Spencer is good

I think Spencer might be one of the better all around OLBs in a 3-4 in the league. But I sincerely doubt he'll ever be as good as Ware at pass rushing. Ware is a special player, and I can't imagine us having two of those.
 
Ok enough with the Ware comparisons... Why can't we just say Dallas should be grateful to have both of them.
 
Spencer has a been a beast all season long, and Ware has been a beast too even with all of the injuries and extra attention. Not sure you can stop the two of them right now, good luck.
 
How about some love for Bradie James? He was all over the place all night had a drive killing strip (and recovery) plus a great sack on mcchunky pinning them near their goalline.

Guy was as big a part of the game as anyone.

Dude, I keep an eye on D-Ware on almost every play and he's NOT double-triple teamed...sometimes, he's not even chipped by a RB.

I've said this in past weeks that I think that there MAY BE something more wrong with D-Ware than the injuries that we know of OR his leg injury is affecting him more than we are being told.

Now, I did notice tonight that he was doubled more than he was last week.

In the end, we don't know what defense is called and if he is told to keep contain unless a run and THEN go up field or what....

We all know that Ware has been really banged up this year: stinger, concussion, strained neck, broken wrist, broken foot, etc. I think that is enough to count for the slight drop in sacks. You also have to remember that sacks are a bit of a streaky stat. Ware led the league in QB pressures by a large margin - 54 this year. Something like 20 more than any other player.

I do hope he will get a chance to rest and heal up in the offseason. I also really hope some of the backups at OLB can play a few snaps so we can let Ware have some breathers so he is fresh late in the game.

He's close already.....in fact, he's out-played D-Ware a couple of times....last week for example. D-Ware was pretty absent with only one tackle and not many pressures at all. Spencer out-played him.

Now, some will think that this is a slam on D-Ware, which it's not....FCOL.

Yeah, Ware has been a force (how many times did he swipe at McNabb's feet only to barely miss tonight), so it's not like we're comparing Spencer to a no-show here.

Spencer has simply been lights out. I can't believe what a force he is opposite Ware.

I am telling you this guy could almost be as good as Ware next year. He is a force already.

SOME people have been saying that all year while others were scheming on ways to have him replaced by Butler. He has been outstanding the entire season, but has really taken it to the next level.

On the field, Ware/Spencer is starting to look alot like Taylor/Banks or Jackson/Swilling.

:bow:

Awesome reference to the last pair there. People don't realize how good they were.

Swilling was a little later, I think, but I'm pretty sure Wade coached at least Jackson, too. ;)

I'm so mad I didn't rush out to Marshalls and get a $29 #93 jersey when theebs mentioned seeing them. :(
