There's something to be said about having the pressure being taken off. We traded up for him to be our stud pass rusher so the expectations were high for him. I wonder if nothing but having much lesser expectations allowed Floyd to play more relaxed and that explains his improvement there.
Leonard played his ass off for both teams, I wish him no ill will. The Georgia North thing was fun for a bit.
I'd argue Pace's Bears consistently tried to force players into their designated "holes." That alone, probably explains Pace overdrafting top round talent, and still finding credible players in later rounds.
My favorite thing thus far about the incoming coaching staff is how they keep saying, we'll roll with what works best for the player's skill sets. Which, um how does that take this long for someone to figure out?! Excluding the obvious square peg into round hole to describe Nagy's offenses, Vic-tree defenses did much the same, sometimes. Granted, they were successful, but ignoring a players talents doesn't usually seem to work out in the team's favor.
