Great block, it still doesn't make him a thumper, but an opportunistic tackler for sure.

I get that. He was RAW when he got here. He has been playing faster, much more decisive defense over time.
Hopefully, without GW's ridiculously over complicated schemes, he can read and react quicker.

The kid has worked hard and I am pulling for him.

I don't have anything against him, and I think he would be a good re-sign for the Saints for depth, but certainly not to be the starting MLB.

I think if given the opportunity and some more reps, Dunbar would become a good MLB.

It was obvious last year that when Vilma was out, Dunbar showed his most comfortable spot is the middle linebacker.

In a small amount of playing time dunbar has made a hand full of plays when given the chance

Alot of people might not remember this....In Dallas in 2010 season, marion barber had the edge on a 4th and 1, DE missed the tackle, vilma and shanle both missed the tackle and dunbar came from nowhere like a freight train and stopped barber for a loss, Our ball on our 40 yard line

Then when he stopped the falcons ball carrier to force a 4th and 1 last year, which ofcourse smith went for and lost.

I know its only 2 examples, but i'm rooting for him because he's a hard worker and played better than vilma did all season
