I definately think he gives us an advantage. GW will plan his defense around his players. We have a MLB change last year and Marshall isnt the best in the world at blowing up a gap and shedding a blocker, but he drops back into coverage alot. He drops deep. He puts in clemons as a situational rusher.

Lavar with one leg is better than most olbs in the league. I can't even speculate why he's not playing. Something is amiss. As a player, you have to deliver in practice, and as a coaching staff, if a player is trying, you have to do what you can to get the best players playing to their potential and facilitate communication. Coaching is communication.

Our Defense IS a bit shaky compared to last year. We're being eaten up in the short passing game and we don't quite stuff the run as great as last year, but the biggest thing is pressure. We're not accomplishing it in the games where it matters, so franklyl I dont care what people practice like, if LA can get the pressure in situations that we need, or take on 2 blockers so that other people can get pressure, you have to play the guy. Holdman is good, but he's not close to being the caliber player LA was and is.
