn't send Woodson on very many blitzes last season because he was needed in coverage. We also relied more on Sam Shields to stop the run, which wasn't his strong suit. We weren't able to get as creative as the season before because Peprah doesn't have nearly the same talent and ability as Collins. Ultimately I feel like losing Collins forced us to alter our defense and we just never recovered. I expect dramatic improvement this season though, though it's not hard to improve by leaps and bounds when you're a below average defense. I think Neal is on his last straw and is in a put up or shut up year, and I love that we brought in a lot of guys to see if anyone can bring pressure and get to the quarterback. I also love what I'm reading about our newer linebackers and defensive backs making dramatic improvements from year 1 to 2. There is definitely a ton of intrigue with this team. [/QUOTE]
