after watching a bunch of interviews with manti, i want him. i have never seen a more softspoken guy. safe to say i have a man crush
It's not on Te'o. It's the Bama line dominating the game. This is a line that could very well have three guys taken in the top 45 picks.
In the bright lights Te'o disappears.. Has some missed tackles.. New York is a tough place to survive for anyone. I'd say we pass on him
You dont know what you're talking about. One sub par game doesn't define an incredible year. He's not a need but still can provide tremendous value at 9.
Every player has a bad game yes... But Te'o doesn't even look mad or,being vocal out there and guiding his troops.
Teo would be just another good defender if he was in the SEC...thought he was overrated before this game. No idea how he won almost every defensive award
Teo isn't having to fight through the line, alabama's linemen are hat on hat with Notre dames men, and lacy makes Teo look slow! How many tackles does he have? Big players rise in big occasions, and he hasn't. Maybe he is just not talented enough to play in this game? Maybe he and his defense r benefactors of an easy schedule? I hope the Jets pass, but if they get him, I hope he is the next Ray Ray! But he isn't, and it's easy to see.
How is playing Michigan, Michigan State, Oklahoma, Stanford, and USC an "easy schedule"? That's nonsense. Te'o is still one hell of a talent. You clearly have not watched him play all year.
johnythajet, manti is still a great player, but he has missed some tackles today. that was on him. hes still a top 10 pick and great, but he hasnt seemed like himself today
JohnnyThaJet, we get it. You like Manti, all well and good. But what is wrong with Barrett Jones & Chance Warmack? Take your eyes off following the ball and focus on the domination in the trenches, especially by those two. Besides 'Bama's steamrolling rushing attack, Notre Dame's Nix & co. haven't come within a MILE of pressuring McCarron. Click to zoom in on your remote - you're missing a cllinic. Man against boys. Oh and Notre Dame's secondary is donkey dick. 86 yards...14 plays...total domination.
Manti was bad tonight but he's still a stud, he's getting absolutely no help from their D-Line and other LB's, overall ND didn't show up
