I think Treon still had more yards than Jeff Demps.
Certainly more than Jeff Dip****.

I didn't realize injun had a job in the NFL until I watched the Falcon's special teams. Even Mrs Dougie was screamed "why aren't they jumping on the ball."

Perfect example of how one person saying something convincingly enough can influence an entire group. I was thinking later, that rule may be the one rule that hasn’t changed a bit in their entire lifetime, regardless of year or what level they were playing. A bunch of paid professionals who absolutely know better sitting there like, “oh yeah, that’s right.” Incredible. I still don’t even know exactly what they were thinking.

I've watched it a couple of times, and I'm baffled. One of the few rules the NFL hasn't messed up, I've heard former players try to explain it. But at the end of the day, all it takes is one player to knock the ball out of bounds or fall on it game is over.

As bad as his two issues were, and this is some how worse.

Imagine KJ and Stiner.

We can throw the Dazzler in there for 2010 (plus his bonehead text that got him suspended).

My first thought was "I'd rather not.. My second was, KJ may have actually been better than Jaewon Taylor and we saw plenty of JT & Stiner. So, Fuch, I guess we don't have to imagine too much. The only difference would be how much faster KJ was in getting to the wrong spot.

maybe it should have been KJ and Taylor. I don't actually remember either of those two doing anything right.
Stiner at least got that one suicide blitz (when we left one man uncovered in Man 0) vs Cowbell.

Honestly, his pick in the endzone against Auburn last year probably won the game for us. Not the guy I prefer having back there, but he isn't a head case and, as you said, is light years better than Taylor. Four years of significant playing time and I couldn't tell you one positive play from JT. Not sure how that's possible.

So, Kyle's family made a highlight reel for him (not kidding) and the best part is that the first two plays are vintage KJ, he waits back with no attack and while he gets the tackle on Moreno, it is closer to a trip by standing in the way than any sense of a highlight reel tackle. The next play is him taking an awful angle on Moreno and giving up an additional 30 yards for a near TD. There's another awful angle about 5-6 plays in against SC & Davis. It's like his own family is fuching with him. He does make a nice pick against La Tech at about the 3 minute mark. That might have been the career play you couldn't recall.

One of those players that actually seemed promising as a Freshman, but almost regressed with each year. And I think he had Heater or Holliday as his position coach, which makes it even stranger. But I'll add this. He's one of the coolest former players I've ever met and bleeds orange and blue. Incredibly good guy who I've been around on several occasions. If we're talking strictly play on the field, not the best. But in real life, he's exactly what we want our players to be like and has done very well for himself.

I've heard he's a great dude too.
if you look at all the other safeties on the team during that era, he was replaced once by Reggie Nelson and the second time by Major Wright, there's no way to blame that on coaching. Either you want it or you don't. Nelson, Wright, Black wanted it. They wanted the ball, more than the receiver, and they wanted to hit.
I don't know where the game last year but some running back took a swing pass and goes to the left side line, Taylor and Steiner show up they pause for a second break down perfectly..... and the running back splits them. half-hearted arm tackles are ignored.
when I see something like that I wonder what Black and Elam think. Just no predator instinct. Back when we were good, our safeties wear feared.

Yeah, I remember reading about that play somewhere.
Get help, pal.
