this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; Dunbar is doing good, maybe when Vilma gets back he has a job. I don't like to see any body hurt. The way Dunbar has been playing it may be hard to unseat him....

Hopefully a month off will be all Vilma needs and we'll see him against NYG. and I agree that Dunbar has played well- he looks comfortable |

The only thing about Dunbar is the the switching of plays, Vilma had that down because he's been "the guy" in GW's D for 3 years. Dunbar will get used to that with more game time though, I like what he's been doing, the guy hits well and has good speed

A percieved lack of speed was one of the knocks on Dunbar when he came into th leauge, but it seems like he is fast enough. I would not be suprised if our starting LBs next year are Casillas, Dunbar and Wilson.

Absolutely fine with this. Hopefully he heals in time for the playoffs. He wasn't helping us much out there being gimp anyways. Dunbar is more than capable for the time being.
Dunbar >>>>>>>>>> gimp Vilma |

I still think a healthy Vilma is better but Dunbar has been great. Is there a reason Dunbar seems to play in the middle better?

Yeah because Vilma was hurt. No way Dun is better than JV healthy. I am glad we have a solid backup in Dun, but I agree Norm, we need JV down the stretch!
