    He probably won't get it due to Ware's ungodly numbers, but Al deserves it.

    AH is not the most valuable defensive player on our team. Keith bulluck is.

    Bulluck plays every down and never comes off the field. He was robbed of a pro bowl.

    Bulluck is maybe the best cover linebacker in the business and in the biggest game of the year he was in on 13 tackles 10 solo while AH was on the sidelines.

    I love AH but there are a lot of good players on our defense and bulluck is the best every down player we have.

    Awards like this are always about sacks and ints and not much more. Even AH is getting consideration in large part because of his career high 8.5 sacks.

    4-3 linebackers and 3-4 inside linebackers get screwed because they don't rush the passer all the time.

    Some of my fav defensive players.

    Troy palamalu. Among the league leaders in passes defended and ints but also solid in the box as a run defender. Harder to replace in that steelers defense than harrison.

    Jon Beason. The best player on a top 10 defense beason led the league in solo tackles with 110 and had 11 passes defended with 3 picks.

    Ray lewis. Hate him all we want but he is the heart of a defense that was among the league's best. In on over 100 tackles with 12 passes defended and 3 picks he also recovered 2 fumbles.

    Michael Griffin. Voted as an alternate to the pro bowl before he even had his best game. 2 giant pics against the steelers and when he gets a pic he knows what to do with it. Very similar stats to palamalu. Michael will be our ace in the hole on our SB run. Watch and see the whole league is going to know about this guy.


    No offense to AH but all these are every down players. They don't come out every other series for a blow and they are there in all situations.

    Remember bulluck's punt block and TD vs the bengals? That play came with 14 minutes left in the game when we were up 17-7. As it was we would have won without the play but that kind of play could have been the difference.


    Remember when he was doubtful to play in the bears game with the rib injury? He played and had 10 tackles. He has not missed a start in 7 years!
     
  6. Stats don't mean everything. Alberts presence changes the game. Even the hot dog vendors feel the effect of Big Al.

    Yeah but 45% of the time he is not in the game at all.

    Haynesworth is a worthy recipient of the award. He's the best tackle in the league. Ed Reed is also a worthy recipient, he's had an otherworldly 10 interceptions in the past 7 games. That's just crazy.
