After watching the first two games I will say that losing Marcus Peters is by far our biggest problem. The D is giving up too many big plays.
not worried about the big plays by the raiders and chiefs necessarily but i think marcus peters is a huge loss on the backend especially with how intelligent and how good of a communicator he is (he and clark were basically co-calling the defence on the field down the stretch last year it seemed)
i think his loss does take away some of our ability to disguise pre-snap and be deceptive more generally from what ive seen so far
the axis of communication we had on the backend last year was amazing and that feels like the biggest loss this year with peters out
not that it's anything major but it does say a lot that wink handed peters the playsheet and let him playcall the defence from the sidelines in preseason in the 2nd half of one game after he came off the field
