Bell and Clark vs the run

[slick325]

Sad that it wasn't addressed via trade or some other way. Bell is a Nickle LB not a starter at LB.

Clark, I'm undecided about.

After LVE was shelved, they played line backer with safeties and trash from the street. Clark might be decent if he isn't depended upon to be the guy...

Overshown would have been a beast and would have made Clark better.

Overshown would have been a beast and would have made Clark better.

Lol at people acting like Overshown wouldve helped, he's just another undersized linebacker

This was absolutely clear all game.

They get away with it when they get ahead of bad teams.

This is what happens when you depend on the mid rounds of the draft for your starters and arrogantly ignore free agency.

This is where Jerry and son outsmart themselves annually and are too full of themselves to ever realize it.

Look no further than that for the problem.

And Belichick isn’t coming to this mess, not that he is the answer.

This is not an exaggeration. They are both slow to react AND to the wrong hole.

- injury prone LVE was re-signed
- Team did not really pursue perennial pro bowl vet Bobby Wagner
- Team had no interest in All pro LB Roquan Smith trade ( 2nd and 5th rd picks)
- Overshown early ACL
- Rashard Evans was a bust signing
- Bell to LB conversion short lived
- Club lucked out with Shaq Leonard rejection

Clark should not be on the field starting.

 

[Robster8989]

A guy I like in the draft is Tommy Eichenberg from Ohio State.
Reminds me of Jack Campbell whom I liked last year (and playing great for the Lions).
Eichenberg is projected in the 3rd or 4th round, but could jump up like Campbell did last year.

That Scott McCurley guy who coaches the line backers is trash. Another crap hire.

They have a lot of crap hires.......started with Mike Nolan a few years ago.

This duo has to be the worst I've ever seen at LB defending the run. And this is not just simply a result of bad DT play. Watch them on every running play, They look like they have never been coached on how to run fit. Yes I know Bell is learning a new position. But this is the NFL! What are we doing??? This is the best the team can put together at LB?? They've had 10+ weeks since the LVE injury to fix the position. These guys make Ernie Sims look like Dick Butckus.

Cuz they are not linebackers. They are safety’s being misused

 

[JohnsKey19]

Just one example of a season full off *** moments at LB.

 

[Coogiguy03]

This is not an exaggeration. They are both slow to react AND to the wrong hole.

You'd be slow too if you were undersized

 

[Davidlee1973]

Dallas gets bullied cuz the defense is small.

Nothing placed out on the field yesterday wasn't just from yesterday. We saw the gashing and predictability against Buffalo. Nothing changed.
