for a player with a finesse label coming into the NFL, Simmons has proven to be a physical player when he needs to be

I didn’t know he had that rep. He’s been fast and physical. Though it’s now the wrong the number, I’m glad I was right to want his authentic jersey for Xmas last year!

Simmons is a baller. I'm so glad Hicks is putting him in positions to succeed.

Simmons was everything we needed yesterday. An absolute specimen of size, speed, and power. THIS was star level stuff yesterday. He's an all-pro if he gets more splash plays.

Did anyone else notice the Peanut Tillman punch he threw yesterday on a Lance scramble? he got the ball out too just not enough for the fumble.

I LOVED the physicality he brought yesterday. If he figures out the right balance between Physical and Speed merchant....... He will be very special.

Despite Watt and Chandler elevating the average age of our defense ( ), we have a very young team on the defensive and offensive side of the ball. This team is built for a multi-year run. We're young on both sides of the ball, but especially on D.

I like Joy Taylor. Daughter of Jason Taylor, for those who remember, a great NFL player. She has said from week 1 our Cardinals are the funnest team to watch, and everyone kind of disregards her, but she knows...

in real time, that is a really tough ask of the QB. When that RB comes open, Lance has already accelerated to try to get the TD himself

Definitely tough! It's fortunate that Lance is still so raw. A more experienced QB likely would've had an eye on the receiver while running, looking for that option to open up... or even would've pump faked to the receiver in order to slow down Simmons and give himself a bit more room to make the TD.

It seems Lance thought he had the speed and size to just power his way in, which he would have vs. most defenders!

He still has so much to improve on too. Right now he's doing well on physical talent and a bit of knowledge. He's not even at 75% of his full potential.

Yet again evidencing the fact that you don’t understand the mental aspect and responsibilities of Hick’s position.

Look I am NOT a Hicks fan. I can’t wait until Collins is ready to replace him. But we aren’t waiting on a physical maturity with Collins. We are waiting on his ability to read and diagnose offensive sets and be capable of calling out defenses. Each individual player doesn’t read the offense and decide where to be. That is literally part of Hicks’ job description.

Again u come with the mental aspect of a player being really bad athletically but having the knowledge to call the plays, giving assignments and making audible. But after the snap the guy is a liability
Its funny how those endorsement for hicks coming just recently...
Just to know, Tallejo is better

Agreed and I am not sure Vance is the type of coach who will get the most out of him. It is a bit like Troy Polamalu. Troy has admitted he wouldn't have been the NFL player he was if Dick LaBeau didn't let him play outside of scheme on defense. Vance likes his scheme and his structure a lot.

You’re right, let’s blow the integrity of the entire defense instead of work around a single player who has some physical deficiencies. Sheesh.

To be fair, most coaches do. You need an outstandingly extraordinary player to convince even the most liberal coaches to allow freelancing.

Actually he is playing 100% of the snaps , when he will play less we will know how the "integrity" of the defense will be affected

Cardinals are 11th in allowing rush yards and 7th in yards per carry WITH Jordan Hicks's veteran knowledge playing 100% of the snaps. I get what you are saying but Hicks does hurt our defense by being athletically incapable of making a lot of plays that need to be made. I think you are buying into Vance's narrative a little too much here.

Cardinals move up to #3 on the Herd Hierchy

Not if Collins ready to make the calls when he earns more PT.

He does. But what hurts more is being in a poor defensive alignment for a given offensive play. Then it’s not just Hicks limited athleticism that hurts us it’s multiple players being a poor position to stop what’s coming. You know this. I’m surprised you think a rookie LB from a smaller school would be ready a few games into his rookie year to call a sophisticated defense.

Agree completely. Hicks may give up a few yards here & there but a poor defensive alignment could give up the bigger plays. Our defense is playing pretty good right now. Once Collins is there mentally this defense should look even better.

here to bang my Hicks drum. go Hicks! nice brain!

 

[Jetstream Green]

This is awesome!
