ROFL QFT

ROFL he's already got 2 sacks that I can think of.ROFL

Hali is a solid player and has played for awhile.

Hali's issue has always been finishing. Tons of QB pressures but relatively few sacks. As an OLB, he's playing at a lighter weight, which should help him finish off plays.

I expect, given this is his 2nd year at OLB, him to have a 12-14 sack year.

What'll help Hali, or any other OLB, the most is a front 3 that demand double teams. Hali had pressures but not as many sacks as possible last year because opposing QB's could move up, back or to the side and not have any other pressure.

This.

Plus, sacks ALWAYS come in bunches.

The best pass rusher KC has ever seen, DT, would get shut out for 2 weeks and then explode with 3 or 4 the next week.

Just look at Oakland and Seattle alone. He beat those mother****ers like they promised to pay his child support...

Not to mention that there were some CP members that wanted Staley, IIRC.

I've said it all along, Hali could have 14 sacks this season and dipshits like Dane will still rag on him. All the while having their lips fastened to Jared Allen's pubic bone, who is Casper in big games.

He's done a good job of proving people wrong showing he can actually play standing..I still think his best spot is as the complimentary rusher and not the main rusher though.

I could be mis-remembering, but the only person I remember wanting Staley was findthedr.

The rest of us saw him for what he is.

A 2nd or 3rd round talent.

I think Frankie wanted Staley...but it was generally the handful of OL backers that it usually is.

That's possible.

Point being, I don't recall many people pining for Staley.

IIRC, most were looking at Okoye, Bowe and Meachem.

Were did I "rag" on him?

You need to work on your reading comprehension, reerunian.

I love what Hali has done, and he has exceeded my expectations but I agree, and think his best work has come at the expense of RTs. A premier pass rusher at ROLB would turn Hali, and our defense in general in a monster IMHO.

the only thing i remember about staley is people laughing at the trade made to acquire him...

no idea where then notion comes from that people wanted him
