I'm REALLY curious what kinda plan they come-up with to defend Vereen. I like Jordan but I don't think he's the answer to try and defend Vereen out the back field.
Agreed. Vereen is 5'10" 203 and 4.5 speed, who lines up all over the field. I'm thinking Jimmy Wilson, 5'11" 190 and 4.51 speed to shadow him. No way does Jordan match up.
Coyle is an idiot tbh.
Dion Jordan could lock down any tight end. We should have been using him all year long on 1st and 2nd covering tight ends.
That being said, if Coyle wasn't such an idiot, DJ could lock down vereen too.
But that won't happen because we won't use him that much, since we paid Misi 17 million.
Jordan can cover Vereen. His COD is absolutely freaking ridiculous. He has 4.54 speed which is more than any of our other LBs and more than enough to keep up with Vereen.Jordan is great vs TE's, and should have been covering them earlier. However, he does not have the speed to keep up with a little RB. Just let him pin his ears back to nail Brady.
agree with OP; this has to be his breakout game. Go DJ.. sack the QB! Go DJ.. break his ass off! Go DJ! GO DJ!!
