Unsung Heroes

Fans that had to listen to the game and guess where the ball is.

Honestly can’t say because we just listened, kinda, but maybe the players that ran back the kickoff and interception only to have them called back by ghost calls.

That was Lane Sumner and Damien Washington, respectively.

Every poster has the right to their opinion. I also have a right to voice my opinion. I'm also a Vikings fan so....I have nothing but patience.

As a fellow Vikings, I couldn’t help but laugh (and cry). . 90 million $ well spent

Seriously? Vikings are awesome! Try being a lifelong Dolphins fan!

Back to the title track:
I believe CB’s performance is under appreciated by many. 0-picks,in three games, 1-2 sacks depending on who you believe. No seriously muffed play calls, wrong way handoffs or missed snap counts. Damn sure have been some growing pains but that’s part of growing. The guys are tuned in and need to start making some plays to help his confidence. Not every pass will be on target but CB needs to learn how to help his receivers help him. His reads seem accurate but mechanics and touch really could use some help. Not sure we have someone on staff that understands mechanics well enough to make the subtle adjustments that will make this better now. I know we don’t want him thinking mechanics on the field.

Defensively, Damien W. deserves the nod. Made some huge adjustments and definitely has carved out a role. His performance Saturday really solidifies my respect for him as a player.

YOU LIKE THAT?! YOU LIKE THAT?!

But it could be worse. You could have traded up to take a QB, but not Mahomes, not Deshaun Watson...but Mitchell friggin Trubisky. He's so bad, I hate it.

Or be a Chargers fan and watch them draft Ryan Leaf.

As a Packers fan, I’m also a big fan of both Cousins and Trubisky.

Anyway, back to title of thread. Here are my Top 3 Unsung Heroes on both sides of the ball so far in 2019:

Offense

1) Denver Krone (everyone, including me, was surprised to see Denver trot out there against Texas Tech at center...and he's held his own)
2) Coy Steel (with Willie going down, Coy being productive will be huge this season)
3) RJ Fitzgerald (does the dirty work along with Ryan Davis and Derryk Snell)

I didn't Logan because he was a known commodity based off the last few games last year and his special teams work in years prior.

Defense

1) Daniel Hardy (his improvement gives the coaches so much more flexibility in how they use Troy on offense/defense)
2) Michael Jobman (has been a starter but never was really considered "the guy" at LB due to his inability to make the big plays in the run game. That has changed in 2019 as Michael has looked better than ever against the run.)
3) Ty'Rhae Gibson (took his lumps against Texas Tech but has held his own and has that dog in him to go against the best WR when necessary)

And was curious how Regimbal has looked. Heard his name a couple of times. He is from that small College of the Siskiyous along with Hardy...

He's currently part of the 3rd string on the defensive line, behind guys such as Bryce Sterk and Marcus Ferriter at strong side end. He is part of the rotation however and does get PT.
