The fact that they are saying that LA doesnt fit into the scheme is just BS, he fit perfectly fine last year before he got hurt, he was the face of the Skins now he just an overpaid bench warmer. I say play your best players, and especially a player that you just re-negotiated a contract with and are paying large sums of money. Our D right now isnt an attacking D, it seems like we let things come at us rather than going up against an offense and punching them square in the mouth!

Exactly. Why do we not have packages in place just for Lavar. If he does not stay put in coverage, fine, don't use him in coverage. Put there are clearly times when we want to pressure the qb, and he is the best person on the team for that. He is a pure athlete, let him use those talents to beat his man. If he gets double teamed, then someone else has the chance of getting the qb. Third and long, bring the blitz. Lavar is the man for that down.
