[P.C.Defense]

Looks like you got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning JS.I was saying he could play offense too but he doesn't understand really how to read his playbook.He needs a little extra help.Just because you know how to doesn't mean a first year kid knows how.You did good with him on D but I think he could go on both sides.

I get what your saying. Flinchum has got to be more physical and understand playing defensive end out of a 4-4 is not just flying up field on a pass rush every play. He did a good job last season for a first year player and made some big plays on D. 5 Techniques have got to attack half a man on offensive tackles. You can't just fly up field, YOU HAVE GOT TO GET HANDS ON. Flinchum needs to work on squeezing(closing) the tackle down on an inside release.
Flichum and Faulkner both are pretty good at D ends but have got to get more hands on and get more physical. Flying up field every play will get you crushed if they run power.
