A.J. Klein

[ItsNotGonnaBeAlright]

Just wanted to show love. Defense never missed a beat when he stepped in the middle, he showed plenty of ability to read an offense and adjust the guys around him accordingly, and he was as sideline to sideline as it gets.

If Like doesn't pass protocol (and I don't think he will) I am perfectly damn fine with Klein as the Mike.

Thought he played well. The only thing I didn't understand is why he was in the nickel with TD instead of Shaq. Isn't that why we drafted Shaq was for coverage?

we played the jags

anytime your star defensive leader can go down and your defense gives up no points afterwards, that's a good thing.

fug downplaying it and fug you for trying to excuse it.

So we can't take away any positives? GTFO!

I think the plan for Shaq is let him learn behind Luke and TD and have him replace TD when he decides to retire after winning a few Superbowls. Plus he behind on reps because of injuries during camp.

Perfectly fine with an okay guy playing instead of the best linebacker in the NFL. Well okay then.

we played the jags

Yeah they where on the schedule!

[MHS831]

The Jags were heavy in free agency and had a good draft--10 new starters.  So when you say.. "We played the Jags", do you know what you are talking about?

Bortles needs a T, a WR (Marquis Lee was out).  The D could use a player or two, but they are not far away.  I bet they win 6 games or so.

You're right, I did say I would rather have Klein than Keuchly.

Klein did absolutely fine, and you should feel bad for wanting to bring that down because you are wrong and a terrible dresser.

Note the 'If Luke doesn't pass the protocol' caveat implying that Luke will not be available.  Not sure how you reached your conclusion, but OP's post was pretty clear.

If klein was black Halpo wouldnt be able to contain himself...

[KSpan]

Much like Luke and Beason, though obviously a tier or two below them in talent, Klein is a natural MLB playing out of position on the outside.  He brings value as the backup Mike and while it would be best to never see him there he showed that he can step in and provide respectable play.

He came in and ended up with 6 tackles, one behind TD and Luke.  I'd say he had an outstanding game.  Definitely proved his worth and knowledge of the overall game, though he may not possess the athletic ability of Shaq.
