Ware was a huge liability today

[wick]

It's obvious the transition from DE to OLB is not going to be as smooth as hoped for Ware. He was killing us by not containing on the outside edge. He's going to make some good plays to go with the bad, but today was what Parcells was referring to when he advised not to put Ware in Canton just yet.

well we won and ware doesnt know what he is doing yet...just think when he does

 

[Cbz40]

If I'm not mistaken Ware was in the ball game on the last drive.

 

[JakeCamp12]

He is a rookie, this defense is going to struggle at times all year long....be patient, and when the game slows down for Ware, he is going to be a beast...

Where are these people coming from? Ware a huge liability?

...that what Rookies are - liabilities. The fact that Ware is trying to reduce his liability issues on the field means that BP thinks he brings more positives than negatives to the team.

I thought he was a liability on the first drive (getting blocked out of the play, giving up runs to LT), but got better as the game went on. Had good pressure at least 4 times.

All in all, he did okay for his first pro game

 

[Rick_Deckard]

If we can win games while he and the rest of Tuna's Ten learn the pro game we are in for some good years.

Yeah huge??? How about all the QB pressures. Was he a liaibility there too?

Where are they coming from? Ware was getting it together. He was not that big of a liability. He will have some growing pains. Im all good w/ that. Let him grow. He had pressure a few times in the game.

a rookie just starting, just like pettit(who i picked to start the season as the RT) struggled, by the end of the seaosn there going to be great

 

[Juke99]

Honestly, wick is right...Ware was not effective vs the run.

Not a huge concern because it's a new position for him.

But when Ogbogu was in, the held the point of attack much better.

I'm not really concerned...the kid will put on weight and muscle over the next few years and he'll be fine.

ware did nothing wrong in my book he pressured brees and i don't believe it was his job to contain the outside because every play it seemed that bill had him pinch the inside so he did okay

 

[scottsp]

This has been warned against for a while. Parcells spoke of this very thing last week. Ware is going to have problems. These are the growing pains. But God help the opposition once his head stops spinning and is able to play fast.

Right now, he's not there. But I think it's just a matter of time.

 

[bobtheflob]

I'll agree that Ware had some trouble containing the outside on the run, but he is a rookie in his first game against the best running back in the league.

Agreed. He got abused on the first drive. Third and 6 and they run right at him and get the first down. He was getting sucked inside nearly every play.

And I agree that he got better as the game went on. He'll be outstanding soon.

Exactly. Troy even said it. He needs to contain better and not get drawn inside so far. He worked his way out of doing things like that at the half. He finally started gettting outside faster after taking on the block.

YOU ARE CORRECT, WHAT A TOTAL AND UTTER WASTE OF A DRAFT PICK...WHAT WERE JERRY AND PARCELLS THINKING!!!! GOD WE SUCK!!!

 

[JackMagist]

Ware did exactly what I expected from him. He was good on the pass rush and poor on run defense. It's really no surprise. But with Burnett being out I think it will actually be good for Ware because he will be forced to play on run downs as well and not be just a pass rusher. From that he will learn to defend the run and become a more complete player.

 

[PaEagleHater]

Liability? hell our whole defence last year was a liability. How many times didn't he contain the outside? I saw it too, I am sure it will be pointed out, and i am sure he will learn. I did see Henry, and he earned his money today...
