Dear Margus

I guess the difference is I don't expect our backup DE to be an impact player, I expect him to hold his own and not get dominated. I am not bashing Clarke, on the contrary I think we need to be patient and not trash him,. I have not seen Hunt dominated by the OL he is against. Peopl act like Hunt was a 1st round pick when in reality he was a 3rd round pick. Thompson and Still were drafted higher I do believe.

I guess I just don't get the Hunt hatred. In my opinion, he is a very good option at DT spelling Geno, Sims or Peko. I think he also plays the run OK and sometimes well. He has not been a stud pass rusher and that seems to be all fans focus on, yet we complain when teams rush for 150 yards like they did yesterday with mainly Dunlap, Peko, Geno and Johnson get abused in the running game.

My point is a very good run stopper gets no credit, but a sack determines the total value of an opinion of some when in reality all of it is important.

Man, Margus has just been terrible up to this point....not even good at clogging the lanes.  He was an abomination in preseason this year, looked like he wasn't even trying at times, getting pushed all over the place.....the hate was legit, he sucked(s).  

That said, yesterday, he looked like a totally different player.  Let's hope he continues.
