    You gotta imagine that's an underranking. There's not much national recognition outside of Cushing but the backers were a significant part of the #2 ranked defense last year.

    i'm assuming if the writer had seen "demarco" on the roster he would have given the linebacking core a top four ranking. two weeks to training camp.so close yet so far.

    If Wiley is as good as Brooks Reed (he should ultimately be better) then our LB's should be ranked much higher, although not as high as when we had Mario.

    This article was a piece of crap the moment they put the Chiefs and Jaguars linebacker crew in FRONT of the Texans.
