And then we went to a 3-4 and the guy basically has no position.

He'd make a good backup somewhere like Indy or Chicago.
I don't understand why he wasn't tried at 3-4 DE.

He's not strong enough at the point of attack. If we were going to play 1-gap 100% of the time, he might be able to do it.

But him playing 2-gap, 5-technique just isn't going to happen. He's a penetrator.

That makes sense. He was the right size, I guess just not strong enough.

Funny, all I heard for three years was how Herm had this great eye for talent and how our drafts had improved under him.

Turk just didn't fit. I thought they would take him the other way, into a DE in the 3-4. He will catch on with another team and have a decent career.

The worst part, is even with these moves, the drafts under Herm were still better than under DV.

But, the Turk McBride move especially, is about not fitting into the scheme.

That's the first thing I think about when these things go down.

On the plus side: Maybe Albert and Flowers will be good enough to mask all the other **** ups.

Bowe certainly fits that bill.

Yep, yep.

Don't know why he didn't come to mind? Maybe because he was largely invisible last Sunday?

Not his fault Brodie defaulted to the check down almost the entire first half.

Not blaming Bowe, necessarily.

Just stating a fact. Dude wasn't a major part of the passing game, for whatever reason. Coverage, Croyle, whatever...

We should have drafted ****ing Ryan Kalil instead of this Turd McBride.

If it's coverage you can blame Bowe, a large part of his job is to get open.

I've been waiting for this moment.
