He was just so extraordinarily good against the pass it was hard to take him off the field. But you could drive a truck through the run lanes he left behind. There were a few games he did well in the run game, but most of the time he was a liability.

If you're playing 9 tech as a DE, the LB is 1000% responsible for the B gap that was typically left open.
