Lofton graded near dead last in the entire NFL for MLB's last year.

Interested to read that. Also, I have slammed both Jenkins and Harper for their performance in the past, I used PFF rankings for the 2011 year to do so. In 2011 GW was still around and the D wasn't all that bad, but Harper was 73rd in the league and ranked lower than most LBs when in coverage;Jenkins wasn't much better.

Curtis Lofton and Cam Jordan are the two guys who can honestly say they putit on the line last year consistently! Sure alot of guys showed something towards the end of the season when Vitt was back cracking a whip! Most guys must've took it easy during training camp cause guys just weren't ready for the start pf the season and with the money these guys make there isn't an excuse to mail it in even if your coach is gone along with basically all the guys willing to discipline guys for not giving effort or not listening to the game plan or not executing their job! LOFTON HAS MY SUPPORT CAUSE HE EARNED IT!

He and most of the players on D suffered from "Doing someone else' job", instead of "Do your job".

Some players seemed to follow Spags and do as little as possible.

I think it was mostly "was that my job or was that your job?".

This is what happens when a veteran coach installs a brand new defense that nobody is seeming to grasp and you don't make any changes...

Which is a reason I think he was fired

I'm excited to see him work with Payton and Ryan too.

The LB corps will be much improved this year - both in personnel and scheme - so I'm looking for Lofton to have a great year along with a much better performance from the likes of Hawthorne.

I just hope that the defensive unit doesn''t suffer any significant injuries during the offseason OTAs and the preseason!
