Zach doesn't get those stats if CJ doesn't blow up the play for him. Hence why I have 0 worries about Bowser or even Correa taking over.
Agree - while I like Orr, and would have preferred him not retiring bc he had at least proven capable of playing the role next to CJ -- its absolutely true imo that Orr doesnt look nearly as good if Mosley wasnt next to him.
The games CJ was out, the defense as a whole suffered, but i dont remember Orr showing up that much. Often time he was just a beneficiary, doing the easy clean up after the DL and CJ doing the dirty work.
Not saying hes a bad player, or that he wouldnt help us or cant help some other team.... just that i dont think hes truly an All-Pro caliber player. I also have faith in Correa to step up. And i dont want to see Orr come back for the wrong reasons or based on a bad opinion and end up paralyzed or worse - dead.
Glad we're sticking to our guns for moral reasons... but i think there are justifiable football reasons to move on now too. Between Correa, Bowser, Onwuasor, Levine, or McLellan - we'll be just fine.
Rather spend that money on a C.
