Was he the missing link to gel the defense into what it should be?

Eerily similar to Baltimore bringing in Roquan Smith in October ‘22. He elevated the play of the entire defense.

I heard Dave Wyman say something about the defensive playbook being scaled back a bit according to players.

But having Jones in the middle and sliding Dodson over is huge for the run game

He’s been impressive for sure. He could be our RS, dudes a leader and a dog and tbh maybe he wants to stick it to McVay. Didn’t they have a falling out in a way anyways? Allegedly at least

I don’t know if there is or isn’t veracity to that, but I’d be more than a little pissed about the way that LA dealt with him, if I was him. I’d want to make a real point in this game.

100%, 2 players, Goff and Jones McVay basically went diva with and jettisoned them for really measly shit it seems

He plays fast. Overreacts at times but solid.

I like him. He plays a bit ‘stiff’ to me at times but…solid upgrade imo.

Definitely better against the run.
