When I watched that play I actually said the word " beautiful " out loud . Those are game changers and I'm glad he made it cuz that's rare anymore ( seeing a Bears player on D make a great , rare type play ) ... but I also agree with you guys that he lacks speed which makes him more of a liability overall . Maybe they can use him to tutor Floyd though . Get them watching film together and showing him what to look for so he can strike when he should .
For me, it's all about next year for Floyd. They can put whatever color lipstick on it they want, but until the dude puts on more muscle, he won't really be able to penetrate like he needs to. Not sure he can can gain weight though. I want to see at what weight and muscle mass he reports in next year. This year is all about getting experience --- understanding what he is up against and then getting himself to a place next year where he can deal with the game.
Hopefully he will not lose confidence because of this year or he may never be a good rusher.

Why cant he gain 20 pounds of muscles? That would be enough for him and should be doable. I did it once, so if Floyd with all his staff cant...

Some people just can't gain and keep weight on. They had him on some program where he ate all the time and I think it ended up just being a pound or two difference. I know I don't have any problem gaining weight, but some people are just the opposite.

If that is what the coaches want, they should be able to do it, with nutricionists all the other crap
Xaos, outside of that one play he had a terrible game. He chased a lot, and flat missed some open field tackles. Hub was stating that his film day will not be one he enjoys.
Exactly.
He's SLOW and therefore can't cover for shit. He's instinctively good at run fits and that's about it. He's a bottom-of-the-depth-chart ILB only.
