    Harrison makes the play of the day. With the strip sack. He is starting to play better and made the huge play in this game.

    :this!: I don't think people realize how he was playing hurt this whole year. His knee may not get to 100 per cent this year but he is getting stronger each game.

    Not doubting, but flaccid helped by holding the ball too long

    He still needs to take a pay cut and get restructured. He'll be what? 35? next season.

    He's looking stronger the last couple of games.

    I'm sorry, but 1 good play doesn't justify all the bad games he's had. For the money he's making, he's not doing enough.

    We need to see those kind of plays more often.

    I agree that we are used to seeing James make plays like that more often. And I agree that we would like to see some more of those plays and more regularly. But...I don't think we should underestimate his contribution to the defense even when he's not making those "splash" plays. The right side of our run defense is rarely beaten badly (and it seems hardly ever challenged), and I think that may have a lot to do with #92. He and Kiesel make that side of our defense pretty stout against the run.

    Now the left side is another story...

    /shrug my 2 cents anyway

    What's funny is he was being held again on that play. It's a sneaky hold where they grab his arm and lead him around wide with just a little tug that he fought through.

    I did see the clothes-line hold a few times that wasn't called.

    :this!: They are not running his way! He's also running some stuff down from behind the play as well.

    at this point i think Woodley is better and im really liking Worilds. not sure if Harrison is worth the big contract at this point. lets see how the rest of the season plays out.

    Maybe they should move Worilds to Woodley's side and Woodley to Harrison's side to strain his injury prone hamstring less.

    If Harrison does not take a pay cut.

    I think Silverback's demise was highly
    exaggerated.
