Any linebacker will tell you in order to be effective you need to stay clean

Meaning defensive Tackles have to keep the Lineman off the linebackers

our defensive tackles get washed down allowing olineman to completely destroy our linebackers and its not too many lb’s that can get off the blocks of lineman its tough because linebackers are smaller these days

There are plenty of plays where the LBs are clean are just aren't hitting lanes. Jaylon seems to run away from open lanes.

I was told last year the talk in the building was that Matt Eberflus was going to be the first guy interviewed. It never happened. I was excited for him to come here as the head coach.

His work with the linebackers here in 12 when everyone was hurt was great then again in 14 and 15.

This guy has paid his dues and if the colts win a playoff game or two on the back of their defense he will end up somewhere as head coach...Maybe minnesota, Detroit, Jacksonville?

I've thought about Zimmer coming back, but Jerry choose Wade over Norv, so it isn't all about history together.

Aren't you glad they let this guy walk to hold on to Marinelli for one more year of the same?

Not sure why we always tend to go in the direction of names that have been here in the past and failed.

How about the next Sean McVay?

Let's find him....or is that too much of a conflict for Jerry's ego if he succeeds?

They are trying the "next McVay" already with Moore

Pretty much everyone here was because they had the new IT coach according to the cowboys twitter experts in Kris Richard.

many wanted garrett fired and Richard put in charge.

LOL! Agreed. Not my favorite, but traditions don't need a reason to have good taste. In the interest of transparency, this is the third bottle (of four) received from my ex as a birthday present, I guess its three years ago. My instructions were to drink one each birthday (she always was a cheap date).

Even as I'm using you as an excuse to drink, in reality I'm following the tradition set forth by the great matriarch. I've achieved the 66th level of life.
