How about that open field tackle Chauncey Gardner-Johnson made on Leonard Fournette. Textbook tackle and technique. Head up, chin up and wrapped up. Beautiful form.

He looked like a safety on that play.

That was gonna be a pretty good run. CGJ's closing speed shut that off and his physicality shut that down. Bringing him down in the open field is no small feat.

- 5-1.
- If defense wins championships..................

- Liked the all white look.
- Cook getting involved.
- Murray getting involved.
- No turnovers.

- Didn't get the need to force the ball to Ginn.
- Kamara is a tough guy but he wasn't himself. The coaches should have over ruled the player and sat him. He and Thomas are more valuable than Brees since there's nobody behind them.

- The officiating around the league is atrocious.
- The Rams OLine or lack thereof is going to have fans nicknaming Jared CoCo.
- Jason Garrett should be fired today. Dak should have signed for whatever was offered.
- Allen undefeated with the Panthers. I'm sure Cam is happy for him and the team.
- Failclowns...........LOL!

How many times did Calais Campbell get in? I heard his name a couple of times. Besides that, he was held in check pretty well.

Another solid performance by All Pro RT (at least in my eyes) Ryan Ramczyk.

We are 5-1 and I have a hangover.

A win is a win is a win. Loved watching this.

1. Penalties was way down. This is very important going forward.

2. Teddy was solid yet unspectacular. His second half was a lot better than the first. Dilfer has been mentioned and Brad Johnson won a SB too by not causing them to lose.

3. Cook caught all of his targets and especially the TD impressed me.

4. Great day for Morstead. Again.

5. Our run D is outstanding. The streak of keeping RBs under 100yds is still alive.

6. Thomas just keeps snagging the balls. He had a surprising drop early on thou.

7. Best game so far by Murray. I really like when he just powers trough. I would like to see him some in the I-formation.

8. Ginn was finally visible again and looked allright. We need Smith back thou.

9. Good coverage trough most of the game.

10. Cam Jordan had his best game of the season. The way he bullrushed that tackle was beautiful to see.

I'm trying to keep my Black and Gold glasses off when analyzing players but ...

Thomas Morestead - 6 punts, 5 of which were inside the 20 yard line. My son pointed it out that he's not only kicking the ball well but it has a damn back spin on it to roll away an extra 5, 6 yards. Jacksonville were pinned back with poor position a lot.

TM is truly a weapon @ punter.

Field position goes a LONG way to winning football games. Yesterday was yet another example. Morestead is worth every penny we pay him.

Both Williams are quietly putting together a very good season. I feel like Marcus is about to ball out. I was worried about our secondary early in the season especially because of how good our pass rush has been. I’m not worried anymore.

	W.T. Sherman is my favorite General. After all he did order Atlanta to be burned to the ground.
