There was one jet sweep where Burfict read the play and blew up the LT knocking him five yards into the back field rerouting the runner inside. Now the trailing backer missed the tackle and it was an 8 yard gain, but those are the kind of things he brings to the table. There was another play where he was in zone and he abandoned his zone to pick up a back who was completely uncovered that Tannehill was trying to get the ball to. Instead Tannehill had to eat the ball and throw it out of bounds.
LOVE Tez! He's just such a smart player. Just wish we could get him a 3 down middle backer who's got similar quality. I honestly would trade up to get a premier one. It's so key to this defense getting into the top ten range.
LB and OL in 2019. Two biggest priorities.
