Foote is horrible!

[SidSmythe]

nah, let's just go ahead and blame Larry Foote anyway...

I think the only people down on FOOTE are the ones who had their minds made up before the season started that he would suck. Nevermind watching the games and making decisions. He's the fall guy I suppose.

Well that makes no sense in regards to me because I have been on this forum for years saying Foote is a liability versus the run and in pass coverage. I watch him with regularity and see him often being pushed back, out of position, over pursuing and giving up his responsibility. But he does make a lot of tackles. Usually 7-9 yards past the line of scrimmage.

Me personally I want a play maker who can play down hill and stop the run closer to the line of scrimmage or maybe even behind it. But that's just me.

..but it's ok. Two more losses and we are in the Manti T'eo hunt.

Just do something for me, the next game keep a eye on Foote and Hampton and tell me do they deserve to be starters. I mean he couldn't even contribute on a terrible Lions team.

7 TO's on O and Foote is the problem? LOL...

Actually I went back during the commerical and Foote got sealed off by an O-Lineman but he held his gap responsibilities and Clark over pursued the play. Timmons got washed out of his gap...hardly can pin this one on FOOTE (if you have a clue about football that is)

exactly what i saw as well. OK, Foote isn't the greatest ILB in the game, but he plays pretty sound football. No way the loss gets pinned on the defense or Foote.

Especially when both TD's came off a 10 yard drive and a 31 yard drive after the OFFENSE fumbled in our own territory.
Lets blame the DEFENSE!! Brilliant.

Foote was the leading tackler for the Lions in 2009. You may want to stop posting about Foote for a while.

thats pretty funny.

If you look at when I posted, it was well before halftime and I watched Foote missing tackles and getting blocked out of the play regularly. Not once did I blame the defense. So please don't put words in my mouth. I also posted about the offense playing terrible. But I get it , you have something opposite of anything I post anyways but who cares.
