My goodness, he is slow to react, they cant find somebody better to play linebacker?

Geez Louise, that's just malfeasance on the GM's part.

I don't know the reason why he advanced zeke turner in the depth chart, who looks by far more talented

Injuries. Reddick is out so Gardeck is next man up. Which shows how thin our depth is at ILB.

As soon as I saw him in for the 1st series, I thought the exact same thing. Ugh.

He is not starter quality.

He does not hold up well at the point of attack, is easily washed out, and it appears (without knowing the specific scheme and assignment) fails to get his fits. His instincts do not offset his physical shortfalls...

We need to be aggressive attacking the waiver wire.

I watched both Turner and Gardeck last night and Turner seemed to have a much better feel and quicker reaction to the ball last night.

Did Terrell McClain, Brooks Reed, or Jeff Holland play last night? If so, how did they do?

I saw both McClain and Holland in there last night but really didn't notice how they played. Did Not see Reed but maybe I missed him somehow. My focus was on the LBs.

Gardeck gives it all he has, but is limited at this level. Good ST player but just a backup LB.

Gareck and Reddick are the same player, except one gets nowhere faster than the other one... I do hope Robertson makes the team, he on the contrary has instincts

Reed played. My wife noticed his long blonde hair & commented it looked better than hers. :)

Hopefully PHI cuts Zach Brown, word is he hasn't stood out in camp. Would rather have Brown than any ILB not named Hicks on this roster.

Manti Te'o is out there, even he would be an upgrade over Gardeck.

It's Bill Davis!!!! I don't know what he does, but LB's all play slower and take wrong gaps when he's their coach. At OSU, I know the players were often confused, played slow, and always out of position.

He's the worst coach on a bad staff.
