Re: Yet another Haynesworth thread: his style of play

My concern is shouldn't we have done the same thing with Jason Taylor last year? How can we be sure that Blache has learned his lesson? The only way I can see Haynesworth not working out here is if we try to make him something he's not. We really have to just stick him in the lineup and let him do his thing.
Yeah, I'm concerned that we brought in AH just because he was the most talented free agent without a premeditation of how we are going to implement him in our system.

This freelancing style is concerning too because let's say that it doesn't work with our defense the first half of the season. What would be the fix?...Get AH to play outside of his natural talents?

Also if we switch our defensive scheme to conform to AH's style of play and then he goes down for a while that will bite us in the ass too.


It's almost as if the AH signing gave us more questions than answers to our problems.
