Cut Poe

[darthseinfeld]

Dude is gassed. Right now he is a downgrade from what we got from Woods the last couple years. People talk about Snacks, but right now just going back to Woods would be upgrade

Frankly I don't any reason for him to be on the team

 

[HowardC]

Yeah he can't shed a block to save his life.

If it was up to me, Id cut him, bring in Snacks and play Gallimore on passing downs.

Gallimore may be a mess, but you may be progression

 

[FiveSuperBowls]

Agreed, Poe has been a disappointment and perhaps Nolan based his defense on the big man to produce

 

[Oz-of-Cowboy-Country]

Cut Poe and bring in Jamari Chisholm (an undrafted free agent from the Longhorns).

 

[MysteryIceGuro]

Cut the entire defensive line, how bout that?

 

[thunderpimp91]

It does create an interesting conversation. I noticed cleveland moved the line often today. They kind of remind me of our line a couple years ago with martin/fredrick in the middle who were just overall good athletes with great footwork. Im really curious if the big run stuffing DTs are going to be phased out of the game for smaller, quicker DTs who can move side to side.

There was a reason he was available for cheap yet people were excited when we signed him as if we got a steal.

 

[Plankton]

Poe takes a knee before the game.

And forgets to get back up when the game starts.

It's not just Poe - none of the defensive tackles are commanding double teams. This has led to the LBs having to take on too many blocks, which allows the opposing backs to get to the second and third level without much issue. And, the combo of Woods/Thompson are not great tacklers. Wilson is better than Thompson, but that's like being thin compared to Mike McCarthy.

Nope

 

[DallasDW00ds0n]

This man really offers nothing.

 

[John813]

He got his retirement money here. Just like Cedric Thornton

 

[ghst187]

The real winner here is Gerald McCoy....full years salary and no longer associated with this clown show...

 

[cowboyec]

just go with a 3 man rotation of Woods,Hill and Gallimore.

Poe hasn't shown me anything.
i liked the signing when we made it but i couldnt have been wronger.

You guys clamored for a fat *** in the middle who just took up blocks. Now you have it and you're mad that he's not commanding double teams and then also beating them and getting pressures/TCL. A guy we got for next to nothing. I think yall are confused about DT play.

This defense is trash, but Poe is exactly as advertised and exactly what you "wide body lovers" wanted. Now you're having buyers remorse. News flash guys, the entire defense is ***. One player ANYWHERE on this defense wouldn't make a shred of difference.

Bellychickens will be happy. He'll just load up on some maulers and run it right up the gut.

Gallimore should be splitting snaps at both tackle spots.

Woods plays about as many snaps as Poe, often together on the field...

Poe isn’t the problem but he is probably not helping much.
