How strong is Heyward?

Just thought I'd throw that out there. He was straight up manhandling people today with his tackles. On more than a few occasions I saw him just grab a handful of jersey and make the opposition look like a child and throw them to the ground.

On another note, after seeing Clark play today, he seemed to be go back to his old way of hitting by lowering the helmet. I don't know if that was intentional or what. It's funny, the play he was flagged on today was probably the play where it was the least obvious he lead with a helmet. Oh well, can't win them all.

 

He's been lighting it up for the last month. Love what I'm seeing out of him. Seems like a real down to earth guy too.

 

He was really making them work for it. I would like to see him take a double team a little more though.

The Clark penalty wasn't on him at all. He was already lower than his shoulders and he came down to Clarks helmet.

 

Steelhead Heyward

 

i don't want to go to far but i think we finally found the aaron smith replacement , too bad we lost almost all the other pieces of the defense

 

I'd add worilds to the list of defensive playmakers this year. he and heyward have been it. trouble is we may lose one of the two.

 

if we eat the dead money on woodley and we structure the worilds contract with fat sb and low base salary for the first year , could be a solution

 

He's a keeper. Worilds is a keeper. But, with the possible exception of Troy and Timmons, not too many others on defense are.

 

I think we might have just found Omar's replacement.
