bump If he was playing like shit we would be all over him. Give credit where credit is due. This guy is playing way better then we,especially I expected. Tackles, hes actually getting to the qb just no sacks to show for it. He actually does'nt look too bad in coverage either. Hats off to b. thomas
I sure do agree with you! IMO BT will be a very good player for us. He WANTS to be on the field at all times, even when it rains!
Back to the loss of weight thing... He did lose a ton of weight because he had some dental issue plus he was living on his own for the first time and didn't know how to cook or care for himself. He had obviously lived with his mom in HS and in the athlete dorms in college and then found himself on his own and wasn't sure how to take care of himself. So he lost a ton of weight and was ineffective. I love what I see and have always liked him. The guy plays the run quite well. WELCOME BACK #99!
It's really nice to see BT have some success. The guy was in a lousy situation for 4 years. He had 2 pro bowl calibur players in front of him..and a head coach that had no concerns about how to develop BT's raw skills. He was bashed by fans and media alike being labeled a bust...and we never heard of him ever being ill-willed or lazy. He just kept working hard and staying upbeat. He's gotten better every game ive watched him at OLB when you include the preseason. It's really nice to see him find success and be a great player for us.
I saw this coming for a while...I have been a BT supporter the whole time...he's not a bigtime playmaker yet, but he defines the word SOLID for now. Hopefully he keeps on improving
