Ellis and Bryan..

[Prov401]

Seriously, at this point, Chris Ellis, and Copeland Bryan are constantly getting pressure when they're put in the game. It seems they are always hyped up, and near the football. Yea, they're working against the 2nd stringers and what-not, but they still have to run/swim/spin around 6'4 320lb tackles no matter what. And they are both doing it on a consistent level. Judging by these few games, I would love to see Ellis start over Schobel, and Bryan start over Kelsey. I know it isn't going to happen, but these under the radar ends are impressing me far more than our starting DE's.

This has to be the last season for Schobel and Kelsay.

That's what I thought before Kelsay got extended.

Lol yea I hear ya.... What am I thinking?, He's playing like Bruce Smith out there. 2 tackels in 3 games. No sacks... and I'm guessing the 'pressure' your talking about, is the patentent Schobel-esque, 'let me get there as soon as the QB releases the ball, his 9th second into the hike', tactic he's used the past 2+ years. And no, I didn't say replace Schobel with Bryan, I said replace the 2 tackles Schobel has, with the constant intesity, passion, and pressure that Chris Ellis brings to the table. You know, the guy with 15 tackles, a sack, and a knack for not getting owned.

Re: Ellis and Bryan..

im sure copeland bryan would be just awesome against an actual start LT in the league.. the coaches are just starting schobel because he makes more money..

I get your point to a degree but I would be shocked if Schobel gets 5 sacks this year. So what are we really losing at this point?

Copeland Bryan actually looks better against the run. Schobel is in pass rush mode on every play. He isn't physical enough out there to watch the play. Copeland Bryan is winning his battle and being able to adjust to the play as it develops.

Re: Ellis and Bryan..

I cant believe its Ellis and Bryan that are battling out for the last DE spot while Denney and Kelsay are safe.

If either one of these gets cut for 2 DEs who do absolutely nothing then we deserve to be a losing team once again.

If Ellis and Bryan continue to play well in these last two games, I have a feeling either Denney or Kelsay will get dumped. Maybe I'm mis-remembering, but I thought the coaches have done well at keeping players who perform in preseason. Heck, Copeland Bryan had one very good game against Detroit's second and third-stringers last year and made the cut.

Yeah but this staff has some sort of attachment to Kelsay and Denney. Got a bad feeling they wont be able to cut one of the Vets.

Yeah, it's certainly possible. Here's hoping they give Ellis and Bryan a chance. Up to this point, they've certainly earned it.

Re: Ellis and Bryan..

Kelsey or Denney, one is a goner. Bryan has played his way onto this team. Has Denney even played?

I know, right. I did see some run plays that ran right around him when he was supposed to have outside containment, so I know he has hit the field, lol.

Also, the bonus is that Ellis and Bryan are also playing solid against the run. So there is no excuse to keep either of those vets cause they play better run D.
