I agree, but I'm not talking about that. I'm just saying missing under 30 yards is extremely uncommon and should definitely be a cause for concern.

Something has gone horribly wrong in this thread...

Shanle
 

This confirms it he has to go!

i didnt want to start the same thread i did a few weeks ago, but yes, shanle was bad again today.

Shanle has 0 Tackles and 1 assist in this BAL game. There is no excuse for those numbers... A line backer with no tackles and only 1 assist! Against a team with 208 NetYards Rushing!

Compared to:
Vilma 8T/3A
Clark 7T/2A

This has been going on all year long with whoever he has in coverage, its time to upgrade both OLBs this offseason

ronnie lott has called sharper a special player.

sharper has called shanle under rated.

many of you, on the other hand are disloyal.

let me quess.

you're LSU fans.

Yeah its hard to think about both spots because we don't know what J.Casillas would have been like in coverage, sadly he went down in the final preseason game when he shouldn't have even been playing :mad:

But Shanle definitley needs to go, i don't care where, but he needs to be let go or traded i don't mind which, he is atleast 2 or 3 steps behind on every play and when its a situation like 3rd and 18, opponents go straight after shanle and pick up 20 yards plus.

OLB has got to be one of the spots we have to address this offseason, gaping hole right there because Shanle is just as bad as "that guy who we won't name" who played CB for us in 2007-2008.

Did anyone on defense at least try to put up a fight yesterday?

Not that I noticed, Charleston was getting thrown about every play, Vilma wrongly Blitzed and left their TE unmarked for that 20 yard TD, Torrence played 15 yards back and let them get first downs, then got burnt.
Hundreds of missed tackles lead to Ray Rices 50 yard run of the first play after we scored.
Just an overall miserable performance by the defence, they need to man up big time.

Nope...none of that was Reggie's doing, didn't help his cause by losing 14 yards on the second to last drive, but the D is to blame for the loss.
