The secret is to work less as individuals and more as a team. As a coach, I play not my eleven best, but my best eleven.

That's fine. I thought he kind of sucked while he was a Bear.

Agreed, he was disappointing for sure. Glad we didn't overpay for that guy.

Same kind of safety as EJack only not near as good. With a ball hawk like Eddie, you need a Thumper to play alongside him to free him up. With EJack and Ha Ha we had two guys playing the same position.

1 / 4 is very reasonable for what he is, but the money's all spent here

It's more that you can "get away" with a Thumper type - coverage skills are the name of the game - just with Eddie you can get away with less at the other position.

Kam Challelor should have had to give like half his pay check to Earl Thomas IMHO (and 25% to Bobby Wagner)
