(S18) - PT1 - Defense wins Championships!

[run_CMC]

The Austin Copperheads’ D is large, powerful, and loves to get physical, and I can’t wait to watch it be slapped across the face of opposing defenses. What we lack in length (our cornerbacks don’t have the longest arm span ever) we make up for in girth. Our two defensive tackles have such an impressive radius that, even with average length, they’re able to intensely dominate the opposing QB, forcing him to evacuate the ball before he’s even able to enjoy himself back there in the pocket.

For real though our defensive line is a beast. The combination of Dick Wizardry, as well as recent trade acquisition Brayden Ennis and young draftee John-Caleb Bradberton, means that the Austin interior line will be a force for seasons to come. And of course, veteran defensive edge Grayson Kuusela, who hasn’t lost a step and is an impressive combination of speed agility and power, rounds out a very strong group. From the defensive line, I now move to the second level and the line backers, who are another young squad. Honda Edmond from the S17 draft and rookie Net Gaines from S18 mean yet again, the Austin defense is looking powerful for the future. And let’s not forget that absolute bum Dermot Lavelle Jr. He’s pretty okay on his good days I guess. (I love you dermot)
