Keep him near the LOS. Let him blitz some as well as cover. While he is a complete and utter failure at safety, I think he can have a career as a "plus" slot corner. Barry's first season I thought we used more 2 high pre sets with Amos, Savage may never have been the physical banger safety we all hoped he'd be after being drafted so high, that didn't happen, but he still had 60 some tackles 9 PD's, coupled with Amos that was a good combo. he's just not as good in cover 1 he should be.

If that game were to be played, GB might give up a perfect passer rating AND a 200+ yards rushing. lol, I get it, but nah. I am in the camp that thinks they move on after this year regardless. Doesn't his contract expire after this season? If so that would mean MLF doesn't even have to fire him, which seems to be something he just doesn't want to do.

Brat&Beer Posted December 22, 2023 Share Posted December 22, 2023 Ryan Wood @ByRyanWood Luke Musgrave said he might not have finished Chargers game a few weeks ago if he knew his kidney was lacerated, but it hadn’t bled enough to be “astronomically painful” until he got home. Saw the blood in his urine, and knew pretty quickly something was significantly wrong. Musgrave says he wants to play again this season. “I’ll play through pain,” he says. As if there was doubt. He also realizes this is significant injury, and he must be cautious. Musgrave says his lacerated kidney was “level 4 out of 5” grade, and he still has pain. So, we’ll see.

I'm not sure what you've seen of Savage that makes you think he's got the coverage skills for the slot. When he's at Safety....when in many ways, stuffs in front of him (or coming at him) - he lacks coverage skills. How he'd manage in the slot - when he'd be required to move/cover in all directions (including backwards...which in this defense doesnt happen too often at Safety......) - I dont know. I'm not seeing it.....but I'm not gonna worry about it. That's next year stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could be available if we make the playoffs. If we lose one more game yah shut him down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or that's just Jaire and Jones Don't think I've been on Jones when he's been injured. Jaire got a big payday, now we can't get on the field. It seems the Packers are going out of their way to run cover for him. There is nothing to play for at this point. All we could do is dominate three teams who sucks and possibly save Barry's job. NO thanks. I'm for Carolina scoring 30 on us! Then watch the sackless MLF let Barry finish the season anyway.

Eh Barry's gone. Too much heat to re-sign him. We sneak into the playoffs. 9ers slip to 2 seed. We spoil their hopes of a SB somehow. That's my dream. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I remember, Savage took snaps as a slot corner late last year, after he had been decidedly lackluster at safety(to the point of being demoted?), and apparently the overall feeling was he was better at that then as a straight-up safety.

Hmmmmmm....okay. Odd that he was considered better, but I didnt see (or recognize) it....so perhaps both true and surprising at the same time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
