Anybody else find it ironic that the year we go to a three man front, we have more dept on the line than we've had since the early 90's? This Pepper Johnson kid keeps making plays, Ratliff has been disruptive at times, Canty is looking like a 4th round steal and Spears is going to be a beast. That's not even counting dependable vets like Ellis, Glover and Ferguson. We have the potential to be a really good defense. They’ll give up some plays but unlike last year, we have the "catalytic" elements to make plays also.

Another think to look at: when somebody makes a play, be it in the secondary or up front, you have three or four guys jumping up and down and patting him on the head. That's a defense that’s developing a swagger and feeling good about themselves in the process. Now it may be a different story when they get hit in the mouth for the 1st time...we’ll see. Right now I'm feeling good about this unit.

Bring on the Chargers…
