Everyone that thinks he's playing 5 tech almost exclusively is wrong. Just watch were he lines up every game. Yeah but still in Bowles schemes Dline is seldom tasked with pusihng upfiled for the QB , its more occupy lanes and blockers . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTM Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 7 hours ago, Sperm Edwards said: Good to see a few in here aren't blind to what's been going on. Maccagnan surviving while Bowles gets fired certainly convinces me that this whole time Bowles was really above Maccagnan in the hierarchy, bossed the GM around, made all the bad draft picks, and forced Macc into any/all of the bad FA pickups. Bowles was also the one working the phones to bang out trades with other teams' GMs, and he was the one who nixed any potentially beneficial trades we didn't make. Luckily Chris Johnson saw through this, and has given Maccagnan a promotion to GM Actually For Real This Time after 4 years of doing nothing but take marching orders from Bowles. I love how the few draft picks that haven't busted were evidence of Macc's smarts, and all the rest are because Bowles was putting his thumb on the scales. Obviously Bowles was the one who really wanted Christian Hackenberg. We now know the truth. Bowles also demanded we make no OL or RB picks in the first 4 draft rounds over these past 4 years because he doesn't like running the football. The REAL real rebuild begins next year.

He's just not a pass rushing DLineman. He wasn't in college and sure as hell isn't now. I could make a case that he's better off fighting double teams, stuffing the run than he would be as a passrusher. First, he never tested as an athletic freak which all good passrushers do. He's a slug off the snap, something that is not changing going forward. I guess I'm just saying he is what he is.....a stout dlineman, with no get off.

I'm starting to agree with that position. The more I've focused on #92, I wonder what if he was on a Jim Schwartz 4-3 Defense? Williams would be SLAYING opposing QBs because he'd face less double teams & do less occupying of lineman. His surprising quickness, in addition to his length and mass, through the gaps would be blowing up opposing backfields constantly. He gets good pressure considerg his 3-4 responsibilities to keep the LBs clean. I could understand Leo walking b/c his #'s don't commensurate with a BIG $$$ extension, and see him THRIVING if he were to sign with a 4-3 defense where he just has to blow through the OLine and do "his thing" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watch him religiously and I think he is a good player....just someone that is massively overrated by our fanbase. When I see everyone talking about him as 3-4 end taking on double teams every play I call them out because it's just not true. I wish there was a breakdown out there showing what position he lines up during the game because when I watch him he's mostly inside which is what some posters think is a position he would be thriving in.

Again I can buy a top end filet mignon but If I overcook it on the grill do I blame the butcher. At some point you'd figured Todd would learn to cook. Yes, it seems mac is such a bad gm, he often listens to his HC when it comes to drafting. So if bowles decides who to draft, why is mac even employed ?
