No, not in my opinion. I don't hold the opinion that he's weak in the lower body. I'm merely pointing out that it was a concern of the scouts when he came out of college.

He's not a 3-4 NT, that's a fact. He might be able to learn it, but as of right now, he's a 4-3 NT. You countered that fact by saying that you thought he could overcome it with his strength. I only said that if those scouts were correct and he does lack lower-body strength, it will be HARDER for him to be a 3-4 NT, not easier.

My personal opinion is that I don't know what these guys are capable of, but considering how mightily they struggle with Gunther's base defense, I'm inclined to NOT pile on anything else for them to get confused with.

Why would the Chiefs elect to use Quinton Caver over his a**? I don't get it.

Well, he was hurt last year. And he also got in Vermeil's doghouse. We all know how Crybaby handles such things.

i'm kinda worried about that...

the samoan gossip mill doesn't think that junior and mr. squat rack have not spent a lot of time together so far...

True about the injuries. I forgot about that. What did he do to get into Vermeil's doghouse?
:hmmm:

Anything will beat the 0-0 defense we ran last year.

except for i've seen something before about Savaii not staying focused and doing more partying than working out.


could be bull ... but it could be the reason why savaii has yet to show any of the potiential the team raved about when they drafted him.




i still don't see how our defensive line coach still has a job

Cool. I really don't know if he can pull it off or not, but instinct tells me he can. He definitely has the size and strength to man the position. I agree, he could struggle early on as a NT, but I believe with added reps he could become a solid NT. Will it work? I don't know, but I'm hopeful he can make the transition because with our speed at LBer, I think it's a good idea to have the 3-4 package as an option and I see Junior as the long-term candidate for NT.

What are you basing your opinion on?

It's a fact he had weak leg strength coming out of college. It's also a fact he doesn't have much football experience and zero experience with playing NT in a 3-4.

he's strong, but not nfl dt strong, in the lower body...

he got away with being strong (by college standards) and agile when he was in college, but never got into weight training like the dt who played beside him, olshanski or something like that...

now, as he is beginning to learn actual technique, he seems to get pushed around too much on too many plays and then looks real good on others...

i don't think he could play nt in a 3-4, but gun may have other ideas...

btw, don't get me wrong, i'm rooting for junior, big time; i'm just a little concerned about his attitude towards professional football...

Don’t blame him for not liking it, squats is a learned technique and he could easily injure himself if not doing it right.
But this is professional sports, if he can’t handle that he should be gone.

Speaking of coaches, I don't see how our secondary coach has a job
