That said, you are also talking about a stacked defensive line unit that is a handful for anyone to block so bringing second-level pressure with a good rusher is tough to handle. Either way, the guy is a good pass rusher but as a linebacker, in the sense most people are talking about here, he was pretty bad last year. They did a good job hiding him in the SB though with a double on Kelce almost anytime he was in coverage.
Now Lavonte David? He is a flat-out stud.
Agree with you on David, he is one of the most underrated LBs out there.
I was more impressed with Devin White against the Saints than the Chiefs. I guess I witnessed his one good performance of the year and was fooled! Someone did post whites coverage numbers in a different thread and they were horrid. I still think he’s leagues better than any LB we’ve fielded since Burfict.
