Linebacker U

Not anymore. I knew RR was a stud, but my God. I was shocked at the drop off in talent. I've watched the game on DVR 2 more times and it was like we were playing with 10 against 11. I can't believe with Ryan's knee's we didn't have someone better prepared to play. We could not stop anything after Ryan went out.

Agree... there was a drop off in talent. Not to bag on Crow... he is inexperienced. But hard to believe that with two junior college transfers and Austin Box, there wasn't a better fit for middle LB???

On another thread, I like the idea of shifting Nic Harris to MLB and bringing Sam Proctor in at safety. Nic is a hard hitting guy who hasn't been able to do as much since the run stopping has been great on the line and with LBs... until yesterday.

I would move either beal or Travis lewis to middle linebacker, and let alexander or RJ Washington take end spot

Venables was saying Austin was going to start at one of the outside positions, but then he got hurt and Travis Lewis got to play the first game and I think we all know what happened from there. I would think Austin would do a pretty good job in the middle, I heard he is good at pass coverage.
