No love for Mitchell

Mike Mitchell is not a superstar. He's damn lucky to be a starter in the league. What he brings us is intangible.

It's tangible. 3 picks a sack or 2, couple of FFs and the the defense went from mediocre to great. I know star has a lot to do with it and that's what the media sees. The media doesn't realize that we have more picks than their "Legion of Boom". John Gruden gave us the indearing yet unflattering nickname, "Legion of Whom?"

Clearly the numbers suggests he is one of the top Free Safeties in the league.  How can you argue?

Bull. Not every safety we bring in is a talentless nobody who simply knows the playbook. Mitchell is a pretty athletic guy and is pretty damn fast. He was clocked at 4.3. He's the reason Wallace didn't win the game for Miami last week.

 

I'm not saying he's elite either but he's playing good football right now. His intangibles make him great for this defense.

 

 

Our defensive line for as much praise as they get do not deliver pressure 24/7. Lets give the secondary some credit here.

Mitchell has 39 tackles, 2.5 sacks and 3 interceptions. Not bad, but this is his first year starting after being a back up for three years. Let Mike play a full season before we start ranking him among the league's best.

 

Why because Oakland didn't know how to use him.  They rant and rave about Barron and he is what a 2nd yr player.

 

Don't agree, sorry.  His numbers speak a lot.   His numbers says he is among the best.

I imagine that's how that hotel felt when the RoaringRiot came and then left. But I agree, it was clever.

Ha...we did a damn good job but I'm afraid we were no match for South Beach. That din of sin doesn't stop. I hit the wall around 930p on Sunday. It was a damn blast though. Depending on schedule dates I'm shooting for Baltimore and Tampa next year.

I feel that New Orleans would be a blast. I've never been and I've also never been apart of the Riot although I did look into the scheduling of it. I would have burned out by well before 930 pm Sunday.
