Did Goonther finally figure out how to use him? He was very active in stopping hte runn last night.

It's about time to see what Fox is made of. Or, it has been rumored that Pollard may be looked at for an OLB position. I however, like Pollard and Page at safety.

Either way, I'm still not that impressed with Kawika Mitchell. He's come almost full circle from the start of his career, but I just kept thinking last night about how many plays the guy actually misses. Mitchell is a poor man's Marvcus Patton IMHO. He makes plays consistently, but he isn't a playmaker.

Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't mind seeing Mitchell back, I just think that a team will throw out a ton of money on him in FA. If that's the case, I would love to see KC move Bell to the middle, and sign Lance Briggs from Chicago, etc.

Bell sucks. I don't want him anywhere near this team next year. At ANY position.

Eric · 12-25-2006, 12:46 AM

Did he play as well as Scott Fujita?

What do you think happened to Bell?

Are we using him wrong? He made the pro bowl in 01...

I don't know about anyone else, but I am tired of watching Kawika Mitchell get manhandled by RB's and FB's every game when he's blitzing up the middle. Can he run over a RB for once?

If it were me, I would move Bell to the MLB position next season, and let Mitchell walk unless the money isn't there like he hopes.

Hey!

Injuries took their toll. He's also out of position.

Playing him at MLB in a cover 2 is about the worst possible idea one could draw up...

Bell doesn't struggle covering in the cover 2. He struggles manned up against TE's. And I'm not sure how anyone can possibly say he's that bad in coverage as he gets pulled out on every 3rd down because Gun thinks Mitchell is better in the cover 2.

At any rate, I'd rather have Bell covering the middle of the field, than covering a TE. Bell has every bit as good of speed as Mitchell has IMO.

DJ should be our MLB...

Oh God no...The one and only thing DJ doesn't do well is avoid blockers. On the outside, he doesn't have to. He's free to roam, and use his athelticism to run around blockers.

Hootie · 12-25-2006, 01:20 AM

Do you have any idea what the responsibilities of a cover 2 LB is?

DJ would be a perfect MLB in our cover 2 as soon as we get a DT that requires consistent double teams.

Sure-Oz · 12-25-2006, 01:20 AM

Don't Eff with DJ, let him do what he is doing, if it isn't broke don't fix it.

Hootie · 12-25-2006, 01:24 AM

Urlacher started a few games as a weakside LB in Chicago, played awful..

Moved to MLB and he's been a pro bowler ever since.

DJ has similar skills to Urlacher...just doesn't have two DT's to eat up all of the blockers.

Hammock Parties · 12-25-2006, 01:27 AM

I think I'd rather have DJ outside. He can make more of an impact as a pass rusher there. His speed is a great asset in defending that side of the field.
