Logan Wilson

Guys runs around the field with no hesitation. If anything in his game has changed it’s that he has no questions about it once he finds out where the play is going. Sideline to sideline type.

Another INT today, right?

What's he on pace for now? The most INTs by a LB that I can recall is 5 by Thurman in 2005.

I'd say a lot of ADG's improvements are due to playing next to Wilson as well.

Man if we have a LB with 10 INTs, would that be an NFL record for LBs?

Bob Smith had 9 in 1952.

Sheesh. You have to go back 69 (heh) years to find a guy with 9, and our dude is on pace for 13?

Playmaker.

I am not a big "Pro Bowl" guy, but it would be nice if he received more National attention (tough with no more Primetime games), although our girl Kay Adams really liked him that morning after the TNF game.  

As far as the reason, I really liked his background as a defensive back, and he is a tireless worker.  The added talent on the front four has allowed all the LBs to use their speed and cover sideline-to-sideline clean.

The Detroit game has not been added to PFF for the YTD scores as of yet, but the three highest rated defensive players are Reader, Tupou, and BJ Hill, in that order.  

If I had to give an award to the Defensive Player of the Year right now, though, it would have to be Awuzie.  That guy has been outstanding.  Made a key stop on Hockenson on third down while Detroit was still in it.  Absolutely love that guy.  

I think Bates is still Bates and teams are just saying "we aren't going to test him" and checking everything underneath with a few exceptions.

We have a stud at each level of our defense. Really all I feel we are missing is a couple more speed rushers to help on third downs. Ossai would be one.

Yep, you know the D line and Linebackers are getting it done when you don't hear Bates and Bell mentioned much.

10th in total tackles
5th in forced fumbles
2nd in interceptions

Looks like the making of a Pro Bowl season to me.
