How about Darqueze Dennard for holding down the other corner spot with a great game!

To me, Burfict looked like he was all over the place and making meaningful plays. When he went off the field and Nickerson replaced him it looked like Joey Votto being replaced by Scott Hatteburg.
Dunlap did show intensity today too, but I go Burfict then Dunlap.

I’m going with Dre Kirkpatrick. That was a beautiful pick. If memory serves, he stole two from Peyton Manning in 2014.

The numbers weren't big for Andy, but he had more key plays than anyone. The 3 TD's were all nice. Got a couple of key defensive penalties on long throws. The 6 yard run converted a key third down. He went something around 8/10 with 3 scores on third downs.
All with our RB's going for 45 yards on 23 carries (1.96 per carry)

With 190 total yards of offense and losing the time of possession battle 25-35 minutes I dont see how you could go with an offensive player.
Burfict in tough conditions played his ass off.

In all seriousness, it's Dalton, and it's not even close, the guy keeps on plugging no matter what, He's kinda like a less talented Favre. 2 or 3 interceptions, no problem; he grins and keeps throwing. And, when he's on a good roll like today, he keeps rolling! And, let's not forget; he's produced like he has with this coaching staff, pretty incredible if you stop and think about it.

The 16 million dollar man, Brockulus gets my vote.. He was wonderfully terrible most of the game..

I'm just glad after getting wide open for a TD we were smart enough to throw one more time to Erickson. Cant remember if that was before or after we threw to the TE with the cast on his hand. Either way after making a good play i figured he would be totally phased out. The fact we went back to the well one more time way later in the game surprised the shit out of me

Dre. He set the tone for not giving up with that pick almost 6.
Runner up is Andy for 3 timely TD passes that were all beauties...

I agree. Erickson should get more play time and looks.

Burfict in tough conditions played his ass off.
1. We scored 20 points on the road, including a clutch TD to seal the game late.
2. That "offensive player" accounted for 83% of our yards and 92% of our first downs. With RB's going for 45 yards on 23 carries. Not his fault the total yardage was low. Blame the run blocking for that.
3. The TOP is just as much the defense's fault as the offense's. The defense played well overall today, but not on 3rd downs. They allowed 12 3rd down conversions and a 4th down conversion.
I won't question your pick though.

I actually thought about listing Shaw. Dude stepped up in the nickle today after a rough game last week and delivered some really good tackles.

And that clutch TD came off a defensive turnover as did our first TD. Defense was absolutely the reason we won today.

They went one yard for one TD. Scored a whopping 7 points in the 2nd half which to their credit raised their average.
