I don't know all of the details.. there's only so many moves for a DE... But I know that the spin move is far from his only tool. If you think it is, you should watch some more Colts games.

I will grant you that his run defense is lacking, I'm not supporting him there.

I think we're arguing about two seperate things and we're in agreement about more than we think.

You agree that Freeney is bad against the run, and I agree that Freeny is good against the pass. Maybe I was a little hasty in my "one-move" definition of Freeney as I honestly have not watched enough game tape to back that assertion.

However, I do stand by my point that he is overrated in the sense that he has little impact against the run and is mainly a Charles Haley type of player who is only concered with getting to the quarterback (not implying that Freeney is as mentally unstable as Haley, just that they have similar talents)
