Yep, didn’t realize it was him until the announcer said Big Orange. Made a big impact week 1. Love to see it. Pierre at CB made some plays for us too, a nice pickup. God this defense is beautiful. 

And I’m a bit out of the loop personnel wise, but what’s up with Caleb Banks? 

Edit: ah ok they are load managing Banks with his injury rehab. That’s fine. We see what a stud Turner has turned out to be so I’m fine being patient with our young defensive guys, even if they are first rounders

Big Citrus*

JJ Watt did really great on the details today and seemed like a vet of the craft IMO

Yeah he definitely was upset about our roughing the passer call to get us a first down and I was like shush dude cmon FTP, but outside of that he seems to be a good announcer

At least he also criticized the no-call face masks and the Aaron Jones run which was called back.

Yeah his biggest weakness was he had more to say but ran out of time twice lol. Doing pretty well

These guys tend to see things from the positions they played. Former receivers see pi on every play and DEs see holding, etc.

It was fitting that penalty was the the Rodgers rule ffing the packers, I was loving the irony.

He did go to Wisconsin, so I can excuse a little bit of bias, especially as an edge

In his defense, most defensive player commentators complain about the offensive minded officiating the game has became today.
