But if he had made that interception or defended that pass, we would all be praising his name. I gotta give it to him on being aggressive and trying to make something happen...

Of course, knowing that a safety is supposed to be there to help doesn't mean that he in fact will be there, but it doesn't change the overall point nor did that appear to be the case with the play in question. |
