pjfootballer Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Hey guys, I don't make new threads very often, I think this is only my 8th. I was wondering, do you think Marcus Washington should take over as the MLB since he's always around the ball carrier. Move Marshall back to Holdman's spot to cover the TE and put Holdman or Rocky in Marcus old spot since Holdman sucks in coverage. I hope I got the WSLB and the SSLB correct. Correct me if I'm wrong. Just wondering if it could be a band-aid until next season to try to get a MLB in here with some size and speed. I still like Marshall, but I think he is better suited to Lavar's old spot. He had some awesome games for us when LA was hurt those few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin11 Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Nah, Marcus isn't a good LB at coverage either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
909997 Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 no we need him to line up against TE's so its better he stays OLB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnLockesGhost Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Two things I want for Christmas: A DE that can play the run AND pass rush, And a MLB, so we can move Lemar back to the weak side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjfootballer Posted November 20, 2006 Author Share Posted November 20, 2006 no we need him to line up against TE's so its better he stays OLB Ok, so I did have it backwards. Leave Holdman where he is at and switch Marshall to Washington's spot, since he's good in coverage and let MW just go tackle anything that moves.

redman Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Marshall is a good pass defender and a good blitzer. Those are skills more appropriate to a OLB, particularly the Sam (who tends to square off against the opposing TE), far more than they are for a MLB.

That's why I was wondering should they switch because Marshall is a far superior cover LB than Washington and MW is a better tackler and he persues the ball carrier better. Like I said, maybe experiment with it this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDoyler23 Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 It seems that the Skins would be better off with a bigger, physical run stopping MLB...like a....GULP.... Jeramiah Trotter MLB. He was stuck behind a pourous set of DT's and had to guess where the rb was going most of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
