Interesting stuff he said in it though. He claims theres not a leader on defense, the way reggie nelson and Leon hall was. He claims we are missing marvin jones speed on the outside. And im wondering why did he wait so long for core then. He was all in on james wright who isnt as good. He mentions protecting the qb, and the ravens were all over andy. Well why didnt he replace ced or bodine. He doesnt mention Nugent at all. He says all the coaches dont fear for their jobs. He says he knew it would be a hard year with alot of people leaving and they would have to grind. He claims he kept vontaze out, so the defense would get used to playing without burfict in preseason. And mentions we need to run the ball better. Like the denver broncos did last year.
Honestly reading what he says makes me think we are doomed. Can a grown man cry over his team? Lol
Mike Brown ....right, losing Nelson and Hall lost leadership on D and losing Jones hurt and I'll add in Sanu.....That is Mike Brown.....Keeping Burfict out, he was suspended. You prepare for start of season and Burfict was suspended. .....Most of what Coach Lewis says here is just stating the facts. I see nothing wrong with any of what you say Coach Lewis said....I saw starting the season without Nelson, Hall, Jones, Sanu and Burfict as a problem way back before summer training camp. We can add in not just losing Hue Jackson but many other coaches in the off season....add in Eifert injuries keeping him out most of year. ....Now some bonehead will come on here and say this is all part of football. Yes, the bad part, the part that loses you games.
