WTS, one of the best "next man up's" has been the long snapper

BTW I know Apple got beat, but you gotta be in a defense with safety help in that scenario.

WTS, it was dude's first game-day action and everyone else is in mid-season form. Looking forward to him getting up to speed and moving Apple to the nickle, but it ain't that time yet
I'm not sure where much of this is coming from? I sit 20 rows from the field on the 40 yard line in section 139 on the opposing team sideline (the side Apple & CTB played in the 3rd Qtr) and he looked very solid. Lots of knowledgeable fans around my seats and we were watching him, very aggressive tackler. He played pretty tight coverage and comes off his man to make tackles and take on blockers. I watched the condensed TV replay tonight and I don't see how anyone could come up with a negative assessment of CBT from watching the game on TV? Last week there were complaints from some who only listened on the radio.... so not sure what to make of some comments.
But rest assured CTB looked more than ok in his debut and no doubt he will have his welcome to the NFL moment eventually as teams will look to challenge him in the future.
