    Willie Gay

    is having a heck of a game... and a solid season for that matter. Great off season pick up by the black and gold.

    Absolutely. He got lucky on the under-thrown deep ball, but overall, he had a very good game.

    And he is a top shelf character guy, too. Good to see him having success.

    Willie has been solid, Allen has been a disappointment but even he seems to be getting better as the weeks go on and he heals.

    I was vehemently against this signing. But I will man up and gladly recognize I was wrong. He has had a real solid start to the year and I am glad to see it. You really can't ask for much more, he has played well vs the run and the pass.

    We'd have been in trouble without Gay...nice to have him playing well back there.

    I pointed out his great play over a week ago and it continues to get better. Gay is a solid tackler and is big enough to play against the bigger WRs. If he struggles anywhere, it is with covering guys that are burners. Carnell Lake and his coaching brings out the best in these CBs.

    agreed. Kind of makes you wonder if the FO knew what they were doing when they decided to let Kennan Lewis walk...

    Hmm, that makes for an interesting discussion.

    Gay > Lewis?

    Anybody care to comment?

    I don't think I'd let the euphoria of a solid season for Willie cloud what we have seen in the past, which is, he seems to be better suited as the nickle DB, IMO. Maintaining his current level of play against opponents #2 receivers and the occasional #1 remains to be seen. Here's to hoping that Willie can maintain his current level of play and that Cortez Allen gets his feet under him and improves as well.

    Way to go to Willie!
