Anyone notice Heath caught Megatron?

[xwalker]

Did anyone notice that Heath ended up making the tackle near the sideline after a big catch and run by Megatron?

There were 4 defenders chasing Megatron with Heath starting out near the back of the group but somehow surpassed the others to make the tackle.

Scandrick initially had at least a couple of steps on Heath. I think the other 2 defenders were Claiborne and Sims.

Yes, and its good you pointed it out. Great effort.

Claiborne had a good chance, but a handful of jersey by the Detroit player slowed him down. No call on that obvious hold...

Scandrick caused him to cut, Claiborne trips him (fell on him actually, he tried to strip the ball), and Heath finishes. That was a showcase of Scandrick's speed (timed faster than Johnson).

Heath seems to have good range from what I saw. He also caused that fumble by Bush.

heath played very well today.

heath played very well today.

yes, he did. it's being overlooked because of the larger fiasco that was this loss.

Between Heath and Wilcox, we finally have some athletic safeties. Hopefully with some playing experience, they can use their athleticism to cover well and be ball hawks.

i was more focused on Carr not making the tackle and Church whiffing on tackling CJ

on that deep play cj made near the end of the game heath was going up for the ball at it's highest point.

perfect timing...only difference is that calvin is 6'5" with insane vertical.

really was well played by heath.

OSCAN definitely still has the burners he came into the league with...would've easily outraced CJ in a footrace there.

Thats one of the brighter sides of this season. We will know next year what we have safety wise, and DL depth.

I noticed that too. He played it well but like in basketball, he got out rebounded by a bigger opponent.

The biggest weakness for this team for long time has been the safety play and the OL. OL seems to gotten better. I'm hoping the same for the safety position.

yea...also liked the way he tried to strip it going down.

 

[DallasDW00ds0n]

Yes they're all such great athletes... We're pretty lucky to have them, imagin if we had overrated guys ? Calvin would have had 500 yards and maybe even the actual TD with 12 secs left but out athletes held him at the 1! Hooray!

On one big pass to Megatron, Heath went up and just missed putting his hand on the ball. If he touches that ball, it's INC. I mean he was literally and inch or two off. Good instinct on that play. It's one game, no annointing oil but he did make a few good plays. I think he can develop if given the chance.

 

[SportsGuru80]

Heath played solid today... The defense overall looked horrible though.

 

[FiveRings]

Heath had a pretty good game. Heath>Matt Johnson.
