If that is even close to correct, then Stephon Heyer must be as dumb as a sack of hammers if he knows what will make him "unbeatable" but can't bring himself to do it. Bending one's knees is not exactly a complex undertaking for most humans. In fact, most two year olds have that one mastered.

Don't waste a lot of time parsing the sentences here. Most of it off-season verbiage which is rarely if ever critically analytical.

Oh, and for the record, Doc Walker was the guy last year who was absolutely certain that Jason Taylor would be unstoppable because teams would have to pay special attention to Carter on the other side. During the off-season, Doc should put on a mini-skirt and brake out the pom-poms and do a little dancing...
Easier said than done. Heyer is a tall dude at 6'6 and he needs to play lower. Technique is all about creating muscle memory and often times it's easy to fall back on hold habits when you have a 275 pound guy in front of you trying to beat you around the corner or bull rush you into the backfield. He's still raw but he definitely has potential. I think that's the basic point VC was trying to make.
