Re: Sean Payton explains Marcus Davenport's low snap count vs. Bucs
No, a different player. Sounds like Dennis Allen wants Davenport in the same package as Rankin in running situations. This makes perfect sense with Allen's complex defense. Especially with the younger players. They can all master their role with veterans like Cam in there in all the situations.

Re: Sean Payton explains Marcus Davenport's low snap count vs. Bucs
The stranger part is Davenport was drafted to get after the QB. Trey also wasn't a top 15 pick. Its not supposed to take a top 15 picks 3 years in the league.
I hope he shows what he showed early on this year. He started off looking like he was going to be a monster. I remember posting multiple times on the board how much pressure and how solid he was playing. There's been a fall off and it is noticeable. I hope maybe this past week was a kick in the balls for him and lights that fire. |

Once he starts finishing his rushes better and gets opportunities to make a play rather than facilitate for someone else, the sacks will come." Got to give him time boss. Just like Rankins ... & he's a beast now. |

Let's see what he does this week. I think you're going to see more. If you go back and look you can see the praise I was leaping on him. It wasn't just his pressure on the QB it was also his ability against the run and pursuit. There's been a drop off and I'm not going to ignore that just like I dont ignore when he is playing really good But our dline is a strength and our defense is coached well with good talent. Rankins looked good during his first season. There was a huge drop off where he started looking like Ellis. Last year he turned it back up. Shame he got I hired again. Not being funny but I forgot he was on the team still because I've literally not heard his name once. Nothing wrong with giving time, but also nothing wrong about an honest assessment when a player looks phenomenal and nothing wrong with stating when they're not. I am honest about the good and bad. It is sort of like when we signed Ginn and people said he had a problem with catching at times. People were criticized for that, but people in the know were well aware. Now that same person who criticized others is also offering the same sentiment |

Same goes for Klein in the LB squad. They just do their jobs as defined.
