LOL!!!!! Not Mad. I Actually Want To See Him Do Good Like Any Other Player On The Team!!!....Greer Is Def The Best Defensive Player But IN MY OPINION Harper Is Not Playing Good Anymore...Every Big Pass Play Is In His Area Of The Field..He's Getting Picked On Bro I'll Be Sure To Point That Out In The Carolina Game To You

They looked really good last night but I to keeping a dead horse but Jordan has to step up. Junior looks like our best pass rusher by for. I know Will got around the end a couple of times last night but came up short to get to Ryan.

We have certainly been down on the D for the majority of the season. They played well last night and are looking better each week. Shut the Dirtybirds down in the red zone and shut down Turner. The team, all around that played last night, can go all the way. That was a dominating performance.

couple points:
don't cut Harper; He's actually pretty good
Jordan isn't getting the numbers, but did a great job taking on blockers, being where he was supposed to be, and spreading runs outside. Twice Greer made nice tackles bc Jordan extended the OT outside

Overall A-

I don't know who is responsible, but MANY times last night, and all season, quarterbacks have been throwing into our secondary and there has been NOBODY even in the same tv screen shot except the reciever. Our secondary has to come from 20 yards away to tackle the reciever. Ryan threw to the same spot all night, and nobody was there except his reciever. Did anybody notice that Skid Britches threw for almost 400 yards last night?! 400 yards! That's not a secondary shutting down the pass.

They Scored 16 points....let me repeat that. They Scored 16 points! He could have passed for 10,000 yards. We held them to Field goals and 16 points. It's hard to shut a team down to zero points. I think they played very well including the backup Saftys.

Not trying to be a downer but I'm concerned about Drew's starting to throw INT's again going into the playoffs.

But these are what I was talking about before the game.

But both were deflected passes. The 1st was a freakishly good play by Moore.

Guys that stood out:

Junior Gallette - Needs to be starting.....period.

Greer - Thought he would be a liability. I was wrong & Mr. Greer....you have my sincerest apologies. Guy has played lights out all year.

Vilma - Glad to see him back. He reads the offense for the whole D.

Shanle - I can't believe I'm saying this, but he played well last night.

Jenkins - Dude looked like Ronnie Lott with those hits last night.

Harper - Always making plays.

D-Line - Much improvement, but still no pass rush.
