Double true dat. We could've picked any available FA safety available and plugged them into his position and gotten the same number of plays. He traded in all passionhe played with for his contract extension and is now just going through the motions. Always 1/2 step late where he's needed.
LB play so far, rather than loss of Jenkins, has been our biggest issue so far today. Not saying Jenks wouldn't help, b/c he'd obviously demand more respect and cause more disruption on his own than Pouha. But, the plays have generally been there for the ILBs to make and they're not making them.
