Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

Defensive Indifference

This is the first play of Florida State's game-winning drive.  Watch Justin Byers (28) half-ass his way to the receiver and pull up to avoid having to attempt a tackle.

Watching this live I noticed Byers lack of hustle, called it out, which then drew a “get his ass out of the game!” from my dad… to which I whole-heartedly agreed… and then proceeded to watch us lose. Ughh…

Couple things

1 – For this game, your rigged snapshot breakdowns would be stunning. Just take a few shots with the ball in the air, where the FSU receiver is making a play for the ball, and any number of our DB’s either never looks (ahem… Clem) or stands there and watches, flatfooted.

2 – Before the Chargers game last week, they exposed Quentin Jammer for doing this EXACT same thing… repeatedly pulling up and refusing to hit someone. I don’t understand so many things about it… from his mindset to the coaching they’re getting to the decision to have him in to the decision to not yank him. In the end, it’s all about coaching…… any of the above fall to TOB.

This is nothing new. Byers has consistently been one of the worst tacklers on the team since his arrival. He was bumped to 2nd string due to his poor tackling earlier this year…

He should have his scholly revoked. Why is he even on the field?
