How do you know that if he's asked almost exclusively to rush the passer? Maybe he's not asked to play the run or drop back in coverage much. Remember, SD's scheme was different than what was run here the past two years.BouncingCheese;1511560 said:But Ware is actually decent against the run and Ware can ocassionally step back in coverage, aspects of Merrimans' game I would not consider him good at.
I don't watch enough SD games to know what he's deficient at any particular thing. I just find it interesting that people are willing to bash what Merriman was told to do in SD when Ware will probably be asked to do virtually the same thing.
I'm sure those that indulge in Ware/Merriman comparisons will somehow find something to debate next year now that SD's old DC is the 'boys HC, especially if Ware doesn't get 17 sacks next year.I don't really like the comparisons between Merriman and Ware; can't we just enjoy that Dware is playing well for us and stop all the hatorade, regardless of Merrimans' supposed steroid abuse?
I think the people that really wanted Merriman are the ones who are always on his case; but I don't blame Merriman because he wasn't the GM who decided to pass on him Jerrah was.
