He is stiff

He can stop an outside rush, but he looks very stiff adjusting to a rusher's change in positioning. For example, faking outside than going inside. He adjusts slowly to the change in direction.
.

compare to himself a few years ago. If you or anyone has the All-22, go back and watch him in 2011 or even 2015 vs Rams. You can see he doesn't bend his knees as well.

He plays well now and will likely be All-pro/Pro bowl has on smarts and experience. I mean he's 100 years old. He gets the job done and that's all that can be asked, but now, he's not a physical specimen in terms of lateral movement.

So, there will be some beats, but he doesn;t allow constant pressure like G-Rob. And that's the key. If he gets beat for a sack every other game, that will happen but getting beat and forcing the Qb to step, coupled with an interior line that allowed pressure around QBs feet/face is deadly and that is not happening

So, it's been a good signing even though he's not perfect

  How many sacks in 12 games has Whitworth given up?

GreatRamNTheSky252December 07, 2017 08:03AM

  7 but some are crediting him with only 5
