He did play a lot of snaps, saw a lot of action. I'm hoping our starting linebackers are better, and the return of Pro Bowl Burfict would be huge. A J Hawk could help this team. I want this defense to be Super Bowl from front to back. We will have a Super Bowl D Line. I think our DB's are pretty good. Now if the LB's can step up and make this a Super Bowl defense. Nico looks like he will at least be a back-up, and we need great talent in case of injuries to reach the Super Bowl.
This. He may be nothing but a back up but last year showed us how important back up can be. Weren't all three of our starters (Burfict, Mauauluga, Lamur) missing at the same time last year?
And remember in '08 when we had Robert Geathers and Kevin Kaesviharn lining up at LB?
