Was hoping he‘d be a solid vet.

He wasn‘t.

Agreed.  Knew he was weak in run support but his supposed strength was coverage.  He sucked at both.  Would much rather let the kids like Edwards, Taylor, Bradley, etc. play.

The report on his was he struggled against the run but was good in coverage.

Both were false, he didn't struggle against the run he was atrocious and he wasnt good in coverage.

Was hoping he could be at least average but he was just really awful.

Good luck selling insurance!

Took them way too long to bench him. 

Well it‘s not like the stud LBers behind him turned on the heat though..

Edwards has made some really nice plays against the run in limited time. He should have always been in. Might have been able to hold the Cowboys to under 7,000 yards rushing a few weeks ago with him in there.

No surprise there. He did not fit here at all, but he got put in some bad spots too. How is he supposed to cover wide receivers?

Told you so, when we got him..and Naturally I was right and bashed for it. Did not like the acquisition to begin with.

You mean him covering Tyreek Hill wasn't a good idea?

He was nothing more than a band aid and someone with experience in the same type of system Gannon was going to install, so it kinda made sense to bring him in.  But after watching how poorly he played it was time to move on.  They need to give more play time to some of our younger players that may have more of a future role here anyway ... namely Taylor, Edwards, Bradley, and Johnson.

A POS that ended up rolling off of the Howie turd pile.

Amazing the amount of anal dumpage Howie can produce.

Par for the course on this site, don't take it personnel.

I have to say... I'm not surprised given how badly he played. He was atrocious and he was taking away time from young guys like Edwards, Taylor and hell even Bradley.

That said, at the time he was signed I did not hate it. In fact I thought it was going to be a decent signing. He seemed to be an upgrade over what we had but my god he really wasn't.

To be honest, he was brought in because Jonathan Gannon was familiar with him.

No loss. Let the young guys play and see what they have in them.

With this supposedly being a rebuild year that should have been the plan from the beginning.

But you just know Howie can't help himself. And you know he can't do that. Why? Because rebuilding a roster means doing it mostly through the draft. So if Howie truly committed to that he'd be exposing himself to being fired.
