Speaks and Nnandi were pro ready to stop the run. Veach wasn’t bullshitting us about that. Here’s proof from last Sunday:



And as much as I didn’t like Speaks in September, he flashed some pass rush in the month Houston was out.

I actually think Speaks could be a decent player with time. The truth that nobody wants to admit is that a position like pass rusher isn’t going to have rookies ready year 1 unless you are a high draft pick like Bradley Chubb (most of the time).
