I have seen a couple national guys on twitter who have stopped by practice say the defense looks really good. This could be some rust from Burrow, but the secondary got a massive upgrade in experience and demeanor that I think we are seeing the results early.
I have to chuckle when people are blaming the OL for the offense struggling when our DB's are draped on our WR's in 1 on 1 and 7 on 7 drills. Our DB's are just flat out winning.
As others have said, the D is usually ahead of the offense this time of camp. On top of that, the D is a mostly veteran unit. It has only 3 starters that are still on their rookie deal and no rookies with the 1's. Yesterday, the O had 7 guys on their rookie deals, including 3 rookies.
People get way too high and too low based on TC reports. How many training camp All Pro's turn out to be nothing during the season?
