Something's been wrong w/this defense the last couple weeks, I wonder if he's part of the problem.

He is great at making big hits, but if you watch him take on blockers he usually takes himself out of the play. His coverage issues have been talked about by us quite a bit.

Is Laron our present day Lavar? A big hitter but undisciplined? Is he a Shanahan guy? I'm actually wondering if the staff feels he's worth investing in beyond his current deal.

At least Lavar made 3 pro bowls and made some plays to help us win. What exactly has Laron done in the regard. He has some moments like in the Green Bay game last year where you think that he is a pro bowl elite player and then he does things like celebrating and after an offensive player makes a first down. He doesn't seem to get it. Lavar at least had produced.
