William's D got solved the same way when he was in Jacksonville. Just like Capers has in Green Bay. This new DC plays Jimmy Johnson D, nothing fancy but highly effective, just like it should be, great push with the front 4 and and ocassional lb. crashing the qb., safe but stout. Don't be to suprised if Shanle stays and thrives in his D.

Ya think?!

Good one lmao

I'm disappointed Shanle said that. It makes me think there may have been some tension towards the end.

Shanle is a very smart player and will likely make a good NFL coach someday. He probably spoke up about the schemes in meetings and was shot down.

Shanle's not nearly as bad as many say but certainly isn't what I'd call a good LB. He's a lot like Fujita... average.

I think so too. His football IQ is very high and he's typically in position to make plays. If he has some more athleticism, he could have been a very good football player imo. I think he'll make a great position coach for someone down the road... very fundamental.

That's an insult to Fujita! As mediocre as Fujita was, he was smarter and FASTER than Shanle ever was. So what does that make Shanle?

Really?? Exhibit A (sound fx) has shown that he is neither smart or ever in a position to make a play. Had he been, we would be going to the dome to play the Giants.

Shanle needs to GO! He is just not effective. The players on the bench are better than him with a little coaching!

here's a new one: if we had someone better than Shanle, then that player would be on the field.


I do not think Shanle is a stud LB, but yes, he is smart, and what he said IS true. The fact he waited until GW left shows he was a team player and did what he was told, and did not undermine his 'coach'

Well HELL...lets all go over and give him a hug for being such a wonderful person!! We can get in a big circle and sing nursery rhymes together.

The level of mediocrity some of you people are willing to accept is mind boggling. Keep telling yourself that if someone else was better they would have been in there. Whatever helps you sleep at night. Keep in mind the same person putting Shanle on the field was the one to say "Roman Harper is the best player on the defense" That in itself should squash that!

In 9 YEARS!!! He has a total of 544 tackles. Avg 60.4 a year (only 389 solo)
8.5 SACKS!!! In 9 EFF'n YEARS!! wait...I got one even better that that..3 INT's!!!! 2 of which came in one year!!!

Yeah..he is great. Lets make him a LB coach, just please not here. We want our LB to be better not BELOW AVG!!

How in the world you came to that conclusion is more mind boggling Mike.
