Dee Ford needs much more than that. He's having to re-learn how to ****ing play football. I don't want to hear about the "transition to a new position." He's learning to play OLB. It's not like he played ****ing punter at Auburn and we're transitioning him to OLB. At the worst, he lines up in the wrong spot, or overpursues, or gets eaten up by a blocker. This is just pure cluelessness.

It is a big transition and rookies have no time with the new cba rules to adjust. Fisher missed plenty of assignments as a rookie. We just forget because we've moved on. I don't like ford's progress either. But I said the same shit about Fisher last year. He deserves time. Fisher looked like absolute dogshit until the final few games of last season.
