MNF - Open Thread

There's a little space in every fan's heart for Atlanta at New Orleans. And if the football isn't enough, you can use this thread for fantasy discussion, discussion on naming cats, philosophical pondering if the yellow I see is the yellow you see, and debate whether the moon is, in fact, a hoax. It is.

I'm going to watch this game and imagine

how sick it would be if we had the Saints offense and Drew Brees with our D.

Saints are an example of a team with only 1 good linebacker (Vilma).

I don't think he's in the box

Question about the Seahawks

Someone mentioned it in one of the post-game posts, but should the Hawks switch to a 3-4? And do you think Mebane could make a good nosetackle? I think it’s an interesting idea. I haven’t really given it much thought but what do you guys think?

Thanks for your detail-laced contribution

by Pessimistic Optimist on Nov 2, 2009 5:56 PM PST up reply actions  

haha, sorry was feeling crass

Didn’t Mebane lose weight for this year and you’d be asking him to put it back on? I remember that discussion somewhere. I think we’d have a pretty sad 3 man front

by illwillbli on Nov 2, 2009 5:58 PM PST up reply actions  

I'd be against it for the time being. While we have, in theory, an abundance of linebackers,

it isn’t really the right fit.

You need the hybrid freak outside linebacker/ends to make it work to go along with a nose tackle and two actual ends capable of holding the point. We are more saturated with coverage-strong linebackers, and it would require some retooling of the line.

by abender20 on Nov 2, 2009 5:59 PM PST up reply actions  

I agree and disagree

I am also against it for the time being. But given our linebacker situation, isn’t it a legitimate discussion? Hill can rush the passer, and if Curry develops his pass-rushing skills, that would be one sick linebacking corps. Maybe not for next year but who knows, down the road we might. Anyways, that’s another discussion. Lets watch some Monday Night Football!
