Didn't Jones say some stuff implying that he preferred to play DE when we switched to the 4-3?

As soon as they signed Reed, this was a logical prediction. I think we'll see a lot of Jones at LE early in games, on 1st downs. Once the Chiefs have a lead of 2+ scores or on 2nd and 3rd down, we'll see Jones kick inside with Reed and Charlton on the edge. I think it can actually wreck a lot of defenses. I'm excited to see it.

Holy **** I trust Steve Spags over anyone whatever he thinks we should do go for it. ****ing sounds like a plan to me.

I don't see any issue with it on run downs, even though I hope they mix it up there and slide him inside sometimes. His last year rushing as a 5-tech he did get 15.5 sacks, so I don't think moving out is a problem, and brings about the question if they'll run more of a 4-3 Under that not only fits the collective players better but that Clark and Reed both know intimately.
To be honest, it probably also improves the interior run-stopping. I'm sure he slides inside on obvious passing downs, where he's got that power to get to the QB quickly and they put Taco or Danna on the outside. |

You have the worst football opinions on this board. You realize that right?

Unless we sign Houston or Ingram, I see this as our best option. We should be pretty good against the run with that lineup. Then we can bump Jones inside for Nnadi and sub Taco in on 2nd & long / 3rd down.

Justin Tuck in Spagnuolo's Giants teams was also unfamiliar with 4-3 end at one point in his career until they had him in there on certain downs for the better of the rotation. Lo and behold, guys who are the NFL's best interior rushers can also do damage at DE if asked, and then you got to see fresher players at the other DL positions as a result. And frankly, Jones is a better player than Justin Tuck was. Think of how good Chris Jones is and ask yourself if there's ANY spot on the DL that couldn't use his amazing athletic gifts. Now move him around all the time. Or play him according to matchups if the opposing offense has a weak link against Jones' strengths as a player. ****... put Jones at ****ing CB if it means we're going to get the best possible defense. I don't care. And I think that's what Spags is really in tune with. |
