Taco918 Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 My money says that Farmer's proposed picks last yr were rejected by Tweedledumb and Tweedledumber who had final say. My money says that Farmer picked the best talent available, for both the current and future, to keep and solidify his job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clevfan4life Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 were't we marveling at some of the plays Mingo was making in the preseason? The dude is the most freakish athlete on the defense, a lot of us here have been wondering whether it might be a good idea to use him as a coverage LB'er given that we have Sheard and Kruger on the roster. Might it not be a bad idea to develop a LB'er that can follow some of the best athletes in the game, ie Graham or Davis, into the flat? We seem to be developing a pass rush strategy that relies on collapsing the pocket instead of running around it...which I kind of think makes sense if you have the guys to carve it off properly. Mingo may not be suited for that. I think he would make one of the nastiest blitzing LB'ers in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickers Posted October 10, 2014 Report Share Posted October 10, 2014 No, you blow. They put him coverage because he is better at it than Sheard and Kruger. Try reading the comments from Pettine instead of making dumb-ass statements. Get it through your thick skull. Mingo is a B-U-S-T!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clevfan4life Posted October 10, 2014 Report Share Posted October 10, 2014 Mingo was our sack leader last year wasn't he? Bust? really? Last year Kruger put up a giant facepalm but so far this year he's our best defensive player so let's ease on up on the bust talk regarding Mingo. It's his 2nd year as well as his 2nd defensive scheme. He's basically a rookie all over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyceRolls Posted October 10, 2014 Report Share Posted October 10, 2014 He's basically a rookie all over again. Especially when you consider his limited playing time last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 My money says that Farmer picked the best talent available, for both the current and future, to keep and solidify his job. In 2014? Sure, but in 2013, the "last year" to which I'm sure Unsym was referring, Farmer did not have that say... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmusch Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Mingo's pressure caused those two sacks today, back-to-back. Those plays just happened to be when he had his hand in the dirt. They need to utilize him like that more often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted October 13, 2014 Report Share Posted October 13, 2014 We seem to have a number of LBs who play better with their hand in the dirt... Maybe play a 7-0-4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
