MarlinTheMagician Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 In my humble opinion Milano needs to start. Humber looked terrible to me vs. Saints - could not get off any blocks. Milano brings speed, energy, youth and a nose for the ball. I think he could help a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Murica Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Lorax needs to just be in on 3rd and long. Milano was making plays while he was in. Something this team is in desperate need for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hemma Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 According to Football Outsiders, all 20 of his snaps were on ST. I thought I saw him rotate in on the D, but maybe not. http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/snapcounts I have a hard time understanding why he didn't get some time with the D.

BigBuff423 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 I agree with Milano starting, and I've been on board with it since the first game Humber came back. Nothing against Humber AT THAT TIME, it was more about going with the youth movement and giving a promising LBer some time to grow and maybe become a core member of the Defense for years to come. Since then, it makes no sense to me to have Milano ride the pine as he was more productive AND is hopefully in their future plans. A sort of Peterman issue on Defense.

Kmart128 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 As bad as Humber has played, Lorenzo has been ten 10 worse. Move him to backup DE and start Milano at WLB with Humber as the SLB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaviorPeterman Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 No excuse at this point that this young stud isn't out there. Would instantly improve the run defense and bring a permanent blue collar, lunch player presence to the front seven...bloodied gauze firmly inserted up the nose and all.

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Milano and Humber with full time 3 safety look as a base big Nickle. No slow LBs ever. Lorax and Preston Brown need to be perma bench Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan89 Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 (edited) Lorax should be a pass rusher. Simplify the game for him, dude is a freak athlete but his ball skills and instincts aren't what they need to be. Dude has changed positions so much and been a special teams player for so long that he doesn't have a full skillset. Put his hand in the dirt and let him loose on passing downs. Put Shaq at DT on 3rd and long, have Hughes and Lorax rush the edge. Lorax just doesn't fit the mold of a 4-3 LB. He is a pass rusher put him in a situation to get after the quarterback. Milano should take over for Lorax and then move Lorax into a situational position. Lorax can still help the defense but only if used properly.
