One defensive player on the three deep, that is a first.

I don’t understand the disrespect that Makai Jackson gets (not from us fans obviously). He is our best receiver. Hopefully others outside of App don’t see this message!

How long has it been since we didn’t have a 1st or 2nd team LB? Not that I can remember in the last 15-20 years.

Ironic, that's what i said was missing all year. The missile that would come out of no where for a stop either 20 yards downfield on a TE or in the backfield was missing. Poor angles, poor tackling, poor speed.
