consider our LB play has been as bad as anything else this year and all...

You really don't have a clue do you?

In past years we had multiple massive DLinemen that were constantly being rotated in, and great DB's both talented and great coaching (cooper).

thus: the LB's could wreck shop and run freely making plays look easy.

Go read a SI article or something and come back and tell us what you "know" or have "seen"

that play just looked like they were afraid gurley was gonna make a cut on them or something. Either that or they were thinking playaction. Either way, it's as if all the linebackers hesitated on that play. Hell, Welter was left unblocked. Weird.

agreed

I think they were more worried about forcing him back to all the help inside rather than risk him bouncing one and housing it

f) A couple of plays that are telling: 1) 13:33 youtube mark, Welter appears to read the play, and should have hit Gurley 3 yds behind the LOS. Instead he whiffs. It's unclear to me how he completely whiffed (don't take my word; watch it and see for yourself).

---

Define Whiffs?

Pretty positive he made the tackle on that play... Looked like he read the play, filled the hole, and worked back inside instead of up the field past the line of scrimmage (thus preventing an easy cutback) and made the hit. That's pretty textbook LB play slappy, get use to it.

I still want to see Copeland at middle linebacker. He'd be a damn nightmare to running backs!

---

highly, highly doubtful. maybe in a drill such as the big cat. but in a real game he would be lost like a fart in a hurricane.

I didn't see the scrimmage but he went 8-11 for 98 yards, 73% completion percentage.

---

From the 3 Saturday scrimmages ive attended im simply not impressed with a scrambling fumbling QB. Yea hes fast that's awesome, but prob 75% of this board could go 8-11 against the 3rd defense...

I'm 99.9% sure if you are academically ineligible to play, you can't practice either.

Amazing how you can be that sure and be wrong. Yes, he and Tahj Jones practiced every day just like a normal football season.

“D.J. is having a hell of a spring right now,” Barrow said. “As long as he keeps progressing, nobody is going to beat him.”

He won't be starting after the first game or two

And you know this how? Please teach us your ways of seeing into the future. Cause obviously you don't have any faith in Chief...

And Barrow seems pretty happy outside, and has been very successful there, Don't see him moving to the inside IMO

:geauxtigers:

Coming from a retired High School football coach: if your not constantly coaching a player up/yelling at them then you usually don't care to much about them. If a player messes up and doesn't get yelled at thats when you need to worry cause obviously that coach doesn't give a shite about that player.

. :geauxtigers:

Oh yea by the way Maximus and Lester Earls please go home to your shanties and quit going watch practice every day, cause you obviously know more than all of the coaches combined. :doublebird:

wow, didn't realize they listed him at 6'0". he was 6'2" at LSU and 6'1" at the combine per NFL.com.

well then, I think they may measure out roughly the same, height and weight wise.

---

He's 6'0" maybe 6'1" but hes definitely 245 lbs.
