Fujita has been dissapointing so far. Fujita repeatedly got beat to the corner. Burnett played well in his limited time, I think its time Burnett begins to take over the starting role

I was more watching the secondary last night on D, and the D-line......Fujita is a solid player though, if he had an off game last night, it certainly wasnt good timing, but he's played well for us.

Burnett didn't play enough to get an overall opinion. and, he didn't play enough to make any impact plays.
BUT, he did look quick and decisive. So, I thought it was encouraging..... kind of a sense that maybe the guy can make some plays.

I don't know just how much Burnett played but I remember him showing up in the play ON TIME a lot more than Fujita. James wasn't great the entire game but he at least appeared to have a clue of what was going on around him, unlike the other starting LBs.

He definitely seemed to be shedding blocks much better than anyone else.

Fujita totally blew a coverage on LJ Smith when he went in motion one play. He realized about 3 seconds late what was going on, and he sprinted across the field, but he left LJ Smith wide fricking open and McNabb took a 2 step drop and fired it to him before Fujita could get there.

At least I think it was Fujita.

I thought that was Shanle, but, I was praying so hard.....I might have missed it!

I'm not ready to throw Fujita overboard at all, he has played well for us since we acquired him and provides a pass rushing threat Singleton did not. That being said he did have a poor game against Philly, getting sealed inside alot which allowed big eagle gains.
Burnett still has alot to learn and playing him in limited roles with specific assignments is probably the best way to break him in until the game slows down for him, which may not even be this season.

Fujita appeared to have primary responsibility on TE coverage.

And IMO, That tight end for the iggles is one of the best in the league.

Given the assignment....I think Fujita did a pretty good job.

I like Fujita ,thought he has played well for us so far this season. Great trade for a sixth. Adds nice depth to our LB's . Does anyone know how long his contract is?

He did not have his best game but he has only been in our defensive system for a few weeks. He was not playing 3-4 in KC. He will come along as will Burnett.

I think Fujita has done a solid job so far at OLB in a new system. As for Burnett I see him competeing of the MLB spot next year with Shanle.

He's a free agent at the end of this year.

I dunno, Burnett dropped that dumb half shovel pass that McNabb practically handed him. Also saw Fujita make a good tackle in coverage.
