    Well .5 sack and 1 FF isn't bad so far stat wise, but he doesn't look like he used to to me. There was talk of him being just the same (I believe from him and teammates), but maybe it was just another off-season feel good story.

    He doesn't look as fast around the edge, and looks like he can't shed a block to save his life. He never had a lot of pass rush moves, he was mostly a one trick pony....and maybe his one trick is about tricked out.

    I'm not saying he wasn't a good signing, and it also could be a bit early to make judgments. But from preseason and 2 reg season games, I'm a tad let down. He's not living up to the nic-name so far and I wonder if this is going to end up to a similar let down like Robaire.

    But enough negativity, we're 2-0 :woot2:

    He's a waste of space, and by the look of todays game Odom was worth the money he signed up for and we maybe should have anted up.

    I thought Odom got a serious injury in pre-season?

    He's probably talking about Laboy.

    He may be a downgrade from Odom or LaBoy, but in fairness, both those guys were inconsistent/injured a lot. Both really only showed up most their last year here.

    I don't question Jevon's dedication, just whether or not he's the type of starter some are expecting. But otoh, maybe we see Ford/Ball/Hayes more.

    To be honest, we may have to guys come home that won't light it up....McCariens hasn't looked really good. Definitely not getting much seperation. Maybe the old saying "too good to be true" will apply here. And again, maybe we see another guy get reps here if JM's play isn't up to par. I wonder Hawkins will leap frog Chris Davis and Paul Williams for PT. Fish sometimes doesn't let rooks play much, but it probably won't take much talent wise to leap frog either guy :-/

    hes old, give him a break..You couldn't honestly expect him to be back to him old self after years in philly of being average at best, could you?

    Coming back to Nashville might rejuvenate him, but hes not going to be near what he used to be.

    Keeps this up and he gets 8 sacks, I won't be upset at that.

    Plus we play Houston twice, so he should get 3 there. :brow:

    lol correct gunny.

    Kearse should be a pass rush specialist. He is missused on 1st and 10 run D IMO

    I'll agree this far he has looked pretty so so although in preseason I thought he should a lot of promise. Today's half a sack and FF were both from one play that KVB created weren't they? I'll take it. I will reserve serious critism until they have a couple more games.
