    Top Defensive End Tandem?

    It may be homerism, yet i love the DE tandem of Justin Tuck and Osi Umenyiora. I don't see any other tandem coming close besides maybe Minnesota's just because of how dominat the DT's are.

    Your thoughts?

          Not really a D End tandem, but Freeney and Mathis, Tuck and Osi are a close second.

            Maybe its just me, but whenever i watch the Indy games Dwight doesn't do shit. Mathis is usually beast as hell, but Dwight is on and off. Osi and Tuck seem to be more consistent and the safer pick imo.

                Jags game , 11 seconds to go , Jags on the Colts 16 . Dwight Freeney Sacks David Garrard and the clock runs out for an important win

                Enough for you?

                Ps. This was more of a great moment than evidence

                  That was probs a great game for you guys, but i still think that Osi and Tuck are better. Both are young and dominat, and imo will cememnt themselves as the best DE tandem this season.

                    Also Freeney had 10.5 sacks last season while being constantly doubled with no DT for the oline to worry about

                    Unlike NY where the whole D-Line is a pass rushing threat

                      Well Freeney and Mathis both had 10+ sacks last season . Considering most teams pound the run on Indy its hard for them to get alot of sacks . We have NO defensive tackles unlike the Giants

                        homerism: Seymour/Warren with Green off the bench.

                          Osi is not really a huge threat, he had one huge sack game in 2007 but then slowed down for the rest of the year.
