Cole Holcomb

REDSKINS4ever · 12-07-2021, 04:59 AM

He once was a liability in coverage.....but not anymore.....he has improved a ton in coverage.....he has a number of pass defenses and 1 interception so far this season.

He has improved a great deal but I also think that much of his early season struggles, as for the defense as a whole, were down to trying/having to cover multiple areas due to certain other players inability to cover at all. I think you know of whom I speak. With the changes made before the bye week the whole group have gotten better.

Cole Holcomb has really good football instincts, plays with a ton of heart. Good story as a fifth rounder, But imo he isn’t physically gifted enough to be dominant at his position. I still think that is an area of need.

Big time. Last year was a deep draft for LBs too. They should have picked an other one after Jamin.

He’s come along nicely…never really considered an issue at LB, not like Jon Bostic

Maybe winning the division was a mistake last year? We could have drafted Parsons...

This D turn around doesnt happen without him.

Ideally best case scenario hed be first man up for the LB corp if a starter goes down ... but weve had trouble figuring out the LB role (foster, t. davis, bostic, j. davis) and his steady eddy contributions shouldnt be discounted.

Ive become a Holcomb appreciator.

id love a Marcus Washington right now. Hopefully Jamin can become that.

I think Holcomb is starting caliber. But if he is your best linebacker, your unit is lacking. Hopefully by next year Davis is the alpha dog of the unit.

Exactly Cole should be a prime backup and contribute in certain schemes but we need an upgrade to dominate.

He does a good job rocking that mullet, few can.

Hail to the Football Team !

My favorite part was him running thru that weak ass Dak arm tackle….left Dak flailing like a fish on the ground

If Cole had the same level of physical traits that he had instincts he would be a sure shot hall of famer.

Can totally see him being a coach when he is done playing.
