He absolutely got pummeled that game. No question. That doesn't mean he is "garbage" by any means. He is a quality player most of the time. He is kinda like the far less talented, nose tackle version of a player like Randy Moss in that he can dominate, but also chooses to turn the switch off at times. If a player like him can be taught to be consistent and bring the noise every week, he would be worth EVERY PENNY of a long term deal.
I didn't watch many 49ers games last year, but his problem in this one was pad level. He got stood up, turned and thrown to the floor way more than a man of his size ever should. Especially when he outweighs his opponent by so much.
To me, he seems like a lazy player with a lot of talent.
Here's the reason Pioli may take a look:
