Bud Dupree

[pittbull]

Just curious on your opinion on Dupree so far this season. I know he's had some injuries, and I haven't watched too intently much this season until today. To me...today anyway...he looked awful. OUt of position, bad angles, missed tackles. Like I said, I haven't watched that closely this year so I'm wondering if he had a bad day or if our expectations were too high.

yeah I thought about him today. And it wasn't pleasant thoughts.

He did dick today. Nothing. Not even a ******* tackle. I thought he was out of the game. While James Harrison sits deactivated again. Sad.

 

[Chicoman]

Dupree had a WHOPING....0 Tackles today in a game in which he lost the edge more times than I care to count!

I never thought anyone could play as piss poor as Jarvis Jones! Today I saw Bud Dupree pull out his worst Jarvis Jones-Esque performance! A HORSESHIT PERFORMANCE....not even close to starting material in the NFL while we Deactivate a Future HoF'er before the gamein James Harrison. Why I'm not sure....but he can't be any worse than Dupree.

 

[Steel Ballin]

Yeah he pretty much sucks.

Bud looked pretty average, at best, today. The whole team, minus Shazier, AB, Boz, and maybe Bell (simply because game plan reduced his production), looked pedestrian. I am looking and hoping for more out of the bigger and smarter Bud this year. Not flashes, but consistent domination on the edge.

Today he was terrible, no edge contain, no rush, no strength at the point. Saw him knocked back by the RB at least twice today.

Dupree needs to be more consistent. Just 1 assisted tackle yesterday. Heyward and Tuitt were quiet with just two total tackles each. Play Harrison on running downs...then rotate in Dupree?

Low football IQ. Guy continually gets sucked in on plays when he should be in contain. Not impressed with his run defense at ALL!

Didn't notice any QB pressure either. Are we in for another Jarvis? He showed promise last year though.

don't think so, JJ lacked skills that Dupree has. I think is mental, coming back from injury and all

"Potential" is for college players - you come to the pros you better ******* produce

I'm leaning towards another spindly legged Jarvis bust, he's too light to take on the OL and stop the run - I saw him pancaked on his *** many times, the Jags abused his side

Both games the Steelers lost they ran the ball down their throats and both QBs threw for little yards.

Dupree's pass rush isn't the issue, it is his run D.
