I think a lot of men that size would have just stood and let the LBs and DBs make the tackle. But he was running full speed after the receiver. He didn't get there in time to make the tackle, but he was right there when the tackle was made. Seems Jackson has quite a motor.

Quote:#Lions plan to sign defensive end Isaiah Thomas off the Bengals practice squad, per source. Former Browns draft pick gives Detroit some much-needed edge rush help.

50 sacks over the last 4 years, all double digit efforts.  Seeing as the jets just traded a 3 (that can become a 2) for davante, maybe it would only take a 3rd to bring him in.

which is always hard for us to do and I heard they are getting back Nick Chubb which is frightening. I do like our pass rush now
that Hubbard is somewhat healthy and Murphy is starting to show some good stuff.

McKinnley Jackson made some nice stops last night and had 3 pressures and Kris Jenkins always looks pretty good.

BJ Hill was dominant last night.

Don't look now but our weakness may have turned into a strength, we will see.

He didn't show up big in the numbers but just watching the abilities that he showed and his movements gave me hope that we have a good player if he can keep developing.

Like you said, it could be a strength and that could win us games.

The DLine was remarkably better.  Anyone downplaying that just has a b0n3r for losing.

They looked sloppy and unorganized at times, the O line was getting manhandled, Burrow nearly had a concussion, Zac's strange play calls again, the Giants showing no respect for the D going for a 1st on nearly every 4th down play and converting most times and QB Jones running at will doesn't inspire lots of confidence to me. Yes, the D played better but it is 1 win and they are still in a deep hole.

Realize the bengals have 8 sacks on the year, and even last week only had two.  Also keep in mind that they were playing one of the worst QBs in the league.

I know that you..as we all are frustrated by our current record..but this is a team..even with a hobbled offensive line the past four weeks that can play with any team in the NFL...and I think the remainder of the season will be a great deal of fun..There are no easy teams to beat in the NFL...ON any given Sunday even the supposedly worts teams in the NFL can beat the best
