In an article by the Charlotte Observer. Coach McDermott had this to say in the article, praise for TD by other coaches.

“I had a coach call me this morning and say I’m showing my guys that play,” said McDermott on Monday afternoon, though he would not reveal who the coach was or which pro team he’s affiliated with. “That is awesome fundamentals. It’s a lost art. To make that tackle in space, with nobody else around, and a back of Sproles’ quality, I think is phenomenal fundamentals and it’s a leader leading by example.”

I really don't know how you can narrow it down to just one. Davis was eviscerating anyone and everyone within his line of sight. That Man is fanning the flames of an ember of success I'm not sure that I have seen before in this defense. The outcome being a nucleus of atoms that might possibly result in a new element listed on the periodic table.

That play, when considered alongside Ealy's open-field takedown of Wilson last week, really shows the discipline and sound fundamentals of the defense as a whole.  Perfect games are hard to have (as shown by the long TD run), but this defense is impressive.

Out of all of the A+ players we have on this team, TD is the closest to his twilight.  TD knows his time is short, I hope so bad they can get a ring for everyone on this team but TD deserves one more than anybody.

TD has always played intensely, but it seems like he has ratcheted up his intensity even more this year as he knows that these next couple years are probably his last couple to win the SB. he seems to set the tone on defense with his intensity, almost trying to will this team to win.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      First off, my memory is faulty and so I should remember you. Anyways, welcome back. Having been around here since 2004/2005, I do have to say all these hot takes are not necessary new. I still very much remember all the constant complaints about Jake Delhomme. How he was too inaccurate, fumbled the ball too often, threw bad interceptions, and how Steve Smith deserved a better QB. How this franchise needed to replace Jake for someone better because he dragged everyone down. We even had names for Jake defenders; Blind Delhomme Jock Sniffers (BDJS). That one thread about Chris Weinke over Jake Delhomme because Weinke threw for 423 Yards but only scoring 13 points remains the worst hot takes I've ever seen around here. So to me, it feels like history repeating itself again and I don't feel like getting that much involved in flame wars like I used to. I am more of a sit back and see what the players/team does type of person. And even then, yes, there are so many moving parts that it's not as easy to pinpoint the core issues, especially when you're not inside the building and know every single detail.  And yes, I think even way back then, I hated how overvalued the QB position was and it hasn't gotten much better. It's to where my philosophy has shifted to where if you can't win a SB with a QB on their rookie contract, you might as well get another one. Otherwise, you have to give that QB so much money that the rest of the roster suffers and your window becomes quite narrow.  That's why I'm skeptical that Mahomes/Burrow/Jackson/Allen will win more than one or two SB's between them. None of them look as invisible as they did a few years ago and that's because their targets are much inferior and/or they are getting more roughed up behind a worse O-line.

      Haha I was still off was thinking of mac jones he has done extremely well this year with basically no weopons as all the 49ers are hurt except for mcaffrey but he is playing slow this year for some reason.
