Booch Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 yes they have Biggie playing the MLB position they way you need to in order to be successful..thus allowing JSK and Moe/Fenner to play accordingly to be successful..which ripples into the secondary...and further confirrms this 'gap filling' role of Hurl's was just a B.S smokescreen to not throw him under the bus for the team's oversight in not adequately filling that position and adjusting the ratio accordingly rebusrankin and Mark F 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurl.... well.... not so much... That's basically my point... Hall did actually start this season with schemes that still used Bighill like a Hurlbacker... thankfully that stopped after only a couple games - it was ridiculous watching Bighill up in the middle of the DL Its very nice to have a real MLB again bearpants 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rebusrankin Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 Hypothetically Fenner in at SAM and Mo out is a wash but would love to have both. Not excited at all about Gaitor. Don't see how Flanders sees the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He missed a big chunk of time, and even being back in shape with out having a TC to ease into game action and game speed a few extra vet days would be wise. Course he could be hurt, its just a possibility. 1 hour ago, Floyd said: Mo is definitely an upgrade from Fenner at SAM No doubt. The question is, do we gain more from the upgrade of MO at sam then we lose having fenner at db? Either way if both guys are on the field im not worrying about it. 1a and 1b for the best sam in the league. I hope corney is back and healthy soon. He was reallying turning the corner before he got hurt. He is going to make a tough decision next year at DE. Tracker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It happens. Some athletes never come back at all from career-threatening injuries, and some are never quite the same again. I would think this would apply to great majority.

AKAChip Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 It will always amuse me that since the defence has been better since Fenner has been out, people assume there’s a correlation. Fenner will be an asset to this defence and as much as I think Leggett is great, to say he’s a huge upgrade over Fenner is grossly uninformed at best. wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
