    I guess we'll see what happens when the Spillane Train comes face to face with Hurricane Henry.

    Micky will get his shots at King Henry. But if the big boys up front hold up, his job won't be so difficult. We'll miss Bush's speed, no doubt. But Henry isn't going to be neutralized by speed. He's going to be neutralized by gang tackling, taking proper angles, getting off blocks, and form tackling.

    That is a good point. At the end of the day Spillane has the spot for a reason. Now it's time to see what he can do as the next man up.

    Im more keen to see us bring in some oline depth cause durability is an issue there. Bring back Finney or something.

    I'm going to agree with so of the media guys. Labs said fans should temper their expectations on Spillane. He will have a solid game vs the Titans and their somewhat vanilla offense. Beyond that he may struggle.

    We don't need monster hits on henry. Wrap the legs and bring him down. Spillane gets to the ball, we shall see what he does when he gets there. He tackles pretty well from what I have noticed. :cool:

    Hopefully, he doesn't think he's going to plant Henry with a high tackle like he did against the Browns' wide-out. Hit him, wrap him up, and hold on until the cavalry gets there.

    And as far as the future goes, he's going to need support from the DL and secondary to contain LJ next week. We're going to have to play 2-high and corners in bail technique with outside leverage so everyone has eyes on the line of scrimmage. Filter everything inside and shrink the field. If our corners are in trail, expecting safety support, we're going to have problems.

    As long as he doesn't end up like Josh Norman

    i believe he will be a upgrade over bush, very disappointed in bush, not real impactful at all.
