We might be pleasantly surprised by WS at linebacker. Most of us thought Gallette would not be a factor and now it looks like he may be our starter-regardless of injuries. Besides, WS may actually have good coverage skills......he did intercept a pass from Kurt Warner-cant say the same for half our secondary

I don't know who you are referring to as not thinking Gallette would be a factor. Not this guy. His success with very limited reps, the writing was on the wall.

IMO WS will be terrible in coverage, he is very slow, he has a lot of miles on him and he is nearing the end of his career. Doesn't sound like a recipe for success to me.

What I meant by that was that a lot of what I read about our defense seemed to be revolved around Butler and Wilson.....with very little reguards to Gallette. I wasn't sure myself if he would be able to perform at lb since he was mainly used as a pass rusher in a 4-3.

The minority thought he wouldn't be a factor, certainly not the majority of us.

No problem. I'm a little thin skinned about it since many of us were ridiculed for being excited about Junior's potential a couple of seasons ago
