Is it the following season? The guy making the calls is the QB of the defense they have to read the formation and get the defense set. To minimize the value of the person and the complexity of the job is to not understand the whole idea.
We know someone is going to have to make these calls for at least the first 3 games with Burfict out. With Nelson and Hall possibly gone, you very well could have no one on defense to make those calls early in the season outside of Mauluga. Pay Vinny a fair deal and move on. He is a very good back up and a low end starter, pay him as such.
Never made that assumption. Try again.
The way you and others act, this defense is somewhere along the lines of borderline genius intellect needed to make the calls.
Rey Maualuga couldn't.
Vontaze Burfict could.
You don't need a genius. You can find guys who can learn in the draft. But hey, if you guys are okay watching our LBs run at a TE or RB from behind because they can't hang in coverage, that's cool too.
Just stop bitching when TEs and RBs eat us up again
