Where's our vocal defensive leader?

I don't think someone yelling at teammates is the answer to our woes right now. I wish it was that simple.

way to take it out of context. we need someone to fire up the defense in the game, yell out plays EFFECTIVELY a-la pierce when he was here. we need a vocal leader, and it would be nice if it could be our MLB

I'm simply generalizing.

I'm not sure of your point, do you want Marshall to yell the calls louder? I'm not sure how that's being a leader.

Additionally, since we're not on the field it's tough to tell what's really going on as far as chatter.

have you ever been on a team before? you need a player to psyche players up on the field, get teammates going, someone to motivate you to play better, and so far i havent seen that

Well actually, some people respond to that stuff and some don't.

Me personally, I don't need that rah-rah stuff.

Back to the Skins, if this perceived lack of vocal leadership is a problem this year, who was the vocal leader last year when the D was playing so well without the likes of Pierce and LaVar??

our defense did drop once pierce left 5 spots i think, and when lavar came in he definitely gave our defense energy. the vocal leadership is especially important when a team is down, like we are now. before we had more talent and a healthier defense, now without that it amplifies the need for guys to play above their levels through being inspired
