SPuDS Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 Unrelated topic.. the ire some have for Loffler. saying he isnt playing well.. is it due to him not being mentioned? I think that's a good thing. hes playing more as a traditional safety and protecting the deep stuff (tho yes I have seen him in chase sometimes) from what I've seen.. Am I off base or is this accurate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's a good thing. hes playing more as a traditional safety and protecting the deep stuff (tho yes I have seen him in chase sometimes) from what I've seen.. Am I off base or is this accurate? A small part. Loffler is the type of guy who sells out for big hits. And he has had a lot of whiffs this year, with very few game altering hits. I was at last weeks game and paid most of my attention while we were on D to loffler. What i saw was him seemingly to be slow in decisions and first step. Previously He came up and played a very shallow S position. he made most of our Mlber range tackles while hurl was pushed around by linemen. This year, bighill and jsk are covering more of the middle deep range that loffler covered in the past. When his decision is clear on who to take he does ok. When it isnt, when qbs look him off, when he faces double moves he is struggling. He made some un needed blind side turns rather then speed turning in the direction of the play, etc. What we seem to be doing more of especially in that game, is sending mo deep. On the plays where mo was the deepest man, or we had 2 deep / quarters loffler did a lot better. His best play has come when he is coming up and making plays on ball carriers / pass attempts. Running down hill and laying the wood. Last year we saw more and more teams exploit the lack of deep help. Loffler is best in the box, or at the back end of the box, and under neath on a robber level. Still a good player, if some what limited he just doesnt fit too well right now. We will have to wait and see if he can adapt in his new role or if we can make it easier more with the deeper help from some one else. He isnt hurl bad on the back end by any means.

Mark F Posted August 1, 2018 Report Share Posted August 1, 2018 (edited) Harris.... what a player. got the ultimate compliment from O'Shea the other day: Quote “Man, I would’ve loved to play with him,” said O’Shea, the Bombers head coach. “I would’ve been fired up on the sidelines all the time he got the ball, I would’ve begging the offensive coaches to just give it to Andrew “I think I would’ve cheered every time he scored or ran somebody over. He can do it all. He thinks of himself as an O-lineman when it’s pass and thinks of himself as a receiver when he’s running routes. When he carries the ball it’s like he wants to serve the offensive line for its effort ... he makes people around him better.” the Bombers are getting a lot of awards this season. All hard earned and well deserved. Jovon, is having so much on field fun playing this season........ so great to see a guy play with such verve. It reminds me of the good ole days of West, Battle and Jones. going to have to open up the piggy bank to extend Bighill.
