ok, my point is that even in a 4-3, he still would be responsible for containing the edge. There are many different ways to run 3-4 and 4-3. Just because a player is asked to be disruptive and get up field doesn't mean he can forget about containing the edge. Again there are many different ways to 3/4,4/3, one gap, two gap, hybrid, .......Based on common sense you ****ing moron.
He's not Ryan Kerrigan stop making him out to be. Lol I can literally count 7 games where I saw Chick not hold contain. Please Keep him away from my Ravens
Nobody thinks he's Ryan Kerrigan. Not many people are. But saying that Chickilo struggled to hold-contain means very little. He's not a hold-contain player and that's the argument people are making.
I hope he doesn't go to the Ravens either. He wouldn't thrive in that system either. Put him on the Texans/Rams and he can be productive.
So, if he can't hold-contain AND can't 2-gap, what can he do?
When you 2-gap, you are holding and containing. You just stated the action and result of the scheme.
As evidenced by his recent draft stock improvement, he shows that he can get up the field and makes plays in the backfield. At the very least he can be consistently disruptive in the right setting and he can disturb the edge and corner line settings. That's one activity he can do.
You said he isn't a hold contain player. My point is......that's the defensive ends primary responsibility....in almost all schemes.
