I realize how thin we are on our defenseive line, but I would like to see the coaches sit these guys down and show them tape of their play, and then make them watch how the bookends, curry & copeland use to do it. I know the difference is like night and day but this D could learn something from these two who put on a clinic for us many times back when.
Roll Tide!
If you're gonna go, go all the way, if you're gonna stay, stand your ground, if you can't run with the big dogs, big dog let me walk you out, if you can't lead let me by you, if you won't follow get out of the way, you're taking up space. "Van Zant"

Won't matter if you don't have the talent to accomplish.
Yeah, good idea...but they could watch Copeland and Curry all day long and not be able to do that stuff. Can't grow longer arms and stronger, more powerful bodies to blast through blockers like swiss cheese.
The Process Continues
