    He said he was going to fix his tacos and he did that, mayne.
    Now on to improving his covering skills.

    We definitely need him to stay healthy with so many other defensive players out.

    Thinking he will be Mike To'o To'o t'omorrow with Hansen getting his first start.Or they just leave it and let Hewitt get his first start at Mike. Both have 0 snaps. Should be interesting.

    Not trying to be condecending, but just in case...

    Sam = strong side (side w/TE) outside side linebacker

    Mike = middle linebacker

    Will = Weak outside linebacker

    Thanks. I've watched football for decades and never heard those terms used. I didn't take it as condescending.

    What defense are you playing? How many LBs are there?

    Middle Linebacker like in this defense. Lines up the same, but with additional coverage responsibilities.

    This defense calls them SAM, MIKE and WILL.

    We've talked about how much fast To'oTo'o looks on the field, but watching that video I'm impressed by how well he stands up blocks from guys that are clearly bigger than him. I mean, that play where he just BLEW threw the tight end's block was super impressive. He's really packing some impressive strength in that smaller frame.

    These charts drive me crazy.
    I don't know what they mean, and it makes me think I need a new eyeglass prescription.

    They're measuring "separation prevented"? How do they even measure that? Just guess at what the separation would have been if the LB had not been covering them?
