Cam missing / Dion ran (over)

[signman]

Wasn't Cameron Wake lined up against the Pats second string Right Tackle all game? Did Cam even have a tackle (let alone any sacks or QB pressures)?

Anyone else notice how poorly Dion Jordan played (plays) the run? He gets bulled over by O-Lineman.

I know people get mad the Jordan isn't getting more snaps, but there has to be a reason the staff is protecting him and I don't think it is the shoulder anymore.

Well from what I seen on multiple plays Cam was just getting strangled and held out there. Yes, I know there is holding on every play but he was getting mugged.

Wake was held on several plays. Dion is playing out of position because the coaches are dumb asses. I liked what they did with him covering ****Kowski but I don't think that happened much.

Dion an Cam need to play at the same time !!
maybe both on the right side of left or something other than the BASIC 4-3
both are pass rushers yes, but it shows our hand when they don't play on running downs.
As a #3 overall you expect Von Miller production.
maybe Wake is on the trade block?

It was beyond embarrassing on New England's final scoring drive. Dion's performance on those final plays beginning on the 13 yard line was every bit as inept as anything Clabo managed all year. Nobody wants to talk about it or concede it because he's our prized rookie.

Until yesterday I was among the group wanting more playing time for Jordan. Now I see how weak and vulnerable he is. Jason Taylor from his opening snap as a rookie was never that much of a creampuff against the run. New England literally shoved Jordan several yards deep into the end zone on their final scoring play. No leverage at all. But as I emphasized in a thread last night, Jordan was hardly alone. Wheeler and Jones happily joined him in being physically abused on those red zone plays.

Jones takes the worst angles and provides the least amount of effort of any safety in the league. On that deep lob to the right that Gronkowski nearly caught in triple coverage, Jones was guarding Gronkowski but then looked to the right and decided the play was over, before the ball was even thrown. Gronkowski separated from Jones easily and Jones was pathetically late arriving on the scene. It was no fault of Jones that the play didn't succeed. It can be argued that the turning point of the game was Gronkowski's 23 yard catch against Jones in the middle of the third quarter. That was a few plays after the missed field goal. New England had 2nd and 10 at our 41 and was no guarantee to score the way their pass offense had struggled.

Wake's knee is still giving him issues. He isn't 100%.
