    Watched the "Coach Tony Sparano" show on Aquavision and they had OLB Coach Reid on to dissect Wake's sack on Josh Freeman, Reid mentioned that they allowed Wake to play in the stance he was the most comfortable with, meaning basically they allowed him to play in a 4 pt stance after trying him out in a two point, standing, stance.

    Reid mentioned Wake's takeoff was excellent with is first step landing where his hands had been on the ground, giving him a large and fast first step, Reid also mentioned that Wake protects his chest (inside number) well with his arm and he does not allow himself to be pushed past the play.

    Reid also mentioned that Freeman ran out of 4 additional sacks.

    Cameron Wake is a freak of nature & a sack monster
    to be a premier NFL pass rusher in 2010 :yes: got to give him more playing time in 2009
    Wake is destined for greatness

    Oh man if freeman escaped 4 potential Wake Sacks; Fitzpatrick or Edwards are gonna be on their back more than Jenna Jamesion.

    Not only was wake a steallar find and signing (other teams made offers) but he was brought along the right way to find success. Not that he's starting to show consistency in producing, i can see his D playing time increase from here on out.

    Not only Wake, he got away from other players as well.




    6 games to go, and the really cool thing is, this past weekend the teams we needed to lose, all lost, in a weekend we can be one game out of the WC and AFCE hunt, this from a 0-3 start is amazing.

    Yeah i gotta say that's a testament to the coaching staff, personel management who find players and the players buying into the attitude the coaching staff has layed down.

    Can you imagine when wannstead, cameron or satan were the coaches if we started 0-3, lost our starting QB, starting RB, starting CB, have an injured OLB for several games who led the AFC in sacks the year prior, lose your starting MLB for a game and decimated Oline during a very close game, played the 2 undefeated teams in the league through week 11 (and almost won both games) and had to play in Carolina on the road on a short week would we still be in the same shape we are in now?


    The reason were 5-5 is due to attitude of the players that was preached by the coaches, mental toughness so to speak, depth players who fit our system who can come in and have little to no drop off in production and a coaching staff that can get the most out of almost any player.

    This team is one of the toughest to play against. They are big, fast, strong, tough and understand what is expected and all have the same goal, to win the game week to week.

    Regardless of how this season plays out, and i think it will be down to the wire exciting, we have to be damn proud of this team from top to bottom, lord knows they give it everything they have all season long and the system is finally in place to achieve great things in the next 3 years.

    Genius, pure genius.

    You of course realize that we were sitting in the 9th slot, 2 games out of the WC race?

    The pats are up in about 4th, we sort of need some teams that are between "us' and the Pats, and "us" and the WC slot to lose some games.

    He has, in the 1st qtr against the Panthers he bull rushed Otah and owned him, in the Bucs game his spin move should have drawn a holding call.

    Wake is making one of those "jump ups" that Sparano was speaking about in Training camp and during the OTA's. If Wake's snaps increase he will have one of those Derrick Thomas type of 4 sack games were he is just unblockable.

    Imvho of course.

    Learned a bit watching OLB Coach Reid, firstly he is from the Northeast, secondly how to judge a explosive get off on a pass rush vs a average one.

    That vid is a great tool.

    Its really amazing what this front office has done with personnel. Who would have believed we would come this far in such a short time after the nightmare we went thru in years past. This group has done more in two years of the draft and free agency than had been done in the past 10 years combined. This is a very young team that will only get better the more they play together
