Out of position penalty

[kckolbe]

The two leading tacklers in the league are safeties playing at LB. When it was Verns I didn't think much of it. Dude was a high TPE player. But now Torque Lewith? The speed cap for safety makes them better for LB, since strength appears to mean pretty much nothing when tackling (source: Lewith bringing down Jenkins ALL NIGHT on Friday).

Just as CB was adjusted because S was better at CB than CB was, should we look at changing something here? Again, not only are they at the top...it's kinda not even close.

I think if that's going to be applied then should there be finite number of position changes a player can go through?

These aren't players changing position, just playing out of position as their primary role.

Sure, but if you let's say put a penalty on torque, he now can't do anything what with the cap on position changes.

If that's the case, shouldn't Bork also then not be playing Defensive Tackle? It's crazy that a DE is getting those kind of stats slotted in the defensive tackle position.

EDIT:

Most Defensive Tackles Max Speeds are 65, yet Bork Bjornsson is sitting at 80, slotted in DT. If you don't like safeties playing LB, then DEs shouldn't play DT

Yo true. That's some mad BS

no one else would think of this

that was in fact the exact reason why Bjornsson switched iirc

No shit, but I'm just stating that he's talking specifically about the LBs right now, but fails to mention his own teammate in it. Doesn't that seem a little off?

EDIT: I'm just saying, if your coming for 1 position, you need to come for them all, and not just single out this example of Lewith and Verns

I think he only mentioned LB because that's his position so he follows those stats closely. If you asked him he would agree about DE and DT. Many people have talked about it and that's why you see everyone switching to run stopper. Watch @loco rack up huge stats the rest of the season as a DE playing DT
