Got other places to run?

What you mnean is that on at least six occasions Simon got knocked off the play so completely that the runner was past the line of scrimage before anybody got a chance to hit him and because the runner had speed and room to move he managed to evade tackle by the linebacker.

Interesting, before according to you the Pack didn't have success running to the right. Now you've changed your tune and admitted they had success to the right but it's because every but Simon over there sucks. As a defensive tackle Simon's responsibility doesn't end until the ball passes the line of scrimage either in the air or on foot, until that moment he is supposed to plug holes and hit ball carriers, which he didn't do very well last week.

If that book is where you got all your football knowledge it should be converted to TP.

You can go on all you like about how bad Corey Simon is, but he's still going to the Pro Bowl.

Cornerback Sheldon Brown, on the other hand, got beaten like a rented mule. When Favre shot down that duck in overtime, I was hoping and praying that it would not come down in the vicinity of #24.

what I mean is that given many offensive formations and shifts, the DT can only reasonably be expected to hold his own and allow the linebacker(s) to make tackles.

it was actually a suggestion for YOU - now beat it, loser.
