Tunch praises Moats

Fan them flames brother I'm with ya. Let's go Steelers!

 

I feel your stokedness. I want more from camp. I want video evidence. I want a game against another team. I want these guys to quit getting hurt already. thats like 8-9 guys sitting out already. do they stretch at all? for coming in healthy to camp, we went downhill quick. you can't make the club from the tub. at least adams is out there getting an azz whoopin and not sitting out. he's at least going to fight for a spot. good enough or not. I like that at least.

I figured moats would become much better under a team that knows pass rushing OLB'ers and how to coach them. that's his spot, not ILB or a 4-3 OLB. he's a 3-4 OLB. the dude's built well. he's got a little of that JH look to him, size wise at least. we can bring out his skills here. a clear case of being played out of position at buffalo.

 

Moats the player you were least excited about the Steelers signing, I wouldn't be surprised to see him get 4-5 sacks as a backup OLB.

 

I too will defer to Tunch's opinion but tempered with the fact that training camps are littered with guys who showed promise the first week of camp practicing against their own teammates and then once the preseason games started that spark didn't translate on the field. I hope he does thrive but I also hope they don't have to depend on it.

 

he's looking good now and with beefalo coming in, I think he'll look a lot better. he may be showing a pride thing during that time.

I like guys with a chip on their shoulders and I think that radiates to the others. to a point I see a lot of our vet backups taking on a leadership role. Wallace- line intensity. moats- intensity and drive. DHB- mental help. will allen- diversity. gay- drive and knowledge.

I like what I've been hearing about these guys so far. we may or may not have to count on them this year, but it's nice to know we have them and they are helping us get better.

 

You're right I don't have any clout, just knowledge

 

I must admit I am letting the hype get to me also. Division winners and playoffs. Good thing about Moats. I'm a little bit apprehensive about Worilds/Jones ability to stay injury free.

 

He looked good at times, Howard Jones has looked good at times to, Chris Carter has stiff competition.
