No I didn't say GW has forgotten how to run a D. Has LaVar forgotten how to play football? that was the question. And the answer to that is NO!. Holdman may be a servicable LB but in no way is he the play LA is. Someone brought up and interesting stat about tackles and forced fumbles, sacks. Holdman has half as many as the others LBs and less than some of DBs. I havn't watched any gametape but if he isnt' getting the tackles on his side of the field, which most of the time is the weak side, with Carlos Rogers on that side, dont you think they are running more to that side. Like I said, I dont watch game tape but I would expect him to have more tackles and maybe a sack or two. Wasn't GW so excited when he got here about LaVar and how great he was going to be in this D. His "playmaking" ability and aggressiveness was going to be used more than it ever has. I do believe Williams was more excited about LaVar than anybody on the team. Greg has done a great job w/ this D and I am glad we are winning, and Holdman is filling in OK. But the weakside LB is suppose to be making more plays, more pressures more hits, and I havn't seen any of that out there. And this past game, they played zone w/ the back four and kept eveyone else at the line of scrimmage, shouldn't he have had more plays? or am I retarted?
