    what? that one play that helped bring us #6? When he was playing for us almost everyone liked him. His ending was not good, but at least he didnt win a ring with the pats. He says idiotic things but most of these prima donna's do as well.

    I never associate nor tie any personal feelings to these players. They are solely for entertainment. Harrison played well for us therefore I liked him. Ben plays well for us therefore I like him. Would I trust anyone of them with my life? nope but they provide entertainment on sundays.

    heath miller is a different story lol

    He was my favorite player for a few years especially on defense. It was pretty much him and Bell. I never really liked AB.

    You say at least he didn't win a ring with the Pats because his plan failed. I'm not giving him a pass for that. You need to look at what he tried to do and if he succeeded. Not because his plan failed and he's running back with his tail between his legs.

    Maybe if he admitted he was wrong and cut off all ties with the Pats but he can't even do that. He's bashing Tomlin every chance he gets, defending the Pats for cheating, and now pumping up Gilmore over Watt for DPOY. You are basically supporting a Patriots cronie now. Congrats.

    I agree with SDOT on Harrison. AB is a punk too. Hope they are never added to the ring of honor at Heinz Field. If either of them are, I'll puke.

    So JH is not allowed to have his own opinion? Just because he used to be a Steeler doesn't mean he has to choose Steelers for everything. I disagree with him, but I don't have any issue with him having a personal opinion, and I don't see it as him being salty.

    I know Cowboys fans that hate Troy Aikman, because he doesn't hold back criticism on the Cowboys.... and the Cowboys deserve every bit of it.

    Gilmore: 'No question' I'm Defensive Player of the Year

    By Kevin Patra
    Around the NFL Writer
    Published: Dec. 19, 2019

    In recent years, Defensive Player of the Year honors has morphed into the "Best Disrupter of the Quarterback" award. Could this be the year voters finally buck that trend?

    Not since 2010 when safety Troy Polamalu took home the award has a defensive back won the DPOY honors. The year prior marked the last time a corner was given the hardware, Charles Woodson. Outside of a Luke Kuechly anomaly in 2013, the rest of the decade the award has been about getting to the passer.

    One of this year's current favorites, however, is New England Patriots cornerback Stephon Gilmore, who has dominated opposing receivers. Asked on 98.5 The Sports Hub's Zolak and Bertrand Show on Wednesday if he's the DPOY, Gilmore didn't hesitate.

    "I mean, my play speaks for itself," Gilmore said, via the Boston Globe. "If you really watch the tape each and every game, it's no question."

    Gilmore's play has been studly this season, smothering opponents and wiping out opposing stars seemingly with ease. The rest of the secondary in New England earned fantastic seasons as well, but Gilmore's ability to live on an island and dominate allows Bill Belichick's defense the freedom to operate.

    The raw stats back up the 29-year-old's claim to the DPOY trophy.

    His six INTs are tied for most in the NFL (with Bills corner Tre'Davious White), and he's one of just three players with multiple pick-sixes. Gilmore's 82 targets allowing zero touchdowns are tops in the NFL. His 32.8 passer rating when targeted this season is the second-lowest in the NFL, among CBs with a minimum 100 coverage snaps -- only his teammate J.C. Jackson is lower at 28.6.

    Gilmore told NFL Network's Deion Sanders on Sunday following his 2-INT performance against Cincinnati that he actually hopes quarterbacks target him more, instead of ignoring his side of the field.

    "I'm in a rhythm and I'm just daring the quarterback to throw at me and I'm just trying to make them pay..." he said. "Playing against the best guy, you have to really focus, every play is important -- if you don't play well on one play, it can cost your team. I try to focus each and every play, be in tight-coverage, try to be in great shape."

    More and more, the appreciation for the defensive backfield's work is being appreciated, even though much of it takes place outside the TV-audience's viewing range. While for generations, we've believed the rush was key to killing the passing game, newer analytics detail that tight smothering coverage like they play in New England can affect an offense more than a pass rush.

    Perhaps, in the end, an edge rusher like T.J. Watt -- deserving himself -- will take home the DPOY honors, but there is no question that Gilmore's play makes the corner worthy of being the first DB in nearly a decade to win the trophy.

    He allowed to have an opinion, as long as it agrees with mine. Otherwise,he's evil.

    A common sentiment in today's USA. Don't agree with me? It can't be because you have a sincere difference of opinion. You must be evil, stupid or are serving some hidden agenda.

    Team gives player a "chance."
    Player exceeds expectations.
    Player directly contributes to winning a SB.
    Player dedicates life to prepare for season.
    Team (aka Coach) underestimates player.
    Team (aka Coach) wastes player on the bench.
    Team (aka Coach) doesn't have a pass rush.
    Player could generate pass rush.
    Team (aka Coach) wastes player on the bench when defense needs him.
    Player gets fed up with stupid coach.
    Player wants to contribute and play for a winner.
    Team (aka Coach) doesn't care about player.
    Player leaves for Patriots.
    Ignorant fans blame player.

    Did I miss anything?

    I love Watt but a shutout corner with today's rules is very hard to find.

    Gilmore has 6 ints. 2 in which came against the one win Bengals. Watt alone has 2 ints with 6 forced fumbles and 13 sacks. Watt has had way more of an impact.
