D.J. is our last remaining elite defender, as far as I’m concerned—and it certainly makes me wonder: who will wear the mic’d helmet now?

I have no doubt that a backup can fill in for DJ, since we weren’t asking DJ to do anything special this year. I don’t mean to be sarcastic or sound bitter either. DJ and Champ were wasted this year, so at least when we go all game without a single weakside blitz of devestating ferocity now, it will finally make sense.

Slowik’s defensive philosophy and scheming remind me of building codes. Instead of elevating the standards of building practices, the use of force within the industry forced all standards down to the lowest denominator. Slowik’s defense reduces great players to no better than the guy next to them, while we watch other rebuilding defenses capitalize on their few great players skills.

well i have an idea! lets put K2 in at MLB and move Webster back outside to fill D.J.’s spot. This seems like a very interesting idea to me.
