    again.. i know hes listed as a 3-4 olb..but he is not asked to do any of these things...every down he rushes from the end..except when richardson/wilk were not on the feild he would fill in there spot..of all the front 7, he came play in different spots

    and im not saying coples can be this great all pro player... i think he is a solid player who can get 5-6 sacks a year..and thats ok for a secondary rusher

    coples is probably the best athlete in the front 7 and is the most versatile

    he played DT his junior year at chapel hill, played DE his senior year, and is now playing OLB. that's versatile

    i understand he is listed as a olb...but he does not have the responsabilitys as say calvin pace or the other "olb" that plays across from him...99% of the times he stands up he would either rush from the stance or before the snap put his hand in the dirt and rush from the edge.. hes a hyprid player and its pretty usless to call him a "olb" when he doesnt not drop into coverage and 99.9% of the time rushing

    Coples I believe led the team in pressures. He's always in the back-field. He should be more comfortable in his role this season and should have a breakout year.

    Coples got off to a slow start in 2013. But a lot of that I equate to him learning a new position and then getting hurt while doing so. He struggled when he got back from his ankle injury but from the Saints game on he played pretty good football for us. I like him a lot. I think we got a good player. He had a very strong rookie year for us as well.

    I'm expecting a big year and 10 sacks. He's had some time to adjust to OLB and he'll get plenty of opportunities with the Sons of Anarchy down in the trenches.

    Fred Couples? He's playing well. I expect him to keep crushing it off the tee for years.

    Somehow the bolded part just doesn't fit with everything else you're posting in multiple posts.

    If you just don't like somebody and don't want them to succeed just say so. Be consistent about it.
