If you look at the wedge blocking the Bears' special teams unit does, it's no wonder why Hester is so damn successful. The problem isn't Hall, it's just piss-poor execution and blocking on special teams.
Thing is I don't trust Preiffer or any other coach on this current staff to fix that problem in one season. I'm all for dumping Hall in favor for a super fast guy who will just flat out take what's given to him and hit the gaps as hard as he can. We may not be able to make big plays anymore, but at least we can avoid dumb mistakes. |

I'd hate to say I agree with him, so it's a good thing I don't.

I meant more about Dante's flame. But actually LB wasn't our problem on D - our DT positions were, and our Offensive three and outs didn't help them. Yes we need youth at CB we have a couple that Herm can probably do something with, or add to. |

He's not a "problem" he is adequate and not a glaring gaping hole on D, IMO the problem with bell is we paid for his potential and he didn't live up to it. remember the joke about potentially and reality? The young boy asks his father the difference and he tells his son to ask his mom if she'd sleep with Robert Redford for a Million dollars and his sister if she'd sleep with Brad Pitt for a million. The boy came back with a yes from both women and the Dad says; "there's you answer, POTENTIALLY we're millionaires, but in REALITY we live with a couple whores." |

he doesn't put much pressure on the coverage team to hold the middle of the field. Opposing coverage unit know that they just have to maintain containment and not let Hall's dancing pull them out of their lanes. Hall is afraid of the big hit and it has taken away part of the return game.

I don't think our ST blocking is anywhere near as good as the Bears. Not even close. Every time we have a punt return, Dante is facing a 1-on-3 situation it seems like. He probably does dance too much on kick returns, but on punt returns our blocking is always terrible, it's almost like we aren't blocking anybody. Go watch some of the punt returns from this season, you'll see Dante have to take on two or three guys. I'd bet if you gave him Devin Hester's blocking you'd see some action.
