[Spazztic1]

Pittman = BEAST

 

[timBUCK2]

Statue of Liberty! LOL - That's awesome!

 

[BrutuStrength]

Statue of Liberty call was great.

 

[UpNorthBuckeye]

I don't think Youboty is gonna go early!! Does not look like a shut down corner today. Maybe it's the lights of the Dome!

 

[osugrad21]

21 - I know we agreed to disagree, but what was the story with that last big catch?

Great play by the WR no doubt. Have you ever played DB? Just curious...

 

[tedginn05]

Wow its been a long time since i've seen the Statue of Liberty play. Pittman's gonna push 200 yards today.

 

[SanAntonioBuck]

If Ginn runs inside, that would be a touchdown. AP is on fire today!

 

[Buckmark1]

Got to love Pittman running over people. Keep giving him the damn ball!!

 

[BuckeyeFlorida]

Pittman sure has progressed since last year. He looks better today than he has all year. He may really be the answer we've been watching for at TB!

Great job Antonio!

Have not... if you have experience, I'll defer to you.

I have played DB and its one of the hardest positions to play, your taught
to keep your eyes on the WR(as a Cornerback) and not to look at the QB, as a CB you catch shit from people all the time.

 

[Buckmark1]

We have to start getting to the QB defensively. Not sure he has even been hit today. Front four alone can't seem to get it done and its hard to blitz when they run so well.

 

[osugrad21]

Have not... if you have experience, I'll defer to you.

Not asking for that at all....but it is the toughest job on the field IMO. 90% of their great plays go unnoticed, but when the WR makes a great play, the DB gets the blame.

Just my perspective bro.

I'm only speaking for myself here--what's the point of going on and on and on about Youboty? Anyone with eyes can see that he is having a very tough game today.

It happens. The offense knows the plays being called, and therefore they begin with an advantage. They have made plays on him today. Everyone gets it.

He has played well for a couple years now. It's not clear to me why he should be taken out or who would even be able to adequately replace him. I just don't believe you should punish your best cover man by sitting him as soon as he plays poorly.
