Dime = 4 corner backs, 2 safeties. Played against teams who lineup their RB at WR, or have 4 WRs on the field at the same time.

Essentially, Rey M is too slow to guard a WR or RB.

Seems like we're definitely seeing the death of the 2 down LBs in the NFL and the gradual increase of smaller more athletic guys. Rey is kind of a dying breed unless you need a thumper in a 3-4 defense. The 4-3 has kind of killed the bigger run stoppers.
