You're right. There would be much better inside options. Probably on someone's cutting room floor.
MJ just isn't getting anything done on the outside.
Agreed. At least inside MJ's inability to bend now isn't as glaring of an issue.

I will give him this though; he fights to get off blocks and he's a high motor guy. He doesn't just look to engage and push like some guys the Bengals have had in the past. Billings definitely went after the QB in college.
It remains to be seen if either or both can do that same thing in the NFL.
That is what he is. He's a high motor relentless worker. Not overly explosive and not overly athletic.
With Billings you have to decipher what was a "Hunt-Sack" and what was a skill sack.
A "Hunt-Sack" would be just being a freak of nature (which he is) and running over a guy with pure strength because the other poor bastard isn't as strong.
This differs from a bull rush move, in that a bull rush requires proper placement of hands, leverage and hip flexion to disengage from the block without losing balance.
You might be able to get a few of those but it isn't a repeatable or dependable thing.
Then you watch Geno bull rush and you see it's dependable and repeatable with how he uses his hands, leverage and hips all in unison almost every time he bull rushes. The insane power of Geno just makes it that much more effective.
