The Quiet Things Only Nick Roach Knows
Last Sunday, the Bears defense struggled once Atlanta went into a no-huddle offense with some players admitting to not getting the calls in on time. Sigh. If only Nick Roach could talk more clearly and less like Lovie Smith.
Lance Briggs says of an apparent Roach communication issue problem hitch: “He has the Lovie voice box, so he doesn’t enunciate. … When Nick talks, we have to make sure we have our ears on.”
Sure, I’m confused in that I don’t really know if this is truly a setback–well, any more than being Nick Roach and not Brian Urlacher is (slight not intended)–but still, why will I likely hear Boomhauer from “King of the Hill” now whenever I try to envision Roach yelling out defensive assignments?
