Believe it was Jakeypoo that provided these the last time i saw it. Didn't think Billings was having that good
of a year but he actually isn't bad. Still really young too with upside.

I think a part of this is Billings has suffered from the same ailment that affects the rest of the defense - poor coaching.

Marvin neutered this defense from the start with his selection of Austin. You can't run a defense and say ok boys go out there and line up in base 4-3 zone and just roll with the punches, play soft, play back.

We've had little to no innovation, stunting, blitzing, disguising, at all. MJ has been in at RDE way to much even before the injuries and that hurts every other player down the line when the opposing offense knows there's a weak link on the field.

Geno and Carlos have likewise suffered.
