McDermott has had a length of 6" thick anchor chain on him since he walked in the door.
I get it, running the ball anywhere near him is a waste of a down and his contain rush is almost always correct.
But for gawd's sake coach, cut the young man loose sometimes.
Not just because he can be a problem when he's allowed to attack the backfield, but it also forces blockers away from blitzers that are usually being picked up.
This is not Rousseau's fault; he's doing what he's being coached to do on too many downs.
