When you factor that the NT1 and DT3 are struggling and barely commanding one-on-one blocking, it's really amazing what Jordan's been able to accomplish... But the guy that's gotta help Jordan is the one that lines up next to him and that's the DT3, Rankins and he's not been the interior force as advertised... |

Personally, I'm looking for more from the other side - Onyemata, Davison, (now Bromley) and the DE rotation. |

Jordan is going to have his boy's back. When Rankins is double-teamed, he's getting rolled up, not holding nor pushing the point of attack... Believe that was the reason D.A. went with the larger, stronger Onyemata and moved Rankins to defensive end to get some production out of him... While it's not the Holy Grail, Rankins was even graded by PFF behind not only Onyemata, but Davison as well - ouch... Am with y'all and hoping Nielsen can somehow turn this coal into a diamond... |
It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...
