What? WTF? Neimann plays like he is lost. He has given up TDs, missed tackles, given up huge junks in coverage, and has never seen an offensive linemen he didn't allow to grab him and block him into oblivion.
The reason why Neimann recovers so many fumbles is because he is has almost always been taken out of the play, and ends up standing near the pile when the ball comes out.
Neimann is possibly the worst linebacker in football. Next to Niemann, Hitchens looks like a hero. Perhaps you should take some time and watch the all-22, just so you can understand the scope of Neimann's ineptitude.

It's worth a shot. Worst they can say is "hell the fuck no". [Reply]
Well with no trade for a safety we're talking Anderson, Watts or Bootle getting a chance now. Anderson was elevated to the roster against the Browns, took furst reps in preseason and is 6'1 and ran a 4:44 40 so the kid is very quick plus has played safety, nickle and LB before.
With Niemann they may elevate Rozeboom again or bring in Jaylan Smith. Either way both of these guys need to stay off the fiekd for the good of the team. [Reply]

A traffic cone could give us that level of production. I just don't understand why Spags insists on playing this guy. There HAS to be better options out there. Hell even on our own roster. [Reply]

yeah I mean, how much worse could Watts and D'OD be? They can't be worse than 100% inept, can they? [Reply]
I would LOVE to know what Chief Fan saw in this guy to actually "like" him as a defender. We're a pretty stupid fanbase, but it's difficult to believe that we're THAT stupid. [Reply]
