I disagree with 99.9% of this "Lavar @ MLB crap!"

Lavar is very fast and physical, with this comes the idea from coaches, that he should be a blitzer or pass rusher.

I will say this again this year. When you blitz or told to blitz, its a 50/50 chance that you make contact with objective.

Therefore if he does not make the sack and the guy who he gambled on, catches the ball, is it Lavars fault or is it the Defensive coaches fault who calls all plays or is it the Stupid Middle linbackers stupidity??

Samething goes for a passrusher, essentialy he is a blitzer.
If he passrush on running plays hes talked about too.

Ive been there done that. You cant blitz and cover your man at the same freakin time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!It aint happening. He is talented, but not the damn talented, but when blitz are picked up, Lavar is always around the pigskin, no matter what.

Learn football fellas.

Jeez!

One other thing, when a OLB blitzes, the coaches are relying on the Safties to step up and cover the blitzers man. The only other time safties wouldnt cover a blitzers man is on Zone blitzes or in some exotic scheme thats offer all heads on this board.

In the last five years, when have we had decent cover Safeties with Lavar playing on this team??????????

Totally agree rc! It is unbelievable that this issue has taken up so many posts.

When it was first brought up it was apparent from anyone who really understands that this was not a position for LA and that should have been all! Discussion over!

It seems every month we have another "where can we use (insert name)?" Some of these players just play certain positions for a reason.

This is a team game people - we would be a terrible defence if we had 11 Lavars!
Until recently, Snyder & Allen have made a lot of really bad decisions - nobody with any sense believes this franchise will get better under their guidance
Snyder's W/L record = 45% (80-96) - Snyder/Allen = 41% (59-84-1)

Here here! -drinking

From now on, let's limit all threads to the original posts, and no subsequent posts.

No need for discussion.

You [a hogs.net "poster"] have an opinion??? Who cares!!!!

From now on, let's just sit here and stare at the pretty colors on our screen. :roll:
Back and better than ever!

Well Gosh Napoleon! What are you so angry about?

There is a difference between freelancing and leaving someone uncovered when you blitz. I think we all know the difference. I dont recall anyone here blaming Lavar for a picked up blitz. But lavar does take gambles. He sometimes plays out of position because he thinks that he has the play figured out, and then leaves a huge opening where he was supposed to be.

You said you disagree with 99% of what we are saying so does that mean you want Lavar to play MLB? Cause I think the unanimous message here was that we didn't think it was a good idea.

Back off man! I know illegal ninja moves from the government! :wink:

He was a trader. I am a football fan.

I not angry about anything and watch the name calling.

To people who sit in the stands and to people at home watching games, freelancing could be mistaken for zoning.


Do you have professional footage at home to send off to the Redskin coaches?? I am sure they are interested :?

I dont recall anyone here blaming Lavar for a picked up blitz


I was pointing out the fact that this happens in footabll, period.

But lavar does take gambles.


I know he does and its call blitzing. Blitzing is aways a gamble. Doesnt matter what player or the team he plays for.

He sometimes plays out of position because he thinks that he has the play figured out, and then leaves a huge opening where he was supposed to be.


How in the hell do you know what Lavar is thinking?? Do you have film, do you have the inside scoop? If you do, you have been holding back from us fans!

You said you disagree with 99% of what we are saying so does that mean you want Lavar to play MLB?


I disagree with the side comments and when people say he could'nt do it, when a DUD or system player like Peirce can do it. Anyhing in life becomes easier with consistentcy. He could play MLB if Greg is good with it so am I. LA has the size and mind to succeed.

YeaH, I know a little more, our goverment as well as other countires consider me a professional. :wink: Dont play with me.

Well, clearly I missed something. Who/what is a trader, or is it traitor? Is someone a traitor for not thinking that LA is a good fit at MLB? Does that make Gregg Williams a traitor for wanting Marshall there instead?

You're too angry to make any sense and you clearly wish to demean the rest of the board by saying that we don't know what we are talking about. Well, apparently our past coaches and all the sportswriters in football are dumber than you too. The only possible knock that you could have on LA is that his play is very instinctual, which sometimes leads to huge plays and sometimes leads to gaps in protection. I'm a casual fan but I know the difference between a blitz, a zone, and overpersuing. I think that LA's style of play is best suited to weakside LB, others agree with me. Its our opinion. I'm not saying that he couldn't play MLB but I think his impact would be lessened. Maybe I'm wrong but that doesn't make me an idiot or an ignorant fan.

Did you feel guilty about something?? How in the hell do you figure I demeaned the board?? (If the shoe fit wear it.) Why dont you speak for yourself. These people dont and didnt ask for your help. The board hero. Gimme a break.

or is it traitor?



Human error, please oh please forgive me :roll:

That sums up everything you have said thus far.

Maybe RSC thought you were calling him "Napolean" (which was probably intended to be some witty, yet arcane movie reference), whom RSC equates to a "traitor". I'm not sure of the etymology of the word "traitor" (or how RSC feels it relates to a famously short General), but it's clear to me that RSC was saying that "Napolean" was one, while RSC himself is but a football fan.
See ?
Sorry to get all long-winded here, but good threads don't need to turn into handfuls of crap because two guys misunderstand each other. Evolution has prepared us for the eventual "moving on" that's about to take place.
What I'm not clear on is what our country, and unnamed others, regard our very own RSC as.
"Professional" what, bro ? ROTFALMAO

Strangely enough the short frenchman never entered my mind. I couldn't figure out who was the traitor. I thought you were calling someone on the board out.

And yes I'm sure the "Napolean Dynamite" references were strange if you haven't seen the film.

I'm still not sure who you were mad at.

You know how he is. He's defending his position, as any good soldier does.
Both of you guys are on my "favorites" list.

Well, when it comes arcane signatures and movie lines no one can beat you TC! Perhaps I'll have to stick to the classics in the future!

I swear I saw RSC drawing up fire plans and counting rounds. I was just hoping that it wasn't time for the FPF!

See, I can be cryptic too!
