JackStroud Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Herzlich could not play MLBer in the Candian League Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMFP Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Herzlich really didn't show much. The sooner KP can get back so Fewell can run his 3 safety set, the better. Boley is hands down our best LB, and then it's just a bunch of dudes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gman329 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Agreed. Herzlich was lost. Again, Blackburn's C+ play looks like all pro to us compared to our alternatives. Still think an MLB upgrade is in order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackStroud Posted November 5, 2012 Author Share Posted November 5, 2012 I don't...........I think a 14-3 MLBer is a pretty good record Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treehugger Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Does Chase stop us going 3 'n' out from our own endzone twice in the 4th quarter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackStroud Posted November 5, 2012 Author Share Posted November 5, 2012 no but we dont get run over like a steam roller........also there was no one to call the defensive sets, and line up the D.................Herzlich just stood there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lughead Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I don't...........I think a 14-3 MLBer is a pretty good record What he is saying is that Blackburn wont be there forever. We certainly do need to upgrade the MLBer at some point especially when Blackburn is done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 LOL MLB UPGRADE.... We can't draft one. Don't have money to sign one. This is as good as it gets, I accepted this years ago and have been pretty happy considering we manage to win without one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sephiroth Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Chase is the best MLB we've got. He's a B- type guy, but you've gotta love his heart. Herzlich may not develop. We've needed a real, NFL calibur MLB for about six years at this point. But hey, what the hell, let's draft our sixth DE. Or fifth WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So glad we got Jernigan I thought he would slip right through our fingers, but we lucked out with him. Not gunna lie I was sweating bullets before we drafted him.

Bigblue25 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 I am pretty sick of TE's destroying us, or WR's on drag routes. We HAVE to draft a LB in the first round, and btw even Boley, pretty much sucks. He cannot cover and is weak against the run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herc Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 herzlich looked terrible. he's from BC though so it's all good. give him a new contract Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steitzenhaus Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 They are all pretty slow. Yeah. The position needs an influx of speed and athleticism. I know the focus of the defense has been on the line but with Tuck getting older and Osi likely elsewhere next season maybe that emphasis needs to change a bit.

Allstarjim Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 We missed both Rivers and Blackburn today. Boley is a good linebacker, bigblue25, I don't know how you can say that. The guy has been money all year and last year as well when he was healthy. I've never thought Herzlich was very good, but was hopeful he'd show something today. He didn't. He needs to play faster, and he may not have it in him. Overall, I thought the defense played pretty damn well, regardless. Just couldn't get the 'O' going at all today.

Treehugger Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Webster nearly, nearly had a perfect game on Wallace, until he fell down (I think Rolle actually tripped him) and Wallace ran for the TD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did a nice job on Wallace (got a break when Brown went out) but we are getting run on too much. Over 150 on the ground against us yesterday and what was alarming was the yards after contact. We were overpowered at point of attack, getting pushed back play after play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephiroth Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 While we're at it... our DTs could not have possibly sucked any worse. How many 8 yard runs up the middle have we seen the past few weeks? I thought Canty was supposed to be an upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Storm Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Webster nearly, nearly had a perfect game on Wallace, until he fell down (I think Rolle actually tripped him) and Wallace ran for the TD. Yep, Webster had the angle and Rolle or Stevie Brown cut in front of him and took both players out of the play by literally tackling Webster. The tackling yesterday was the worst I've seen out of the Giants. From Herzlich trying in vain to hold Redman out of the goalline with his fingertips to the constant "hit in the backfield, gain of 5+ yards" running plays they had ALL game and finally the Wallace touchdown where everyone was in slow motion and the only player who had a chance at making a tackle got tackled by his own player.

I thought Canty was supposed to be an upgrade. I'm not going to blame our DT's too much.....the linebackers are supposed to be attacking those gaps, not waiting to play "catch the running back" four yards beyond the line of scrimmage. I'm having a hard time remembering the last LB we had that could consistently shoot the gap......Antonio Pierce, maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
