missing on D

[MONTREAL BOY]

I think we are missing nasty players on D .I't looks like loosing doesn't faze them. And i think thats parcells fault. What do you guys think

 

[The30YardSlant]

People just don't understand how much we miss Greg Ellis and Dat Nguyen. Bradie James just doesnt seem to have command of the defense like Dat did and Singleton isnt even in Ellis' stratosphere

 

[D-BOI99]

I think we drafted a bunch of nice guys who don't have leadership skills. So yes its bills fault for this debacle on defense.

G.R.O.Z please

 

[MetalHead]

Merriman,that is who we are missing.

 

[4miler]

Might as well throw Glover in too.

Ellis, yes. Nguyen? Not really. James is playing pretty poorly, but I don't think we'd be much better with Nguyen at the position.

It's pretty sad how Ayodele can come in learn a completely new position and has already clearly outperformed his fellow ILB Bradie James, who supposedly is the leader and ideal ILB. I'm not breaking down coaches film like Jaws or dont know what their responsibilities are. But just by watching and rewatching the games, Akin makes more plays and disrupts more plays in a week than James does in a month.

Then you didnt pay attention in Dat's time here. He wasnt physically gifted, but he adjusted the defense as well as any MLB in the game.

Yeah, I watched him. I was a big fan, too. That doesn't change the fact that he wouldn't be much better than James at ILB in the 3-4.

He did better last season in the 3-4 than James has this year.

 

[theogt]

LOLZ! He played 6 games. He may be better than James, but that isn't saying much.

[D-BOI99]

So then both of them should retire.
