This is the third game in a row he's completely vanished against these guys. Spare me the motivation shit and start playing better.
Between this and Justin Reid running his mouth like a dipshit before the game, just shut the fuck up and focus on the game.
This defense got depantsed again by this team yesterday. Until they actually nut up and stop them, They deserve every bit of criticism coming their way and I don't want to see shit like this.
The AFC Championship game should've provided all the motivation they needed. Doing shit like this now is just a hollow gesture.
I don’t think the answer is trading Chris Jones… instead it is surrounding him with better edge rushers… specifically upgrading from Frank Clark. [Reply]

Sure it does. He moves Jones to DE because he has a greater chance of getting to the QB than the other guys. You think undersized Clark and Karlaftis are going to have much success on the interior? He's trying to create pressure in those circumstances by moving the teams best lineman to the DE spot. [Reply]

You mean a DE getting stuffed on the edge and spinning in a circle doesn't help the DT next to him? [Reply]

This is a reactionary take.
Go back and look at who else is on the line for those snaps, and where. Then look at how those players attack their assignments. CJ was drawing doubles inside. Spags is about creating mismatches, but he's also about trying to disrupt your gameplan. obviously, every team is going to try and neutralize CJ, especially with the season he's been having. At the very least, putting him outside makes doubling him that much harder.
And it could disrupt whatever plan the IOL has as well. And it's worked multiple times this season already. it just didn't work so well on Sunday.
Bottom line, Spags isn't known for trying to show up his own players. Not his thing. Creating mismatches and trying to create circumstances for mental mistakes on the OL is. [Reply]

Even better! I was thinking about him as an end because of his lean 6 foot 7 frame but you're right he played inside. Man what an interior line with two HOFers! [Reply]

Do you think we reach as many crucial games without dominating games which only after the fact seem less crucial because we won because of plays made my CJ? [Reply]
