The safety play from both guys looks like it’s getting better and better each week which is scary cuz that means the ceiling is high for them. Love the physicality and just when they hit guys they go down.

Poyser looks so much better than he did at the start of the season. I think he has finally adjusted to the level of competition and now he is playing confident. These two guys have quickly become difference makers for this defense.

I expect our Safeties to get beat deep at some points this year, but the fact they can fill and tackle has changed...everything so far. Watching the games without fear of a cutback or edge play going for 50+ is nice.

For real. I’m almost through the first half on my first rewatch and he’s everywhere. Making plays in the backfield, 40 yards downfield, punching out balls (pause), and even the **** that doesn’t show up in the stat sheet. They tried a throwback screen to Lucas, and the ball was low so he dropped it, but Thomas read the play perfectly and Tokyo Drifted around the lineman out in front, and if the ball isn’t dropped, Thomas blasts him for an 8 yard loss.

It’s almost impossible to articulate how much better the safety play has been through 5 weeks this year versus last year.

This is why I didnt understand why there was soo little talk about him after game.. Dude did EVERYTHING in a rivalry game.. Even ushered me to my seat.. There should of been 5 threads like toney the way he was balling.. Idgaf.. Impact player..
 
Love the Ramsey impact someone said earlier. This isn't a dig but Thomas is everything (and more) I thought Bubba Bolden would be for us.

Thomas was probably the best player on defense or close to it. He saved a number of big plays and stopped momentum numerous times.

We got some weird fans, he caused a fumble too but its like he already been marked by our fans so they only see the negative.

I remember after the ND game he was interviewed and actually gave some open and honest answers where he said he had to make some adjustments to game speed. Was talking about how on this level guys like Jadarian Price arent just big but big AND fast AF (Forgot who I was telling before season about him that he was legit and they dismissed his talent, anyway). That type of answer let me know he would had adjustment period to the level, still a young player with multiple years..

Dare I say he's on his way to becoming a top 5 miami hurricanes transfer portal pickup. Cam Ward, Jalen Phillips, Deriq King and Matt Lee are at the top for me. Beck, Brown and Thomas battling for that 5th spot

Beck goes in the top 5. QBs are kind of in a separate class all by themselves.

... I'd put both KJ and Rambo above Lee personally. Thomas keeps playing like he has and he'll make that list. Martinez head and shoulders above Brown for me at the moment, but he could make a run.
 
Animal. Shocking he wasn't a starter at Tennesee. Either he's developed tremednously or he had issues with coaches.
