    That wasn’t even the worst example. I saw a few plays where the play wasn’t even over and he gave up. There were a couple examples near the sidelines.

    I guess you forgot about his great record in the AFCCG at home 1-4 :facepalm:, it was almost 0-5 if the Colts complete that hail mary in the 1995 AFCCG.

    Adding my opinion to the topic, count me in as well for opting to go with Ulysees Gilbert III. Granted, I would have imagined he would be slowly integrated in some capacity to the defense much later in the season. Due to the current circumstances however, throw caution to the wind!!!


    At the absolute least, decrease Mark Barron's snap count and start to give Gilbert some snaps. Gilbert is likely to one day start alongside Devin Bush given Mark's contract. Might as well see if Gilbert has what it takes.


    He SURELY does not have the effort of Barron... I hope.

    No excuse for Barron, but it looks like everyone on defense is jogging on that play.

    You mean the same qb that took a seven step drop to throw a three yard pass in '94. Or, the same qb that underperformed in that AFC. Or, the same qb, that actually loss the superbowl for us. This was the time of steelers football where you could actually blame a loss on the player and not a coach. Keep going this fun

    Vince Williams can't get back soon enough. Williams ain't the greatest, but at least he gives 100% effort.

    Yep, several players there giving less than their best effort. To be fair they must be absolutely fed up of being on the field all day long every game but you still gotta try.

    Burns, Davis & Edmunds are a few Popcorn picks imo.

    Tht looked like the whole team just said well he caught and is going out of bounds so meh. No hustle after the completion at all, not to mention that it was a strange almost Troy P. type play call without baby Jesus out there.

    Horrible??? Seattle game he had 6 tackles, .5 sack, a qb hit and a fumble recovery for a TD only the score didn't count because Davis hit a guy in the back that had no chance to make a play.:cool:

    Maybe “Run Dadgum it” isn’t enough incentive or they’re still trying to figure out what a dadgum is.....
