YDS/ATT.........3.9 (3RD-TIE).......4.1 (8TH TIE)% 3RD DOWN MADE.....10TH..............14THThe Stats show the consistency of Bears D rankings led to GREAT PPG ALLOWED of only 18.6 good for 4th best in the NFL. Shows how bad Trebinsky really is....to have a solid defensive group performance like that, and still miss the Playoffs.....no wonder the Bears brought in Nick Foles for 2020.But back to our new OLB Leonardo di Floyd.....with Akiem Hicks out for most of the year (did I mention Hicks hails from Regina, Saskatchewan, CANADA???!!! ).....with a stalwart like Hicks out and the Bears Defensive Rushing stats still very solid, ya gotta think that Floyd was just more than a pretty face on that stellar Bear D, no?I think Staley, as Floyd's Positional Coach in Chicago saw something he really wanted in his first ever D he is fielding. I think Fowler was solid.....but over-rated and a guy who disappeared in some big games. Mathews could not set the edge.....and BTW remains without an NFL landing spot as an unsigned FA so far. Weddle was always a step too late.......so JJ III, 2-Year-vet Rapp, Burgess and Fuller will be better than Rookie Rapp, Weddle, Marquis Christian, and NRC in my view.The big question mark for me is ILB and replacing Cory Littleton's 2019 production! I am hoping Staley moves Natrez Patrick back to his original Georgia Bulldog position of ILB and lets Patrick compete with Kiser, Johnston, Reeder et al.We'll see soon enough 2 by BobCarl 3 years 10 months ago Total posts: 4296 Joined: Mar 08 2017 LA Coliseum Superstar Excited about Rams defense POST #29 ramsman34 wrote:Littleton's production will be divided between players who will be maximized by scheme, I believe.I'm leaning towards your thinking.

Rookie coordinator, lost there 2nd best pass rusher, no one at ILB has starting experience.They gave 10 mil a year for a guy who's sack total has went down every year and last season had 3.We are to believe the defense will be better? Wade Phillips couldn't do it and we are supposed to think a rookie coordinator will?
