Did you not see Asante giving up his body, fully extending, and landing on his chest after falling from six feet in the air?

As fans, sometimes we forget these are mortal beings out there, not gods, robots, or superheroes. Very few actual humans can hit the ground like that without getting injured, let alone hop up and spirit. He probably got the wind knocked out of him. Give ASJ a friggin break.

I’m not giving Alohi shit either. Securing the ball was too important at that junction. How often does Mahomes throw gift picks in the 4th quarter. Not often.

As Derwin said, Asante talked about his interception all-week, he wanted another, and he went out and got it. Derwin said he was a 'dawg.'

My takeaways: I'm watching. It's great.

Popper was on fire tonight! I've never heard him so animated.

He says we need to give the young guys (a.k.a. Kenneth Murray) a chance. Guess he has a point.

TINTYPE Herbert - My Hero.

Nice Photoshop job, there Ghost! Call him "Field Marshall" Herbert...

He'll get chances. But he shouldn't keep Tranq off the field right now. He's our best LB right now.

It's pretty funny to go back and read the GDT after the fact. Emotions run so high and the players (except Herbert) and coaches all suck. I couldn't post during the game as I had to watch it from a sports bar as my house is for sale and the realtors scheduled showings during the game - ugh.

Yep...to hold onto the rock after hitting the ground like that was just...wow...just...wow...

Back to back ROTW?

Daniel was clear one of his shows: this is his job, he is not a fan of the team, per se. Then, tonight, he went fanboi cause he sees what WE see in Justin. lol

[UglyTruth]

Bullshit.

Dude how are you gonna come here AFTER the game and quote posts by posters made DURING the game when of course things are way more emotional since it’s in-the-moment.

Don’t quote posts made during the game hours after, it’s an idiotic thing to do.

If you wanted to argue those points then you should’ve quoted it during the game but maybe you didn’t because you thought the same thing then.

I stay away from the game thread regardless.

He looked like a receiver laying out and adjusting to make the catch. Terrific.
