A Pass rush specialist who had 2 sacks last year and can never beat his man one on one?
I would have, and Im serious, cut his ass yesterday if we had anyone else to go to. That play cost us significant time, and made the defense stay on the field in the most lopsided TOP game I have watched in a long time. It would have been 23-21 with the Hawks getting the ball in the 4th instead of 27-21, with more time remaining.
The guy is very near bust status, and to pull that stuff out of bounds, at that point in a road game.... WOW, just WOW.
Wow....
1) This was his first game this season. He didn't play last week and was out all of preseason. I thought he did fine except for the penalty.
2) He was not used as a pass rush specialist last year. They switched him to a LB and wasn't called on to pass rush as often.
3) He had 8 sacks in 2011, his rookie year, as a pass rush specialist.
Irvin will be fine he's still learning. He wasn't the reason they lost. To pin it on him is being narrow-minded.
I have to wonder if some of you really watch games or not. Based on the posts, I have to say you don't.
I remember at one point the announcers on tv talking up Bruce Irvin. I'd like to see how he plays in upcoming games. Wanted his head after that play of course, but....
