Burfict and Jones were really tone setters for this defense. Whos the tone setter for this defense?
I like Hubbard. Hes a lunch and pail kinda DE. But he lacks that seek and destroy attitude.
Dunlap...fine player but again too laid back at the position that demands a edgey attitude.
The Steelers and Ravens have playmakers at all 3 levels on defense.
We have zero.
Maybe when Shawn Williams gets healthy he can start a trend.
See ball take ball. See ball carrier stop him.in his tracks.
Was hoping Bates could be the next Reggie Nelson for us but he really needs to start tackling better and with more authority.
I still think that opening day BS call where he laid his shoulder into Mike Williams may have been on his mind.
I think all of the young Linebackers we have can be tone setters, Pratt, Wilson, ADG and even Bailey are playmakers that like
to hit hard and tackle well and can make plays on the ball. Reader can be a tone setter but he was just tired last game from
taking too many snaps. Still think we can have playmakers at all 3 phases, heck Bell hits with attitude himself.
