Spears replacement

Anyone have an idea on who’s replacing spears for the star, cause I think we all saw jimcoily is not the answer. Maybe it’s jhase thomas or they move him to fs and let cooley play it.

I like the idea of Benefield playing star. Cooley and Thomas as your two safeties.

I think on most downs Cooley moves to star and Thomas plays safety. Then on third and longs Jackson comes in and either replaces one of the backers or Thomas.

is this shot down by the latest injury report?

It won’t be long now…. Might even be this game but Thomas won’t be coming off the field.
He came in and literally played the best of any defender on the field.
It’s going to be hard to pull him off the field no matter the situation. He’s appears to be that good.

Jhase Thomas is raved by everyone. NFL bloodlines

I don’t understand why Jimcoily, a LB/S hybrid, was the middle safety on the last play of the first half.

I think they were just trying to figure it out on the fly. We didn’t see Jimcoily in that position again in the second half.

I get it, it’s a chaotic situation. Just a shame because you know Spears isn’t getting sucked in by the underneath stuff and allowing that throw.

Totally agree

This is perhaps what was going on—figuring things out on the fly. But if that’s the case, what are practices for?

This is the answer

How does Jimcoily fit in a remanufactured secondary?

This week with Craver mainly playing in the slot I don't want to see Cooley or Ty man on man with Craver. I would rather have Woodland slide into the slot to cover Craver.
Now I do think the coaches like Cooley at the STAR and if thats the case then we will need to double Craver because Cooley man on man with Craver is a complete mismatch.

Jimcoily is listed at 6’3 220. He seems like someone to me that can add 10 pounds and play at off ball linebacker next year

There’s a guy getting paid $3M making that decision.

Jimcoily is our 2nd string Star. He got thrown in the fire against a really good QB that exposed him, amongst everyone else on the defense. I'm not letting 3 quarters ruin the comments that we've heard about the kid since he stepped on campus.

We sure like to give up quickly on our guys. Jimcoily is a talented player. Quite a few of our guys had issues Saturday. Maybe we should give up on all of them?

I thought I saw Jackson on the injury report too. Not sure of the listed status.

It’s interesting that he pushed Cooley so hard for playing time because Cooley has had a fantastic year so far. Makes me feel good about what we have at free safety.
I think the solution to spears being out is that we are going to play a true three safety look. Benfield, Thomas, and Cooley. You could also see CJ coming in at times, but he has more the linebacker build.
