Well he did have that one poster from another site looking for him (if that wasn't an alternate account)
he should go find him.
You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to bermudasteel again.
Let's add some worthwhile knowledge to this thread...
ILB ought to be a strength for us next year. I think the addition of Avery Williamson was outstanding. Personally, he is just as good as Vince and, listen to this, Outcoached, he's better than Robert Spillane.
The return of Bush on the field (& Buddy, prayfully) puts this defense back at elite level...

Another huge Tomlin blunder, Spillane played the 4th most snaps on defense, by far the most by any ILB, he played 59 snaps to Vince Williams 35 snaps in that playoff loss, Williamson who had been getting better IMO, played only 13 snaps. The guy that's been on IR for 4-5 weeks or whatever it was, and was obviously not in game shaped, played that much.
Avery is a UFA.
I said in one thread how none of the guys that sat for whatever reason came into that clown game playing well. Ben ,Pouncey ,Spillane, and even Watt didn't light it up.
When you are struggling late season you don't sit people. You need them not to be rusty. If someone is coming off injury work them in don't force a **** load of reps in a win or go home situation.
Just bad decision making after bad decision making.
That was one of the obvious adjustments Cleveland made. They were man on man with Tuitt using Teller, they simply ran away from Watt, and doubled Heyward. That's easy to do when the defense is only using 2 DL, 3 guys occupy Cam and Tuitt, you ran the opposite way of Watt, and that leaves you with your 320lb LT taking on our 240lb ROLB on a running play, that's a huge mis-match. Cleveland is a traditional running team using their RB's not a QB like Baltimore. We dressed Cam, Tuitt, AluAlu, Wormley, Davis, Mondeaux. I don't know why you wouldn't run a **** load of 3 DLinemen against them. Oh yeah my bad, that's not what we do.
Then they just took our passing game, everything was quick, not giving our pass rush a chance to get there, and with our Tomlin, err Tampa 2 with the safeties deep and Derrick Brooks, err I mean Spillane covering Jarvis Landry, all that quick **** was open, or we'd just decide not to cover the RB out of the backfield at all. Remember we were all over Mayfield in week 17 without Heyward and Watt, because they tried to go downfield, there's another adjustment they made.
Tomlin out coached severly.

Hey Six Rings whats up?
this goes on the list with if your first round pick doesn't start as a rookie it was a bad pick
You'd be better off looking up stuff he got right. Smaller list. Much smaller.
no he thinks Spillane > Bush

Spillane may have played BINCE out of a job due to two factors, cap hit & not much drop off if any. We should sign AVERY on another cap friendly deal as he could fit in nicely as well and cheaper then BINCE (sorry Bince but $$$cap$$$ is talking this year)
