    Hats off to the defense

    They did a good job and kept this game in check.... I can't say enough about Heyward. Timmons had a terrific interception... These guys never stopped bringing it despite the yards put up against them. I forgot how much turnovers could mean to a game.. Something we haven't experienced in a while...

      Yes, he seems to be finding his way thru all this and knows how to handle what is thrown at him. And to keep an offense like this down to a minimum is especially impressive.

        What or why did Harrison put a lick on that player that caused the flag to be thrown ? Ha ha guys were practically walking back to the huddle when James cut him in half .

          The player was trying to sneak the ball from Mike while he was on the ground.

              I thought it would be important to keep the Cardinals to under 20 points today and wondered how they'd do it. The fact that they were able to hold them down even further speaks volumes. After having been stat-line heroes in losing efforts over the years, it's good to be on the other side.

                This defense may not be winning the yardage wars, but they are only giving up 18 points a game. Plus getting turnovers and all this with an "O" that has done mostly nothing with the ball with Vick at the wheel. They have had to play far more plays per game as of late. Yet they just keep on bringing it. Let's here it for the unknowns of the NFL and their play as a unit on this team👍👍👍

                  Man, Harrison was good today, especially form the ROLB position. I didn't like what I saw as much when he lined up as LOLB. But, man, a 37 year old OLB in the NFL playing at the levbel he is playing at right now is unreal. He had mistakes and was blocked a few times, but for the most part he was really good toady. Here's to James.

                    Change is good. Butler is what this team needed. He remembers that being an attacking defense is what gets the job done. If we had a half way competent secondary we would likely be undefeated.

                          JJ was out with an injury, but I don't remember what it is. Something with his hip I think.

                            Apparently, James didn't practice this week. Still, he was able to suit it up. Jarvis Jones? He took the week off.
