[QUOTE="PackersRS, post: 373858, member: 1429"] As allouez said, Hawk isn't a pro bowler but he's a good starter. He led the team in tackles and led all LBs in picks, plus his greatest asset is his recognition and communication skills. There weren't as many breakdowns in coverage last year as there was in 09 (true, another year in the system influenced a lot). As for JJ, he had some stupid, stupid drops, but he also had some amazing catches, against PHI and ATL he made great TD catches. As for Colledge, watch the DET game. When he went down, our OL got lost. True, Lang was rushed into the position. I think he definitely improved his game last year, but he's not a strength of the team. IMHO the weakest starter was between the OLB (we had 3 guys starting at different times) and Peprah. Peprah was a huge liability in coverage sometimes, he gave up the game against WAS, and if it wasn't for Big Ben's innacuracy, would've given up a TD in the SB. But that's the flaw in his game, the deep coverage, when he plays near the LOS he's very good. And the OLBs, they all have their pros and cons. Jones is good in coverage and is a good pass rusher but he's not good against the run. Zombo is good setting the edge but doesn't bring much in pass rush. Walden is the best pass rusher of the bunch but doesn't do a good job against the run nor in coverage. Let's not ;) [/QUOTE]
