Much needed win turns into a blowout. My game ball goes to Mac & the entire coaching staff.
Last game in Miami is next!

And he had his 4th TD dropped by Wilkerson on a pretty good throw.Mac, OL, Khan. Covid deserves some credit, but fuck covid.
Mac was thoroughly under control today, even when he did have pressure. No happy feet, only one duck. Lots of good throws, touch throws. Finally started dry humping the seams. Good to see the bounceback.
Right up there with the RUTGERS LOL takes. They got three starting caliber secondary players (DMC, Ryan, Harmon), including one mainstay Pro Bowler in DMC, from the school.Barmore for finally getting a sack to go along with his outstanding pressure all year. Wilkerson for showing us what a backup X should be. Dugger for not just his int but his run defense too. Remember how people dunked on Bill for his 2nd round DB choices? What a dumb narrative based on a small sample size. Can we kindly put that to bed now? Dugger might be a pro bowler next year.
Don't forget Tiquan Underwood!Right up there with the RUTGERS LOL takes. They got three starting caliber secondary players (DMC, Ryan, Harmon), including one mainstay Pro Bowler in DMC, from the school.
Or Super Bowl champion Tim WrightDon't forget Tiquan Underwood!
Run blocking aside, is there any reason Wilkerson shouldn't be taking Harry's spot going forward?Barmore for finally getting a sack to go along with his outstanding pressure all year.

I say Wilkerson gets next week's kill shot against the Dolphins and then can assess from there. One week at a time.Run blocking aside, is there any reason Wilkerson shouldn't be taking Harry's spot going forward?
Going from Harry to Wilkerson you just see what Harry lacks. He lacks speed, quickness, route running, etc. Wilkerson’s hands are probably what is holding him back from being a spot-starter/backup. That and I am not sure about him dealing with physicality on his route or at the catch point. It’s tough to know much vs the Jaguars though because they are just so bad. Miami will be a much better test.Run blocking aside, is there any reason Wilkerson shouldn't be taking Harry's spot going forward?
He wrecked the blocking scheme to allow Hightower through on the early sack, too. Took out his OL and the RB in the blitz pickup.I know he's not perfect, but I'm seeing a much-improved Ja'Whaun Bentley this year who seems to be a little quicker in a space, and is an absolute monster in run fills. He's not someone you necessarily build around in this NFL, but he appears to have slimmed down a bit and done a lot of work to improve his weaknesses, and I think he's at least an above-average starter at this point, even if he isn't going to do anything too flashy.
On the flip side, he has had thru-the-roof success with undrafted FA's at CB. First, Randall Guy, then Malcom "GO" Butler, and now JC Jackson. So how about a game ball for JCJ timing Lester Hayes and Everson Walls for the most INT's thru his first four seasons?Barmore for finally getting a sack to go along with his outstanding pressure all year.

Just FYI they got this wrong on the broadcast (though I believe corrected themselves after the fact). They are tied for 2nd, as Blount got 18 during the 2016 season. Completely on board with the game ball for JCJ by the way...I couldn't believe he's up there with Hayes and Walls.On the flip side, he has had thru-the-roof success with undrafted FA's at CB.

Also, a game ball to Harris for timing Curtis Martin for most TD's in a season.
I knew that. I meant to type "tieing Curtis Martin for second-most TD's in a season." Total brain-fart on my part.Just FYI they got this wrong on the broadcast (though I believe corrected themselves after the fact). They are tied for 2nd, as Blount got 18 during the 2016 season.
