He has an 80.0 Coverage grade from PFF, looks like he showed it on that play. Just needs to stack days and stay healthy for the whole season and he'll be good/great.

mannnnn, those HORN FROGS line backers are good because they come from the 4-2-5 scheme where once Safeties turned LBs.. .. but I have stated before, if he can stay healthy, he will lead the NFL if not the team, in tackles!!

Good call!

All the praise is coverage which we all knew he is really good at. It's his tackling and run support in question. If the DL can hold their gap he can have a stellar season finishing plays while they do the dirty work. Even though we went all out on drafting some of the best stuffers they are just rookies. Winters really needs to step up in the run game. Him, Pearsall, Guerendo, Stout and West are the players I'm going to be keeping an eye on through preseason

Winters was also slow to process. On the good side for him Saleh reduces processing needed by simplifying the scheme.

Saleh did? Where did you read that?

Where did I read that Saleh likes a simpler system? Years ago when he was first coaching the 49ers.

Did a quick google and this was the first thing that popped up https://jetsxfactor.com/2023/08/15/ny-jets-pros-cons-saleh-defense/
Has anyone heard of the Westbound & Down podcast? I think they're Bay Area guys and they only post about the Niners....honestly really funny and know their stuff...worth a listen!

They cut a QB.
Now, hire him as a WR.
TANNER is an athlete with some WR gifts

Desperate for WRs with knowledge of the offense.
Can't wait for news of today's practice!

It's not quite what he said but fair enough. It was in one of his pressers the past week. He said that in one of our losses (I can't recall the game-sorry) that he was putting too much on Fred, forcing him to think too much instead of just freely playing. He took the blame for the loss. I think his comment was more on not overloading Fred with commands and options and allow Fred to just relax and play. Some may take that as installing a simpler plan.

Did you click the link I posted from his Jets days? He's known for running a streamlined system. The Jets link was critical because they are saying he wants to put athletes in a position to win but relies on the athletes to win rather than the scheme to win with lesser athletes.

Saleh designs his defense to allow players to read and react quickly so it's considered relatively player friendly. It's one reason his defenses can get more sacks. Some defense force players to be so concerned about where they shoukd be on the field that they often forget that the whole purpose is to get to the ball or the runner.
