FWIW, LZ appears dubious of the super bowl crack from Kollar. In the comments to his post, several bring this up and he responds that he and John Harris were only a few feet away the whole time and neither heard this comment from Kollar.

I've seen a much more aggressive defense this last 3 days. The LBs are moving towards the line at the snap. The defense is playing in the backfield.

I know that statement is concerning to some, but don't let it. In a real game, our offense would run straight at the teeth of the defense. Which is a concern, if the opponent splits the LBs the RB has a long way to go to get to a weak link (our safety).

It looks like 8 in the box is going to be a norm.

I like the quickness Adibi showed today working the inside run, and also Diles was spotted limping.

I got to watch Caldwell today, and he looked like a rookie going against our 39 year old DT. Caldwell was stood up and pushed, but recovered quickly and was able to get anchored.

One off season should help him. I am hoping to see some progression by the end of camp.

I wanted to mention, I have really like what I have seen of David Gibbs. He is intense but he talks to the guys. Also Kollar has been impressive. I like the one on one coaching both are doing during drills.

It appears one of the items that Kubiak was not happy with was the defense's knockout hits. He said he wants the kind of things on Sunday, just not against each other. "We have to be smart".

Mario scared me when he jumps on Moats' legs to get a fumble. Then the pileup ensued, I was glad no one got hurt.
