Ford still hurries a lot of quarterbacks into throwing sooner than they want so I think his sacks will start coming because we have great coverage in the backfield and actually Peters and Berry benefit with the hurries Ford brings creating turnovers. I'm not ready to call Ford a bust but he does need to get motivated as a starting DE.

No but I think of him as a hybrid linebacker defensive end. Same thing as I think of Hali when he plays up on the line just like DT to rush the quarterback.

Ford is an Edsel.

If the dude was running around hitting everything that moved, i would be more likely to believe this.
Not only does he not seem to have natural football instincts but he play kind of lazy. It was a bit of a surprise to see him coming up hard and setting then edge against TEs and Olinemen against the Rams. At this point in his career, it shouldn't be such an improvement to just be making good contact.

Dude getting a whole article written about him will be the greatest moment of his career.
If he was a 5th round pick no one would care. |

We could probably get more production out of that position if Allen Bailey lined up there and just bull rushed a tackle every snap. |

Yes. That is why we are concerned we are losing something. But he is a first round pick because of his skill and speed. That doesn't guarantee anything, but it's still there. It isn't just the round he was picked in, but the skill that got him in that round that brings our attention to him.

We are absolutely misusing Dee Ford, which makes the entire situation worse.

I was gonna talk some shit about Dee Ford but you guy's seem to have a handle on it.
If it makes you feel any better, Attaochu is 2nd string on the Chargers, (I know a lot of you preferred him at the 22 pick). |
