Thanks. Caught the highlights the other night and watched it.

Did he play tonight? Still a part of the team?

 

[Dy-lan]

Pretty positive I saw him provide help over the top on a pass play late in the game

 

[TexasCane90]

Thought I saw him over run on a blitz and run by the runner

Dude has some closing speed - needs to get it under control lol

Yes he did - alot actually.

 

[ShadowSpring]

He definitely played and with the 1's

Sound like all our safeties

Development is a beautiful thing

With Lucas, Antonie back, Fitz hopefully moves to Nickle letting us rotate in 0 for blitz run downs. Clearly, JJ has his moments both great and bad. It would be nice to have Day in the mix at Safety. His speed was a nice addition.

Need to get him on the field more.

He popped off the screen last night

Was great to see. Was more under control. Had to have set a record for his most snaps in a row without a personal foul till the late hit, lol. Day's growth means we don't have to overstress Dunnigan and play him too many snaps, which I think makes Dunnigan more effective on net (kinda like how Fitz wouldn't have been as effective last year had we had to play him every snap). Hopefully something similar happens with Thornton when we get an outside corner or two back.

He brings a lot of flexibility to nickel and safety. If we must have Thornton on the field put him at S and Day at nickel. Even though Day is good at both.

He also brings a certain attitude

**** no!! Thornton misses WAY too many tackles to be the last line of defense! Saw it last night again. Guy just can’t tackle in space! Bro has missed like 6 sacks this season lol

 

[TheU1984]

Whatever reward Thornton can bring coming downhill, the risk in coverage and space far outweighs it unfortunately.

That reaction and closing speed on the TFL. Knew it was him without even seeing the number.

Need to keep getting his snaps up because he’s a dude.

They’re going to play him so I’d much rather him at SS than guarding wide receivers. In a perfect world he only blitzes but that’s not how it works.
