I don't know where he's gonna be once Kindred comes back next year. Jabril at SS and or hybrid LB in some situations. no more retuning. Kindred at SS spelling Jabril or have CB SS LB LB SS CB type set up on 2nd and 8 situations v pass happy teams. Also against heavy personal you could us Kinred as a FS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all seriousness, there’s a role for both of those guys and neither role is 25 yards from the LOS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've convinced myself that Greg's whacked out defensive scheme is just a result of McCourty, Jamar Taylor, and BBC being completely outgunned from week 1. I think corner is a bigger need than safety this off-season but a team like ours still couldn't really go wrong with BPA at any position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure Williams kept a safety deep because our corners were such a liability as well. Why he kept him so deep, I have no idea. I do know Haden would have helped, and still can't believe we released him, and CB is a major need in the offseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t disagree, the talent/athleticism at CB is lacking and CB is a much bigger need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our corners aren’t great, but they’re not that damned bad they need a fs 20 yards from the LOS, lets be reasonable here. They also don’t need 12 yard cushions.

I'm ultimately happy that Haden got to play for a playoff team even if it is Pittsburgh, but I think the denial that he would have made a difference sort of crazy. He's not a great or maybe even a good corner anymore, but he got a lot of use on another team. Leaving our 4th corner spot to the void was really stupid, and I hate Hue's perpetual victim attitude but I understand the exasperation that cutting Haden, trading Davis, no vet QB could cause. Those things effect your team, and especially when it comes to Haden, the players/coaches all seemed to hate that move. Sashi was far from flawless.

bosko1616 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 So I just saw we’re the leading candidates for Hard knocks and because we’ve avoided already for so long we can’t avoid it this time. Title should be circus by the lake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won’t argue Haden, but he’s not much more than average at best. Hue was given a vet, Brock Osweiler, who Hue didn’t want apparently. As far as Davis, our middle linebacker who took his place is a pro bowler so I can’t complain too much. If Hue were half as good at coaching as he is making himself out to be a victim we’d really have something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like we have the late 70's Steel Curtain defense. Coleman dropped an easy first down at the 11 yard line. Yes Coleman SHOULD have caught the ball. Kizer threw a great pass to him. Historically with this epic 0-16 team, I trust our kicker more to make a fieldgoal within the 30 than I do Kizer to drive it in for a touchdown. I trust our D with 3 timeouts to force a 3 and out more than I trust Kizer to NOT throw a red zone INT. Again it is a mute point. If "Ifs" and "Buts" were candy and nuts everyday would be Christmas and we would be 1-15. That is all Mastercheddaar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, Haden and the rest of the team should have been singing Sashi's praise for getting a Joe chance to play for a contender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
