It was an awful play, sure. I wasn't defending the play. Just the criticism of the player in general.
That poor guy took more undeserved ish from some of our fans for simply being in the frame of a bad play than any player I can remember in recent history. He then went on to play several more seasons at a relatively high level on a better defense than ours, without so much as a 'hmmm, guess I was wrong about him not being able to play' from most of them. And he was a good player for us for a long time. I think he deserves better than he got.
