If its a must win game and you have to pick who you want at MLB. Do you pick a healthy Lee or McClain
 
Love McClain. But assuming they both play the whole game but only one can play at a time, I'm taking Lee.

Looking forward to seeing both of them starting next year, or at least as long as Lee can stay healthy.
 
I think Ro is a larger build and better suited at MLB. I think Lee with his coverage skills could play SLB
 
My answer depends on who is in front of the Mike…

With a massive space-eating DT like Hankins: Lee
With Golden Cock: McClain
 
Thinking about the Eagles game at this point, hard to contemplate future hypotheticals with that reality looming. My next most relevant thought is to replace the roll of Tums that I went through last night before the stores close ahead of the holiday.
 
McClain, may not have the instincts of lee butt is twice the athlete.
 
McClain is a different kind of beast, he is single handedly changing the identity of the defense.
 
If health isn't a factor, give me Lee.

With the Eagles game coming up I can't help but remember the dominating performace he had vs. Philly last year.

Almost singlehandedly shut down Shady and was a force in pass coverage.
 
McClain. He's just more physical and better athletically. He gives the run defense a presence. Lee is more cerebral. I think that could translate well at WLB. I wouldn't be opposed to having Lee as the MLB in the dime/nickel.

Lee is much more instinctive and cerebral because he is not as athletic. Usually you would call what he does as veteran savy on guy that is in the twilight of his career. Ro is not as instinctive or cerebral because he has natural athletic talent. Ro does have instinct but he does not do things with perfection in mind because he is a man among boys. Lee has to try to 100% in positioning, and technique along with instincts to measure up close to a player like McClain. Both are very good players just different type of players
 
As soon as we switched to the Tampa 2 Lee should have been put at WLB, yes even before we got McClain. Now it's a no brainer.
 
I haven't read the the other posts but if it's against a running team Mcclain if it's against a passing team Lee
