You can’t make up for that
It may seem like I disagree with you on stuff, Mr. O.city. Sorry about that if you get that impression. It's just discussion, after all.

But that is freaking wrong, man!!! (Actually, it's sort of right, too.)

DJ learned how to scout and prepare as well as any linebacker in the league. Knowing what to expect gives you the advantage even if you're a step or two slow. He also developed a technique that allowed him to skim by blocks instead of engaging them. That's a very special skill that he's refined.

You see it all the time (you saw it Sunday night with Brady). Experience can make a slow guy faster and lack of experience can make a fast guy look slow. He actually had 3 solo tackles in his last game with the Fade. Ragland had 4. Thing is, DJ had about 1/10 the number of snaps.

What he can't do is cover worth a damn anymore.
