View Full Version : Props to Shanle
Stepped in for Dat and we missed nothing. Made a key tackle in red zone on McSoup scramble. And was stellar in coverage. I tip my cap -
Kids a football player - period.

yeah... sure... Bradie James (this weeks leader of the defense) played a lot better

Shanle didn't save a touchdown and Shanle didn't make a 3rd down tackle to end a series or a 4th down tackle to end the game
Bradie James did.

I sorta thought they won in spite of him.

He did play a decent game..
James stepped up well. Shanle snared McNabb at 5 on a QB scramble on the FG sequence. Huge play.
Dat was out and Shanle stepped in and we skipped no beat. Fact.

They say that Shanle is better in coverage than Dat and Westbrook did virtually nothing today.
Coincidence?

Bingo -
BP said in a preseason PC that Shanle was the best coverage LB we had. We kept Westbrook in check? Coincidence? I think not too...

Shanle looked good. He should be about 6'9" / 295lbs about now. Think I read that BP had him clocked at a 4.3 as well.

Nors called this one, gotta give him that. I was very nervous about Nguyen being hurt, but Shanle and Bradie James stepped up, bigtime.
Nope - Shanle is 6-2 245
A walk on at Nebraska, late round draft pick.
Kid has earned everything he has. He'll smack you in the jaw, covers like a demon and was a nice part of our win. Replaces Dat and gives up 3 points to Eagles - and stiffs westbrook. He didn't SUCK if thats what some are trying to say.
Give the kid props - he deserves it -

There were two reasons why you started this thread.
1) Your never-ending self-promotion.
2) To get a rise out of people.
I was just trying to help you out with No. 2.
He probably played pretty well. I haven't broken down the films yet in my basement.
I do believe that Dat Nguyen is still a better player.

It helped our linebackers that we were in a four man line much/most of the time.
Looked like a 4-2-5 with Roy moving up to the line, alot.

Thats our nickle - Great when we are up 24 in the first half! Life is good! We can then sit back and grind it out.
We won the game attacking first half!

We played the nickel extensively....including the first half.
Shanle had three tackles. Sorry if I don't slobber all over him. I'd still rather have Dat in there.

Maybe tackles aren't all that?
Maybe its better to defend and thwart passes in coverage! Go Shanle! Win against eagles starting! What is Dats record there?
Changing of the guard in place!

LOL. Hypocrite. Who was the one posting Singleton's game line every time he had a 3 tackle game with no FF, sacks or interceptions?
Fine, I am in a good mood after the game. Props to Shanle. I hope he continues to excel.
Shanle is a football player.
He deserves some props. He started in place of Dat and we gave up 3 defensive points. Chicken littles were in dispair with Dat and his experience out.
Westbrook was shut out and Shanle was a big part of that....

What about Bradie James? Wasn't he the signal caller in place of Dat? I know Dat was on the sideline helping, but still. James also made a huge touchdown stopping pass deflection. Let's not give Shanle ALL the credit, our defense collectively played lights out.

Well, I'm one of Shanle's fans. He's just always around the ball. I thought he was very good again today. So I'm not too surprised. I think he's a good player.
Bradie James is the guy who I thought really stepped up today. He's been one of those guys I've been very patient with because I think the day is coming when he's just going to "get it". Whenever that happens, assuming it does, I think he can be a very good player. Did the bulb come on today?
Shanle and James stepped up - changing of the guard!
Old guys can't beat Eagles, new guys did - simple math!
