WRREBEL Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 I like what I see out of dqell jackson this year. He looks like he will thrive in the 4 3, but fujita and gocong are non existant. Fujita can't seem to get off blocks and is slow and so is gocong. Anyone else notice this? Also carlton mitchel coming back hopefully sends robo to waivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soju Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 The whole LB corp is useless. They're slow, and seem to not make any disruptive plays on defense. I think we need a huge upgrade. They lack acceleration and strength in both the run game and passing game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

choco Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 fug did a decent job against clark, but gocong was pretty average. nothing really much to speak of.... DQ has the same problem getting off blocks, so its not just him. gets swallowed up in traffic. we'll get some LB upgrades later on, but these guys certainly are not the worst LB unit we've fielded recently. appears to be the weakest link of the D tho....funny how youth is already playing better than our aged...

jnuh Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 Gocong is useless. Fujita I haven't noticed bad play ... but I also havent noticed good play. Djax has looked good though especially the first game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gips Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 Choco is right in the sense that DQJ runs head first into blockers and gets himself swallowed up but i think it has more to do with the blockers realizing DQJ is the only legit LB on the field so they target him while easily blocking out gocong and fujita only on an as needed basis.. DQJ when free is all over the place trying to offer up support while both gocong and fujita are way to slow, taken out early and are somewhat stationary.. None of the 3 athletically shed or evade blocks well enough.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't exactly rocket science to know the Browns current crop of linebackers aren't up to NFL standards- that was said from many points before the season even started.

cribbs is the man Posted September 20, 2011 Report Share Posted September 20, 2011 Gocong is useless. Fujita I haven't noticed bad play ... but I also havent noticed good play. Djax has looked good though especially the first game. Remember both Gocong and Fujita had no offseason really with the lock out and their injuries in camp. but I do agree, this is the weakest part of our defense and hope we get a stud next year who can really help to set the tone and be teh face of this defense (besides Haden of course ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of these three guys would likely start for any team in our conference. That's a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gipper Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 I am afraid the improvement in the LB corps will have to come in the draft.....unless someone like a Patrick Willis would become available as a FA....but I think he is signed to a long term deal with the 49ers.
