BeastMode54 66 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 With AJ really playing well the last 3-4 games, could our lineup be Milano-Tremeaine-AJ 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mojo44 453 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 I can see this. Could possibly improve both the run defense and the pass rush without compromising the pass defense. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch 1,186 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 (edited) The original plan was the three would be starting LB's and likely Klein would come out on passing plays. Kleins play of late may have changed that where you leave him in as an extra standing lineman to blitz from different spots. That may in some cases be better than an extra DB on he field Edited November 30, 2020 by Ed_Formerly_of_Roch 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JaCrispy 2,789 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 I could see it only if Klein becomes more of the MLB, Edmunds OLB, with Milano an OLB/S hybrid 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SageAgainstTheMachine 1,390 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Klein is sorta morphing into that Lorax role, in my opinion, including being put on ice skates occasionally by a RB in space which you can live with for all the TFL and contain. 13 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Then where snaps are going. Klein is bringing some juice on the blitzes, and holding his own in coverage. 1 minute ago, JaCrispy said: I could see it only if Klein becomes more of the MLB, Edmunds OLB, with Milano an OLB/S hybrid Not sure Klein has the range for Mike. Hes playing more on the LOS to fit a bit better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Klein’s 40 time at the combine: 4.66. Edmunds; 4.52. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ethan in Portland 2,467 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Edmunds lined up at OLB several times today. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MJS 8,086 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 I like Klein as a blitzer. It worries me when he is expected to cover or beat runners to the boundary. He is just so dang slow and doesn't take the best angles. I'm excited to have Milano back for coverage. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

YattaOkasan 286 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 (edited) Best passing down front might be Oliver Hughes Addison Klein Edmunds and milano. That’s a pretty fun nascar package. I trust all of them to rush. Edited November 30, 2020 by YattaOkasan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BillsVet 1,267 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Klein is a strictly a Sam and Milano a Will. In passing downs Klein is a liability and on running downs Milano obviously is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

947 428 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 (edited) I have the solution... Milano at Big Nickel. Taron Johnson has been the weakest link in our back-7 all year. Milano playing there gets him & Klein on the field at the same time, this would make us a legit tough Defense again. If we want to win in the playoffs, this is what we need.

He's not getting hurt going to the refrigerator late at night. Nor in passing downs when in coverage. 225 LBs don't hold up well in the NFL for very long. He's a good player in some respects, but missing 10 games in 3 years isn't typically something players avoid into mid-career. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
appoo 163 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Shanahan will run at you and he’ll pick you apart with shifty players getting into space, within 15 yards, and he the TE involved. Be an interesting balance between the Sam and Nickel. My gut says they’ll play majority Sam as you stop the run against the Niners you stop their primary weapon Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AJK is actually better blitzer it seems. Also Tremaine was very good, maybe best we’ve seen all season. Edited November 30, 2020 by Over 29 years of fanhood Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That early 3rd and 10 to eckler doesn’t happen if it’s Milano out there IMO. That said it’s hard to complain with Klein’s play for the last month. He’s a backup after all.
