Lughead Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Remember back in the good old days when we had a line backing crew that could pass rush like hell and drop back into pass coverage and run down Running backs? why is it that we dont do this more ? why must we keep the slow ones on the field ? I have not been impressed with Lavar yet. what a bust/waste.....emmons aint no spring chicken either, I have seen runnnig backs simply run right around him off a corner. I feel during the 2 week "vacation" we should work on getting the young LBers (blackburn,torbor,Wilkinson) on the field and start using them in blitz packages we need to start punching teams right square in the mouth . This will help our secondary also as long as a Lber can get in the back field or tie up a blocker and letting one of our DE's in and make the QB pull up and run or scrammble. We have relied on Osi and Strahan too much now we dont get any kind of a push at all once one team figures out how to stop them they all do and look how the last 3 games have gone.

I think all parts of the defense need to be looked at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nas Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 I think all parts of the defense need to be looked at. that maybe true but Lughead brings up a great point. Jakk is raising the same issue (although he's going after Strahan.. which I oppose). However, I think our young LBs should get on the field more.. especially replacing Emmons. Lavar needs more time on the field before we decide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 Tim Lewis needs to let Lavar unleash hell before we can decide whether he's a bust or not. Lavar Arrington/Coverage LB = Michael Vick/Pocket QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fringe Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 We've gone from being the Chicago Bears (who still have no offense) to the San Diego Chargers (who now play defense). While we used to need 10 points to win a game, we now need 34. This is not your daddy's New York Giants. All we need is a dome now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well we ain't gonna know what we have until Lewis calls a blitz for Arrington instead of dropping him into coverage on every play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
