Colin Jones in the slot...

S/T ace so I won't destroy him too bad but when he gets the double move on a slant he bites harder than a motherfuger. I'd like to see how Shaq performs in that role to be honest. We run a zone scheme so we can afford to give up speed for awareness.

 

And Shaq is still plenty fast...

Well hopefully Peanut will be back before too long, and we don't even have to worry about this.  But honestly, I doubt Shaq could do much better on guys like Cole Beasley and [gasp] Amendola/Edelman(?).  

 

Anyone else noticed that we ran our base 4-3 last night about as much as any time this season?  Teams LOVE going 3/4 wide on us, forcing us to drop a LB and play a CB.  I honestly can't remember a time where we had to get out of our base 4-3 as much as this year.  But this game we were able to keep Shaq or AJ on the field a lot.

I like Colin, but he shouldn't be playing nickel. Has struggles when he gets in, from the playoff loss last year to yesterday. I'd like to see Teddy Williams get some more looks. Cb is probably the one position we don't have a lot of depth and will have to add a draft pick and a FA.

I saw this same post after the Washington game. Bottom line, Jones is a backup for a reason. Once Peanut gets back, the problem is solved. Gettle does need to eventually address this though, because Bene is playing better outside than in the nickel IMO. and Peanut is a short term solution due to age and injury.

      Possibly playoff affectng news

      By Donald LaFell · Posted

      You would hope so. I’m confused why the sports world seems split on Bryce when he’s obviously not working out.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      So let’s do the reverse? Make everyone agree everything he does is a disaster? I also think the whole “gaslighting” is on the eye of the beholder. It went from he can’t avoid one single sack countered with he actually did that well Sunday (with data backing it) to a little breakdown of why he is so bad. People are going to have different opinions. I’m also not going to pretend this wasn’t happening Day one with this little QB.

      All this great stuff he has done, how often does he do it?  I have it at three or four games out of 14 where he was very good and then you get a drive here or a series there where there are some good things. Here is the gaslight part: everyone has put him on a curve with his first year the baseline, neglecting to understand how bad he was then. Even if he comes back twice as good, where does that really leave him? 25th ranked or thereabouts.     He had so far to go, and still does, it is a Major ‘settle’ to accept his play as worthy of giving him our future.  You want to settle when the Bucs have Mayfield, and the Saints have overtaken us at QB? We will be third in the division at QB. That is good enough for y’all?
