Where did this guy come from?

He was making plays all over the field. Made a few big hits on ST and on defense. And he was talking trash that was audibly picked up by sideline mic.

This guy has something, and it isn't a Jeremy Leman-type of something. He seems to not only have a high motor, but also seems really athletic and his play just stuck out to me aside from all the obvious names (Jimmy, Cam, Armanti, Pilares, etc.).

I'm gonna go ahead and call it... this guy is making the team, and I could see him being a top LB reserve and ST standout.

The smack that he put on the NYG wedge after the kickoff was impressive. Martin got the call for tackling the ball carrier but I am fairly certain that TW was the guy that straight busted 3 dudes in the face at one time. That poo was critical.

He is a combination of thoma davis and deangelo williams, the name speaks for itself.

Joking aside the kid looked good and had great timing on blitzes, if we were still in the fox era he woulda flailed around and ran straight into the OL without seeing the gapping hole he ran through for the sack.

I had to Google him. Had no idea who he was or how we got him. He's actually 27, and first entered the league with the Jags as a 5th round pick. In '09, he was out of the league, then was with the Bills and us last year.

He sure played like he wants to stick around.

      Derrick Brown appreciation thread.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.

      Joe Person: Ickey is expected to be extended, Mays is someone we want to keep long term, TE, LB and OLB are our biggest needs heading into the offseason

      How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.

      I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
