Sherrod Martin

I would just like to point out that according to early reports, Sherrod Martin was benched in favor of Nakwho becuase of tackleing issues.

Martin lead the team in solo tackles Pass defenses and was tied with Luke for tackles. But hey the coaching staff cant be wrong can they?

Now was it that the secondary is better with martin or is it the the Eagles passing game sucks or a combo of both. But I have said it all damn year bench Nakwho and play Martin. Hes better in coverage and I have seen no issues with tackleing this season.

What does my fellow huddlers say?

One of many questionable personnel calls in my opinion. It was obvious after ATL that Martin should be the starter.

Also think Adams needs to cover KR and PR. Time to move on from early mistakes.

Also think Gettis should be on the field. Biggest, fastest WR that's not activated because of something personal with the coaching staff. As much as guys disliked Terrell Owens, he started every week. Ego can kill you some times. Or at least get you fired.

The only glaring mistake I saw from him was on the long TD run where he took a bad angle, but other than that I thought he was very solid.

what I kept hearing from RR concerning martin was-

he wasn't hitting his landmarks (out of position) and he was taking bad angles.

to the folks that want him in the game more........

until that changes in practice, he won't get much PT baby.

    • Do we want anybody particular? I know if we beat Seattle and the Bucs lose this week, we're in (which would give us a week to rest some guys and get Hunt back). 
    • Lost their OC and DC to head coaching gigs. They’ve struggled with injuries and there’s been regression too. One could argue their strength of schedule has had an impact (second most games against play off teams). It was always going to be a difficult season for them. Campbell has no history as a play caller before Detroit. He’s never been an OC in any of his previous stops. So it’s not surprising to see mixed results as he’s not known for offensive prowess. What Campbell brings to the table is leadership, respect and culture setting philosophy.
    • Watching Rivers making adjustments based on pre snap reads is a revelation. Didn't we draft Bryce because he's reputedly a super processor who can shred defenses with his intellect? Well, well, well...
