Dude kept showing up everywhere......I think they may have found something in this kid! Kinda reminds me of how Bland came on the scene and just kept making plays!
Exactly right. It's what you look for when scouting a football player. Someone who isn't scared to play hard. He just seems to get it.

Took a weird angle in that Hail Mary TD; but had a good game prior to it

Mukuamu should have stopped McLaurin . The first problem with that play Zimmer had 3 rushing the QB . Not enough . Harass the QB don’t give him time to spot the target and time for the target to run free get wide open .

I was at the game. And I was so surprised at his level of play. To me, he has had the single best game at CB all season...knocking down passes, contesting throws, making tackles. I was like "who is this guy???"

We need more hungry, young players.

How is old Fed Ex field holding up . During the broadcast they said politicians were working to bring Wash football back to DC out of the suburbs .

this kid played very well but there’s a couple people in here that thinks he should start on Thursday and we talking about replacing digs are you kidding me he had one good game he was solid in his couple appearances now against Noah Brown and some of those other types he saw it but we’re talking about bland, diggs ,and Lewis on the field Thursday that would be the lineup you need for your starters this kid should be active every week though getting nickel and dime and in case there’s an injury

Let’s not get carried away here the first time he gives up a big play and misses a Cackler something he’s gonna be on your guys hit list Lol

And lastly I don’t know if it was here whenever I read yesterday somebody mentioned we could trade dates next year because of this performance by this kid are you serious idiot you thinking these things this is why this place needs to have some checks and balances control your emotions people. FYI we would not be better without Parsons and digs and if it hasn’t shown on the field this defense is so much better with Parsons paired with overshown and Kendrick then it has been in a very long time immediately first game back the defense look better with Parsons

No but most consistent. Will put his nose in and tackle. This is tackle football. Diggs can be so special if he's willing to do be a tackler. Give me the guy that doesn't know any better but to play the right way over the "elite athlete" .
last two years he’s been a lot better tackler maybe you haven’t noticed because you like hating on the guy but when he’s injured or coming off an injury he’s hesitant to tackle and I don’t blame him but so much better you mean like Deion Sanders Mr. business decision you’re trying to tell me you listen that guy‘s career because he wasn’t physically wanna know guys are like this but I’ve seen things have some great games last year he had a hurt hand nobody knew much about this he’s coming up I didn’t read and he has an incision injury and you said he should be more physical ? I think maybe you just want to say negative things because of some bad place but I’ve seen him be more physical than he used to be in early in his career

He needs to be starting. He's playing better than Diggs.
ONE GAME AGAINT BACKUPS. . Eric overreactions he called back up yesterday Noah Brown he had one good game and now he should replace big did you guys are extra you gotta stop the nonsense we got three very good corners that need to start and yes this kid look good he deserves a shot at a nickel and dime and work as William through injuries but he’s not replacing big plane but the pipe down thank you next ...


I mean literally we watch digs cover Nico and other big-time wide receivers and do a very good job you don’t like the way he tackles he’s been injured a lot he tackles pretty well when he wants to or Tanner has the ability to do when he’s not afraid of injuring himself more

hey overreactions that’s not my name wrong with you guys I can’t wait to this kid played like five games and covers actually somebody on a regular basis Diggs is already proved he is better than Butler because he’s done it since his rookie yea, set records not just for interceptions he’s improved his coverage and he does tackle no he’s not a safety no he’s not a linebacker but he tackles winning guilty it’s necessary so let’s go to tacos Lola covers a back up and now he replaces one of our stars why did you need to get out of the fumes ‍♂️

the kid just plays the game and don't know how to make business decisions. I want a team full of guys like him. Hès hungry and very motivated. Him, Lewis and Bland make us dangerous on the backend. Hooker/dono had a nice game too.

What do you mean what you reacted to this kid playing one game in a couple snaps in another game that’s why trying to replace digs with a kid hasn’t covered a single big wide receiver yet a really good top notch receiver which Diggs for talking about the need to start over Diggs is ridiculous overreaction dramatic extra stuff that comes in here it’s insane Lamo you’re overreacting

Literally way too small sample size exactly what do you think you saw over really one game in a couple snaps against not the number one wide receiver is not even a number two wide receiver literally your way way too soon I want extra by the way you had mentioned he should replace digs blah blah blah blah that’s all I heard

I don't wanna replace Diggs but what choice is there when he won't tackle? Diggs might be the best db in the NFL when he actually plays the right way. What happens when he decides to take his ball and go home in game? We get beat. LEADERS need to play like it. Butler will never be elite like Diggs, but he's got dawg in him. Hès a dat gum gritty football player that seems to play the same way all the time. He has done it 2 games in a row btw. Imagine what our team can be with better coaching next year.

Calm down. Jeesh. He played well last week too. He was in the game. This isn't just a flash in the pan. Diggs is special but he takes too many plays off and I have a problem with it. He could be Darrele Revis but chooses to be a good cb known for not tackling.

Hardly. He had a lot of tackles bc he gave up a lot of catches. His PFF score for the game was only 50.1. His tackling grade was 82.9 which is great but his coverage grade was 48.5. As Dieon Sanders said just a few weeks ago, if you see a CB with a lot of tackles, its probably bc he gave up a lot of catches.

He did exactly what we asked of him and more. Even Jordain Lewis acknowledged it. He broke up bunch of passes too. He aint a ball hawk and may never be, but he is a very good cb that should be getting more reps every week. Hes unafraid of contact.
