It's Boomer and Geo. Mornings on the Fan, 1019 FM. My job is to try to get us to a championship. That's all I care about. Because remember, when they fired Tibbs, what they said in their PR statement that they put out, and that was we're all about championships. And I'm paraphrasing. We want to win a championship and the reason we've essentially fired

the coach is we don't think he can get us there. Listen to Boomer and Geo on demand on Apple Podcasts,

game that you believe will be sustainable, even though this time

a year tends to be misleading. It just is year in and year out. It is clearly a result of they

just don't do much in the preseason. They don't play a lot. They don't hit a lot. As Joe said,

this is pretty much for the first couple of weeks in extension of the preseason. But did you see something good or bad that you think

will be something that continues? And what you saw Sunday will be what you continue to see

the rest of the year.

So I'm going to mention something, and then it's going to lead into something that didn't

happen, but I think will happen.

So I think when you're a good tackling team in week one, that's a really good sign

for the season. You tend to be at your

sloppiest and worst as a tackling team defensively early in the season. They were

exceptional Sunday tackling. By the way, everywhere across the board, all three levels

up front where they have, I think, more versatility than we thought

they would have, maybe even more depth. They have, you know, obviously still a guy that is the

most trustworthy guy on the team in Bobby Wagner. They don't let them come off the field.

And then I thought the back end, it was a

massive change from last year. I think what came out of Sunday is, for me, they're going to be a

good tackling team, which automatically means they'll be better defensively than they were last year.

So that is what I think I can take out of the opener and feel pretty good, won't let me down
