Correct. Drob was billed as a bowling ball with knives. That turned out to be false. I think we've all seen that this is what Jenkins is like on the field:
He's a DE. Rarely gets in the game. He will now though. Doesn't play NT though. Think about 310 spread out over 6'8.....he'll get out-leveraged in the middle.
Im Madden............. Ellis is out with a groin tear. This guy comes in, 3 sacks in 4 games. Just saying.
He will, Ryan has already said before the Jenkins injury he would never put a square peg in a round hole. Mangini is not coaching this team, Ryan will come up with some thing that will work. Maybe not anything close to Jenkins, but he'll patch it up.
Coach Ryan might have to suit up. I think he's the only othe 400+ pound guy on the team....Canning Crowder look out!
I admire the confidence, but I will take a bit of a wait and see on that one. I think there's a huge risk that Jenks being out kills the season pretty much.
Agreed. I think going over to more of a 4-3 will help a lot. We will see how stubborn Rex is (we know Mangini would've rode the 3-4 to his death bed). Granted the 3-4 offers more options and more chances to disguise a lot of defensive blitzes, but we all know, without the anchor in the middle, the 3-4 falls flat pretty quickly. I think we can get through this with the 4-3 and just do 3-4 on certain situations. The 4-3 will allow a lot of other players to get into the mix, including more time from Westerman. It's time for a lot of people to step up. That is what will get us through.
I don't know, I think Rex can make the 3-4 work. To be honest it's rarely a true 3-4 anyway. Extra guy are always up on the line. I like the 3-4 simply because of Harris and Scott, I think the 4-3 would take away some of their play making ability.
