And a pass rush. QB's get desperate and hurry their throws when they're pressured. Thats a free safety's dream.

Byrd hasn't seen a pass rush in front of him in 3 years.

People give Byrd ****, and probably rightfully so to an extent, but when the guy has been on the field he has made an impact. I think a 100% Byrd may surprise this year.

Dude, Thanks - that absolutely cracked me up; hey, I wanna see it to, but it hasn't happened and likely not going to either...

If Byrd isn't an All-Pro this year - he's a gone pecan...

He got smoked by Ted Gynn on an obvious 3rd and long against the BlackCats...let me repeat...smoked by Ted Gynn...

Only impact he's making is the arse dimple in the contours of the whirlpool or on a stationary bike seat...

Yes, that will happen when it is a lifetime ago, and 3 years removed is a lifetime in the NFL
