Jacobs played mainly in base defense.. He's the SAM.. Now Marsh is taking his spot and it's going to be even worse on those early downs. Jacobs was solid and decent blitzer. This team is going to run 3 LBs in base regardless of who's out there.. They just got even worse without Jacobs.

They are better without the SAM on the field. Jacobs was bad on Thursday missing gaps and being slow/getting blocked. Yes the backup is worse. I'm not saying the backup should play, they should be in nickel if they want to play zone. They need speed to make up for the scheme playing off and having to come up to tackle in space.

Jacobs barely played in that game... He got hurt on literally the 7th play of the game.. You're confusing him with somebody else, likely the rookie Chaisson.

They run plenty (they're in it most of the game) of nickel Defense with only 2 LBs, but this team is going to run 3 LBs on early downs regardless. It's their base 4-3 and they're going to continue to do it.
