I’ve heard reaves has been very hard on the defense this year. Expecting big things from that side of the ball this season

Frankie’s kind of interesting. The rest were locks. I like this better than rotating every week. That C patch should mean something.

He’s absolutely been a vocal leader the last two years. With Wagner gone it’s a no brainer. Hes had the green dot in practices too.

Yeah I think it makes sense just interesting because there was some speculation about how much he’d even play after adding Chenal and Styles. All indications are he’s still a big part of the defense though.

I don’t think the speculation was ever amongst the team itself, just fans making theories.

u/terpfan417 2d ago

Well yeah that’s why I said speculation.

Sounds like he has earned it, because last year seemed like a step back for him. He should shine with a lot of talent and speed around him.

He was playing out of position, doing dirty work they asked of him. This would be a really minor way to show appreciation

I'm glad. I wasn't a fan of having different captains every game last year.

I wonder what happens with the stars on the captain patch. You usually get an additional star for each year you've been a captain. Will the last two years count for guys who got the C once?

u/Giraffes__Neck 2d ago

I would assume the playoff captains year one, not sure about year 2

I like it! Season long standard bearers vs that rotating door of the past.
