Freak and Ego both could make a lot more money after another season because they've gotten pushed around this year.

LB's with the exception of Kwon, are making no plays when it counts.

it all starts up front... whoever controls the line of scrimmage is the key to offense and defense

think about that list in that window for a bit. is it not a shame that the only thing moffit can do to try to motivate these players is put lists in his windows. what good does calling those players out like do if they keep starting on saturdays.
i have seen several posters say its time for moffit to go, that wont do any good if all the next s&c coach can do is post list in his window and then watch players on that list start on saturday.

Our linebackers can't tackle or cover. It's not the only problem with the defense, but it's definitely a problem. Part of the reason that we got shredded by Bama in the running game is that our linebackers couldn't plug the gap even if they found the right one because they just got run over. The DL can't do everything. They're outmatched in numbers by the OL, so sometimes the best you can hope for is to draw a double team and occupy the OL so that linebackers are free to hit the gaps and make plays. But when your linebackers can't stop a wet fart that doesn't buy you much.

Of course, the DL frequently doesn't do that much, and the linebackers then get run over even worse. But to say that the linebackers aren't a problem is really dumb.
