Quote:I don't understand why Telvin just can't play OTTO or SAM? I mean I literally don't understand, so can you mb football intellectuals tell me why we simply cannot have Telvin and Jack on the field at the same time?


"Scheme" > Personell seems like a really dumb argument get em both out there

This. 

 

Though generally I think you draft players to fit the scheme, somehow there has to be enough flexibility in the coaching staff and the scheme as it pertains to the OTTO position to accomodate having Jack, Poz and Smith on the field at once.  Unquestionably, those are the best three LBs we've got, even if you see Telvin Smith as a liability in coverage.  But as I think more about this as I type, I remember that the OTTO position has its own coach and its own meeting room apart from the other LBs.

 

But I will say this:  havig to figure out a way to have Telvin Smith, Poz, and Jack on the field at the same time is a great problem to have.
