WLB

This is our weakest position on defense imo. Bower looks exactly like he did 2 seasons ago that got him eventually bench for Fisher. I don't understand how Bower and Mends battled for this position all spring, and eventually Jones joined the race in summer for this spot, yet neither Mends or Jones have gotten their shot to overtake Bower. I've seen quite a few posts about how losing Lomax has been biggest loss from last year, I actually think it's Fisher. I'd like to see somebody get their shot at WLB but I doubt it knowing the staff.

KF is a loyalist and is complacent with experience over raw talent. See past seasons with RB and WR and many other positions. These guys need a shot because Bower is awful! Snyder and Bower must be REALLY good in practice to be the clear starters....

Bowers play doesn't compare to what Fisher did last year IMO. At this point we'd be better off running a 4-2-5 when/if Josh Jackson is healthy.

We could use an athletic upgrade in almost every defensive position cept maybe CB (KF and staff can't get away with what they do at other positions there) I believe there's some talent on the bench just maybe not kissing enough KF butt in practice, who knows but If given some reps there's got to be others on the team better than bowers and Snyder for Pete's sake! Every year KF gifts at least 3 skill positions to kids with no skill position skills! WHY KF??!! Why?!?!?!?!

You guys are idiots, and I'm not talking about bringing up the notion that our wlb play has been subpar.

I would honestly say Safety is your weakest position, from what I saw. Can't remember his name (Was a bit drunk), but we ran all over one of your safeties yesterday. He busted coverage a few times, and didn't complete his tackles.

See thread called Defensive Struggles for my opinion.
