Midseason Night Grades

[Tyrion Lannister]

Then you haven't seen him getting murdering in overpursuit on misdirection. He also has trouble making reads when he is inside in that 4-3 Elephant front.

With the DTs not being able to create penetration in the middle of the field and the ILBers not being able to shed blocks worth a fuck, the Claymaker had to be overaggressive.

Claymaker is second on the team in tackle for loss. He's the Pack's best run defender on an awful run defense.

Being best on a terrible run D is faint praise. You don't need D line penetration when you are the Will in a 4-3 Under or the backside contain in a 3-4/2-4. His greatest strength is his initial burst and teams use that against him. And have been since the San Fran playoff game in San Fran.

That is one of the great fallacies in all team sports. Rarely is it advantageous for a player to weaken his performance of his responsibilities in an effort to make up for the deficiencies of players at other positions.
